Predominance of Precipitation and Temperature Controls on Ecosystem CO2 Exchange in Zoige Alpine Wetlands of Southwest China

open access: yes, 2011
Net ecosystem exchange (NEE) of carbon dioxide (CO2) was measured at Zoige wetland using the eddy covariance technique. Analysis of CO2 fluxes in two years showed Zoige wetland was a net CO2 sink of -47.1 and -79.7 g C m(-2) a(-1) in 2008 and 2009 ...

Biological traits of European pond macroinvertebrates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Whilst biological traits of river macroinvertebrates show unimodal responses to geographic changes in habitat conditions in Europe, we still do not know whether spatial turnover of species result in distinct combinations of biological traits for pond ...

Biogeography of Atlantic Salmon in the Cape Breton Highlands, Canada

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) populations have experienced significant declines in recent decades. In Canada, conservation efforts are divided into 16 designatable units (DUs) to address unique regional challenges among genetically distinct populations.

Embryonic and larval development of the endangered Chiapas killifish Tlaloc hildebrandi (Cyprinodontiformes: Profundulidae)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The early ontogeny of endemic freshwater fishes provides essential baseline biological information for conservation and management, particularly in species with restricted distributions and high vulnerability to habitat degradation, environmental change and population decline. This study presents the first detailed description of embryonic and

Adaptive management of Ramsar wetlands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The Macquarie Marshes are one of Australia’s iconic wetlands, recognised for their international importance, providing habitat for some of the continent’s more important waterbird breeding sites as well as complex and extensive flood-dependent vegetation

Glacial history affected phenotypic differentiation in the Alpine plant Campanula thyrsoides [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Numerous widespread Alpine plant species show molecular differentiation among populations from distinct regions. This has been explained as the result of genetic drift during glacial survival in isolated refugia along the border of the European Alps ...

Circumscription of three new taxa of Merismopedia‐like Cyanobacteria shows how far convergent evolution can go

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract The genus Merismopedia (Merismopediaceae, Chroococcales), characterized by rectangular colonies with cells arranged in regular perpendicular rows and columns, represents a challenging study system due to its limited cultivability. The genus recently underwent taxonomic revision using cultivation‐independent techniques and a polyphasic approach.
