En las comunidades acuáticas, la complejidad del hábitat modifica la dinámica y la estructura, ya que la diversidad y abundancia aumentan conforme se incrementan las estructuras físicas emergentes del sustrato, como los troncos hundidos, que son sitios ...

Biodiversity can influence forest productivity, but this does not necessarily translate into higher provision of wood‐based Nature's contributions to people (NCP), as only a subset of the wood produced is used for each NCP. Biodiversity–NCP relationships therefore require further assessment.

ABSTRACT As a crucial puzzle piece of deep space exploration, exploring small bodies can provide significant scientific insights and valuable mineral resources. Unlike missions to the Moon and Mars, small‐body missions pose distinct technical challenges, including communication delays, weak gravity, and uncertain environments. This paper reviews a full

Coarse woody debris requirements for maintaining land snail diversity in managed spruce forests
Coarse woody debris (CWD) plays a crucial role in maintaining biodiversity in forest ecosystems by supporting habitat complexity and influencing soil properties.

Restoring Lateral Connectivity to Anthropogenic Riverscapes: Six Lessons From Stage Zero
ABSTRACT Centuries of river modification, particularly straightening and incision, have severely reduced lateral connectivity between rivers and their floodplains. As a result, Stage 0 riverscapes, characterised by high lateral connectivity (e.g., anastomosing or wetland riverscapes), are now rare in anthropogenic landscapes.

Uncertainty in Precipitation Estimates Warrants Greater Consideration in Debris‐Flow Research
Abstract Quantitative precipitation estimates (QPEs) may provide a valuable data resource for investigations of postfire debris flows. In mountainous regions where debris flows typically occur, gauge coverage can be sparse; gridded QPEs offer remotely sensed and/or physics‐based precipitation estimates where no direct measurement is available. However,

Natural regeneration on coarse woody debris
In the Pacific Northwest temperate forest, coarse woody debris provides a great substrate for natural regeneration of many conifer species. Logs in decay class III and IV are most suitable for seedling growth.

Edge effects are a major consequence of forest fragmentation, altering forest structure by changing the amount of standing dead trees (snags) and downed coarse woody debris (CWD).

Abstract Alternative stable state theory in aeolian geomorphology describes the occurrence of bare and vegetated aeolian dunes in response to long‐term climatic and ecological drivers. Transitions between states, as well as their co‐occurrence (bistability), can arise from perturbations to drivers, disturbance, and associated biophysical feedbacks ...
