Modelling biodiversity scenarios in madagascar under both the effects of climate change and anthropogenic deforestation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Madagascar is widely known for its exceptional biodiversity which is, for the terrestrial part, mainly concentrated in tropical forests. This biodiversity is severely threatened by both climate change and deforestation.

Climate Change and Soil Biodiversity

open access: yes, 2022
Worldwide environmental change can altogether affect all the soil biodiversity and related administrations. These effects can be straightforwardly or in a roundabout way connected to the shift in the climatic boundaries (for example, Temperature). Soil biodiversity is broader than some other climate on the globe when all living structures are thought ...

Community stability is related to animal diversity change

open access: yesEcosphere, 2022
Understanding the drivers of community stability in times of increasing anthropogenic pressure is an urgent issue. Biodiversity is known to promote community stability, but studies of the biodiversity–stability relationship rarely consider the full ...

Biodiversity and Climate Change

open access: yesCurrent Science, 2018
Biodiversity is continually transferred by a changing climate. Conditions change across the face of the planet, sometimes slowly, sometimes in larger increments leading to rearrangements of biological associations. Now, a new type of climate change brought about by human activities is being added to this natural variability, threatening to ...

Agricultural intensification and climate change are rapidly decreasing insect biodiversity

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2021
Major declines in insect biomass and diversity, reviewed here, have become obvious and well documented since the end of World War II. Here, we conclude that the spread and intensification of agriculture during the past half century is directly related to

Hemispheric asymmetries in biodiversity: a serious matter for ecology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
[FIRST PARAGRAPH] Penguins have been receiving a lot of bad press lately. They are considered somehow counter, spare, strange. Unlike most plant and animal groups, they do not show a peak of species richness towards the equator and a decline towards the ...
