Invasion of a Legume Ecosystem Engineer in a Cold Biome Alters Plant Biodiversity

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Plant ecosystem engineers are widely used to combat land degradation. However, the ability of those plants to modulate limiting abiotic and biotic resources of other species can cause damage to ecosystems in which they become invasive.

Collapse, reorganization, and regime identity: breaking down past management paradigms in a forest-grassland ecotone

Ecology and Society, 2021
The identity of an ecological regime is central to modern resilience theory and our understanding of how systems collapse and reorganize following disturbance.

Interactive community responses to disturbance in streams: disturbance history moderates the influence of disturbance types [PDF]

Oikos, 2019
Both disturbance history and disturbance type act to structure communities through selecting for particular species traits but they may also interact. For example, flooding selects for species with flood‐resistant traits in streams, but those traits could make communities susceptible to other disturbances and so could cause shifts in community ...

Forest succession after a major anthropogenic disturbance: a case study of the Jewish Forest in the Bohemian Forest, Czech Republic

Journal of Forest Science, 2014
The knowledge of forest development after disturbances, particularly anthropogenic disturbances, is of major importance for forest management. Many areas of mountain forests in Europe have been affected by human activities such as felling and livestock ...

Drought legacies mediated by trait trade‐offs in soil microbiomes

Ecosphere, 2021
Soil microbiomes play a key role in driving biogeochemical cycles of the Earth system. As drought frequency and intensity increase due to climate change, soil microbes and the processes they control will be impacted.

Millennial-Scale Disturbance History of the Boreal Zone

, 2023
AbstractLong-term disturbance histories, reconstructed using diverse paleoecological tools, provide high-quality information about pre-observational periods. These data offer a portrait of past environmental variability for understanding the long-term patterns in climate and disturbance regimes and the forest ecosystem response to these changes ...

Structure and origin of mountain Norway spruce in the Bohemian Forest

Journal of Forest Science, 2011
Information on the historical background of the present forest conditions is needed for proper decisions on forest management. Disturbances play a major role in the formation of forest structure and composition.

Monitoring of Vegetation Disturbance around Protected Areas in Central Tanzania Using Landsat Time-Series Data

Remote Sensing, 2021
Understanding vegetation disturbance around protected areas (PAs) is critical as it significantly affects the sustainable conservation of wildlife. However, there is a lack of analyses of consistent long-term data on vegetation disturbance. In this study,

Autoregulation disturbance events correlate with history of loss of consciousness in mild traumatic brain injury patients

Bali Journal of Anesthesiology, 2022
Introduction: Cerebral autoregulation disturbance may compromise cerebral blood flow, thereby increasing the risk of hypoperfusion, which increases the risk of loss of consciousness (LOC).
