The Role of Biotic Interactions in the Niche Reduction Hypothesis: A Reply to Doherty and Driscoll [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The 'niche reduction hypothesis' (NRH) postulates that declining species can experience reductions in their realized niche breadth because environmental, biotic, and evolutionary processes reduce or amplify threats, or because a species' capacity to ...

Biotic and Abiotic Drivers of Soil Microbial Community Recovery and Ecosystem Change during Grassland Restoration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Tallgrass prairies have some of the deepest and most fertile topsoil on earth. Widespread conversion of these grasslands to agriculture has decreased soil Carbon (C) storage by exacerbating erosion and disrupting aggregates that protect C from ...

High-resolution carbon isotope changes in the Permian-Triassic boundary interval, Chongqing, South China; implications for control and growth of earliest Triassic microbialites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
High-resolution delta13C_CARB analysis of the Permian-Triassic boundary (PTB) interval at the Laolongdong section, Beibei, near the city of Chongqing, south China, encompasses the latest Permian and earliest Triassic major facies changes in the South ...

Earliest Triassic microbialites in the South China Block and other areas; controls on their growth and distribution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Earliest Triassic microbialites (ETMs) and inorganic carbonate crystal fans formed after the end-Permian mass extinction (ca. 251.4 Ma) within the basal Triassic Hindeodus parvus conodont zone.

Development of biotic indices for establishing and monitoring ecosystem health of the Swan-Canning Estuary [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The Swan-Canning Estuary is highly valued for its ecological, recreational, commercial and indigenous importance (e.g. Seddon 1972, Swan River Trust 2008, 2009).

Additional records of ichnogenus Rhizocorallium from the Lower and Middle Triassic, South China: implications for biotic recovery after the end-Permian mass extinction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
The ichnogenus Rhizocorallium is represented by complex burrow networks that have been interpreted as an indication of biotic recovery following major mass extinctions.

Post-Fire Abiotic and Biotic Filters Limit Native Grassland Recovery in a Pinus pinaster Plantation

open access: yesGrasses
Fires are an ecological force that often mediates the balance between native and exotic plants in communities. We monitored post-fire vegetation dynamics in a Pinus pinaster plantation and adjacent grasslands 9, 15, and 18 months after the fire ...

Weakened Biotic-Environmental Relationships in the Herb Layer After a Hundred Years of Recovery From Logging Disturbance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
A central debate in community ecology has been the degree to which communities bear the mark of history in their composition and structure. Modern forests have unique species compositions that are decoupled from gradients of temperature, precipitation ...
