Disturbance history can increase functional stability in the face of both repeated disturbances of the same type and novel disturbances. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2020 AbstractClimate change is expected to increase the incidences of extremes in environmental conditions. To investigate how repeated disturbances affect microbial ecosystem resistance, natural lake bacterioplankton communities were subjected to repeated temperature disturbances of two intensities (25 °C and 35 °C), and subsequently to an acidification ...

Disturbance history mediates climate change effects on subtropical forest biomass and dynamics [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2019 The responses of forest communities to interacting anthropogenic disturbances like climate change and logging are poorly known. Subtropical forests have been heavily modified by humans and their response to climate change is poorly understood.

Frontiers in Plant ScienceDisturbance alters environmental conditions in forests. Plants growing in forests with different disturbance histories in diverse environments may adopt varying life history strategies, but few studies focus on this effect.

Disturbance history alters the development of the HPA axis in altricial nestling birds [PDF]
PeerJGlucocorticoid (GC) hormones regulate the vertebrate stress response and are secreted by the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis. Acute elevation of GCs is thought be adaptive because it promotes physiological and behavioural changes that allow ...

Sleep disturbance after acute coronary syndrome: A longitudinal study over 12 months
PLoS ONE, 2022 Background Sleep disturbance has been associated with poor prognosis in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). This study examined the course of sleep disturbance and associated factors in patients with ACS who were followed for one year.

Geographical shifts in the successional dynamics of inland dune shrub communities
Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Species' environmental requirements and large‐scale spatial and evolutionary processes determine the structure and composition of local communities. However, ecological interactions also have major effects on community assembly at landscape and local ...
