Groundwater depth shaped A. sparsifolia density and individual biomass. Carbon pools aided population persistence but couldn't offset deep groundwater's negative impact. Groundwater limits exceeded climate effects on desert vegetation persistence.

Can late flushing trees avoid attack by moth larvae in temperate forests?
We investigated moth larvae (Lepidoptera) developing in temperate forests in Central Europe shortly after the tree budburst (the "brumata-viridana complex").

Riparian shading controls instream spring phytoplankton and benthic diatom growth [PDF]
Dissolved oxygen (DO) concentrations showed a striking pattern in a multi-year study of the River Enborne, a small river in SE England. In each of three years (2010-2012), maximum DO concentrations were attained in mid-April, preceded by a period of ...

Divergent Trends in Insect Disturbance Across Europe's Temperate and Boreal Forests
Across temperate and boreal Europe, tree mortality caused by insects has risen during the 21st century, yet interactions among insect species and their host trees are complex. While mortality from wood‐boring insects in conifers has increased, defoliation caused by multiple moth species has declined.

ABSTRACT Temperature sensing to adjust developmental rates and phenological responses to different climatic environments is critical for plant survival. Population‐based thermal‐time threshold models predict linear relationships between temperature and, for example, seed germination rates (speed), but the mechanisms are not known.

Cold hardening and dehardening in Salix [PDF]
The variation in cold hardiness in Salix in the autumn was investigated using clones of different geographic origins. In late growing season, the variation was small and inversely related to a phenotypic variation in potential growth rate.

Urbanization, environmental stabilization and temporal persistence of bird species: A view from Latin America [PDF]
Background. A scarcely studied consequence of urbanization is the effect of temporal stabilization of the environment on bird communities. This alteration is thought to dampen environmental variations between day and night, seasons and years, promoting a

Breeding studies in walnut (Juglans regia L.) are usually time consuming due to the long juvenile period and therefore, this study aimed to determine markers associated with time of leaf budburst and flowering-related traits by performing a genome-wide ...

Management of service crops for the provision of ecosystem services in vineyards: A review [PDF]
Service crops are crops grown with the aim of providing non-marketed ecosystem services, i.e. differing from food, fiber and fuel production. Vineyard soils face various agronomic issues such as poor organic carbon levels, erosion, fertility losses, and ...
