Effects of disturbance intensity and frequency on bacterial community composition and function. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Disturbances influence community structure and ecosystem functioning. Bacteria are key players in ecosystems and it is therefore crucial to understand the effect of disturbances on bacterial communities and how they respond to them, both compositionally ...

Increased vegetation disturbance intensity reduces soil nutrients while enhancing microbial network interactions [PDF]
Frontiers in MicrobiologyIntroduction and methodsVegetation disturbance intensity serves as a critical determinant of changes in soil nutrients and microbial communities. Karst ecosystems are highly fragile, and vegetation degradation has contributed to severe desertification in

Intensification of disturbance destabilizes productivity through effects on dominant species
Ecological Indicators, 2022 Disturbances, including anthropogenic disturbances, are integral to the maintenance of grassland ecosystems. Most research on anthropogenic disturbances focuses on the effects of intensification, yet cessation of disturbance can have equally important ...

Effects of temporal variability of disturbance on the succession in marine fouling communities in northern-central Chile [PDF]
, 2007 We investigated the effects of temporal variability in a disturbance regime on fouling communities at two study sites in a northern-central Chilean bay. Fouling assemblages grown on artificial settlement substrata were disturbed by mechanical removal of ...

Physical Characteristics of Section Coal and Rock Pillars Under Roof Shock Disturbances From Goaf
Frontiers in Physics, 2020 The stability of a rock strata structure is closely related to its response physical characteristics under external shock disturbance. The roof shock disturbance from goaf is usually one of the important factors that cause coal and rock pillar ...

Temporal variance of disturbance did not affect diversity and structure of a marine fouling community in north-eastern New Zealand [PDF]
, 2007 Natural heterogeneity in ecological parameters, like population abundance, is more widely recognized and investigated than variability in the processes that control these parameters.
