Higher meadow connectivity leads to greater plant species richness but also increases plant community similarity. Functional connectivity explains plant diversity patterns better than structural connectivity. ABSTRACT The increasing global habitat fragmentation has led to a marked decline in landscape connectivity, posing a severe threat to ...

Shrub biomass was directly determined by mean winter temperature and soil pH, whereas species richness had no significant direct effect. Climatic factors modulated the biodiversity–ecosystem functioning relationship indirectly through biomass, underscoring winter temperature as a critical driver for predicting ecosystem responses to climate change ...

Abstract Humans have influenced ecosystems for millennia, and social changes can have notable ecological effects. Recent human influence on ecosystems is exemplified by the collapse of fire regimes circa 1900 in the western United States due to increased grazing, fire suppression, and declining Indigenous fire use.

Effects of wildfire on the distribution of mammals and birds in a working shrub‐steppe landscape
Abstract The intensity, frequency, and extent of wildfire have increased drastically in the sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) ecoregion within Washington, USA, over the last few decades. Wildfire on this landscape, already modified and fragmented by agriculture and other disturbances, may challenge the persistence of wildlife that depend on continuous ...

Heat stress (35°C ± 2°C, 7 day) impaired growth performance, hepatic function, oxidative balance, and autophagy in broilers. Yinhuang oral liquid (YOL), a plant‐derived functional herbal formulation, alleviated these adverse effects by improving feed efficiency, reducing serum TBA, increasing GSH, and decreasing MDA. YOL also enhanced autophagy‐related

Effects of oiling common raven nests on ravens and greater sage‐grouse in sagebrush ecosystems
We oiled and sham‐oiled raven nests across 7 sites in the Great Basin to measure the effects of egg‐oiling on co‐occurring populations of ravens and sage‐grouse. Oiling raven eggs ended embryonic development of oiled eggs, reduced raven densities, resulted in more than a doubling of nest‐survival probabilities of sage‐grouse nests, and spurred ...
