The effect of vegetation patterns on Aeolian mass flux at regional scale: a wind tunnel study [PDF]

, 2012
Although insight on the effect of vegetation pattern on Aeolian mass transport is essential for re-planting degraded land, only limited knowledge on this effect is available.

Lack of capture‐induced mortality of neonates associated with variation in handling protocols

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
We found that handling metrics (e.g., handling time, number of collectors, and age at capture) had limited or no influence on the survival of neonatal mule deer, desert bighorn sheep, and Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep within the first few days of life. Furthermore, we found that handled mule deer and Rocky Mountain bighorn neonates were recruited at a ...

Jasmonates enhance plants tolerance grown in Cd‐contaminated environments: A comprehensive overview

Annals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.
Jasmonates (JAs) enhance plant tolerance to cadmium (Cd) stress by activating antioxidant defences but may reduce Cd uptake, limiting their effectiveness for phytoremediation. This review compiles studies that evaluated the effects of JA application on plants grown in Cd‐contaminated environments. Abstract Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic heavy metal and one of

Climate adaptation and functional constraints drive pollen evolution in Apiales

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Pollen grains exhibit remarkable morphological diversity, shaped by selective pressures from environmental factors and mechanical constraints. Here, we investigate macroevolutionary patterns of pollen morphology in Apiales, an order of angiosperms with significant ecological and geographical diversity, to disentangle the roles of climate and ...

Salinity tolerance of halophyte Atriplex nummularia L. grown under increasing NaCl levels Tolerância à salinidade da halófita Atriplex nummularia L. cultivada em níveis crescentes de NaCl

Revista Brasileira de Engenharia Agrícola e Ambiental, 2006
The current study reports effects of salt stress on growth, K+ nutrition and organic composition of Atriplex nummularia. The upper limit of the NaCl gradient imposed on the plants was close to seawater salinity (600 mM).

Notes on the germination of the endangered species Sclerolaena napiformis (Chenopodiaceae) [PDF]

, 2013
Sclerolaena napiformis is found on fertile plains in northern Victoria and southern New South Wales and is endangered Australia-wide. Introductory work on its germination shows that seeds cannot germinate until the woody fruit has broken down.

Mineralogy of Soil‐Free Bare Crusts on Native Dryland Plant Habitats in Mackenzie Basin, South Island, New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, January 2026.
Late Cenozoic silty and sandy sediments in the semi‐arid Mackenzie basin have been eroded and redeposited almost entirely from nearby Mesozoic greywacke basement. Fine (commonly micron scale) phyllosilicate flakes, including clays, are randomly distributed and randomly oriented, and the sediments are porous.

Atividade biológica em solo salino sódico saturado por água sob cultivo de Atriplex nummularia Biological activity in saline sodic soil saturated by water under cultivation of Atriplex nummularia

Revista Ciência Agronômica, 2011
A salinidade constitui-se um sério fator limitante à agricultura, pois a maioria das culturas agrícolas é sensível à salinidade, sendo muito afetadas pelos efeitos nocivos dos sais.

28 years of vegetation change (1978 – 2006) in a calcareous coastal dune system [PDF]

, 2010
Changes in vegetation structure and composition over a 28 year period (1978–2006) following removal of human-induced disturbances, were examined in a calcareous coastal dune system in Point Nepean National Park (380 19’S, 1440 41’E) in south-eastern ...
