Climate-Suitable Planting as a Strategy for Maintaining Forest Productivity and Functional Diversity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Within the time frame of the longevity of tree species, climate change will change faster than the ability of natural tree migration. Migration lags may result in reduced productivity and reduced diversity in forests under current management and climate ...

Integrating land sharing and sparing paradigms in grassland ecology: A perspective on balancing livestock production and biodiversity

open access: yesGrassland Research, Volume 4, Issue 4, Page 389-395, December 2025.
This study explores how dispersed grazing (grassland sharing) enhances biodiversity and ecosystem health compared to concentrated grazing (grassland sparing) in Inner Mongolia's grasslands, balancing livestock production with conservation. Abstract The increasing global demand for livestock products (meat, milk, and wool) drives overgrazing, leading to

Aboveground Net Primary Productivity in Grazed and Ungrazed pastures: Grazing Optimisation Hypothesis or Local Extinction of Vegetation Species [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The controversy that has surrounded herbivory studies in the last few decades prompted our investigation to establish the extent to which herbivore optimisation hypothesis or compensatory growth evidence is real.

Charge-Asymmetry of the Nucleon-Nucleon Interaction [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Based upon the Bonn meson-exchange model for the nucleon-nucleon ($NN$) interaction, we study systematically the charge-symmetry-breaking (CSB) of the $NN$ interaction due to nucleon mass splitting.

Long‐term mowing regulates the responses of above‐ and below‐ground net primary productivity stability to water and nitrogen addition in a temperate steppe

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 12, Page 3517-3529, December 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Global change, including atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition, shifts in precipitation patterns, and anthropogenic activities such as mowing, have great impacts on the structure and functions of grassland ecosystems.

DIRECT ESTIMATION OF ABOVEGROUND FOREST PRODUCTIVITY THROUGH HYPERSPECTRAL REMOTE SENSING OF CANOPY NITROGEN [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The concentration of nitrogen in foliage has been related to rates of net photosynthesis across a wide range of plant species and functional groups and thus represents a simple and biologically meaningful link between terrestrial cycles of carbon and ...

Spatial patterns and environmental constraints on ecosystem services at a catchment scale [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Improved understanding and prediction of the fundamental environmental controls on ecosystem service supply across the landscape will help to inform decisions made by policy makers and land-water managers.

Spatial–Temporal Variation of ANPP and Rain-Use Efficiency Along a Precipitation Gradient on Changtang Plateau, Tibet

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2019
Aboveground net primary productivity (ANPP) and rain-use efficiency (RUE) are important indicators in assessing the response of ecosystems to climate change.

Quantification of the effect of lagomorph herbivory on grazing resources in a semiarid rangeland

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract Lagomorphs are selective herbivores that can strongly influence rangeland condition if their population densities increase through predator release. However, the effect size of lagomorph herbivory has not previously been quantified for the semiarid rangelands of the southwestern United States, where their predators are suppressed.
