Plant communities of the upper Murrumbidgee catchment in New South Wales and the Australian Capital Territory [PDF]
, 2013 Native vegetation of the upper Murrumbidgee catchment in southeast NSW and the Australian Capital-Territory (ACT) was classified into 75 plant communities across 18 NSW Vegetation Classes within nine Structural-Formations.

Archaeometry, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Mediterranean wetlands are one of Europe's most vital and endangered biodiversity hotspots. This study determined the carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen (δ15N) isotope values of modern plants to construct an isotopic framework by which to contextualize agropastoral management in and around past wetland ecosystems.

Mapping bee diversity with landscape‐level models to inform conservation
Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.Native bee conservation is complicated by limited distribution data and life history knowledge. However, recent state‐wide pollinator surveys, combined with species distribution models that account for biased datasets and capture regional habitat associations, present a strong foundation for informing essential conservation action.

Mitigating Environmental Externalities through Voluntary and Involuntary Water Reallocation: Nevada's Truckee-Carson River Basin [PDF]
, 1991 A transition from the era of building water projects and developing new supplies to an era of water reallocation is well underway in most of the West. Two decades ago, experts were debating the ability of western water institutions, originally conceived ...

Integrating ecological feedbacks across scales and levels of organization
Ecography, EarlyView.In ecosystems, species interact in various ways with other species, and with their local environment. In addition, ecosystems are coupled in space by diverse types of flows. From these links connecting different ecological entities can emerge circular pathways of indirect effects: feedback loops.

Ibis, EarlyView.Biodiversity conservation requires effective monitoring of ecological communities in remote locations, where limited accessibility often restricts survey efforts. Passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) is becoming an established method for measuring biodiversity, facilitated by the increased accessibility of autonomous recording units.

Responses of SOM decomposition to changing temperature in Zoige alpine wetland, China [PDF]
Wetlands Ecology and Management, 2015 Alpine wetlands are considered to be very sensitive to future climate warming. Understanding changes in decomposition rates (Rs) of soil organic matter (SOM) and temperature sensitivity (Q 10) in alpine wetlands, under the scenarios of a warming climate and decreasing soil moisture, is important for predicting their carbon (C ...
