Mowing Modulates the Biotic Filter of Expansive Species
Management type and expansive species influence plant community diversity in complex ways. Overall increase of expansive species cover acts as biotic filter in reducing the alpha and beta taxonomic and phylogenetical diversity. However, the filtering effect is modulated by management type, being more intense under mown grasslands.

We analyzed changes in the suitable habitat of K.ceratoides, which is the main food source of Tibetan antelopes, within the Tibetan antelope breeding grounds in the Western Kunlun Mountains. The study covered the period from the Mid‐Holocene to future projections and also examined the driving factors and shifting directions of the suitable habitat ...

Abstract Restoration treatments have been implemented in many of the dry conifer forests of the western United States. By decreasing forest density and increasing forest heterogeneity, these treatments are generally effective at meeting their primary objective of reducing the risk of uncharacteristically severe wildfire.

Effects of Seasonal Inundation on Riparian Plant Growth and Reproduction
ABSTRACT Timing and duration of flooding influence plant maintenance and reproduction, but the extent to which these factors affect different plant species and functional groups (terrestrial vs. riparian) remains unclear. Our study aimed to determine broad patterns of resilience of these functional groups to seasonal inundation.

Abstract Mountain hay meadows are a high‐elevation forage‐producing agroecosystem dependent on flood irrigation and nitrogen (N) fertilization to maintain yields, meaning management has great potential to influence greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. To assess GHG fluxes and inorganic N dynamics in meadows, field monitoring was established at four ranches ...
