Community structure of macromoths along altitudinal gradients in Korea
Journal of Asia-Pacific Biodiversity, 2021 This study was aimed to (1) document the macromoth species richness and diversity along altitudinal gradients, (2) investigate the community structure along altitudinal gradients, and (3) analyze the similarity within each altitude using nonmetric ...

The distribution of mosquitoes across an altitudinal gradient in the Galapagos Islands [PDF]
Journal of Vector Ecology, 2017 An avian malaria parasite (genus Plasmodium) has been detected consistently in the Galapagos Penguin (Spheniscus mendiculus) and less frequently in some passerines. We sampled three resident mosquito species (Aedes taeniorhynchus, Culex quinquefasciatus, and Aedes aegypti) using CDC light and gravid traps on three islands in 2012, 2013, and 2014.

Grassland biomass dynamics along an altitudinal gradient in the Pampa [PDF]
Journal of Range Management, 2000 Above and below-ground biomass and necromass dynamics were assessed for 3 grassland sites located at 550, 850, and 1,025 m elevation in Sierra de la Ventana range (38 degrees 1'S 62 degrees 2'W) in Argentina. The objective was to determine if differences existed in dry matter structure, mycorrhizae infection, net primary productivity (NPP) partitioning

Lauraceae Along an Altitudinal Gradient in Southern Brazil [PDF]
Floresta e Ambiente, 2019 ABSTRACT We performed a phytosociological study on an altitudinal gradient in Lauráceas State Park (Parque Estadual das Lauráceas/PR), aiming to describe the Montane Atlantic Rain Forest, to verify the importance of Lauraceae, and to evaluate the communities’ successional stage.

Integrating effects of species composition and soil properties to predict shifts in montane forest carbon-water relations. [PDF]
, 2018 This study was designed to address a major source of uncertainty pertaining to coupled carbon-water cycles in montane forest ecosystems. The Sierra Nevada of California was used as a model system to investigate connections between the physiological ...
