Forest Stand Structure and Primary Production in relation to Ecosystem Development, Disturbance, and Canopy Composition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Temperate forests are complex ecosystems that sequester carbon (C) in biomass. C storage is related to ecosystem-scale forest structure, changing over succession, disturbance, and with community composition.

Temporal effects of disturbance on community composition in simulated stage‐structured plant communities

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2018
In an era of global environmental change, understanding how disturbance affects the dynamics of ecological communities is crucial. However, few studies have theoretically explored the potential influence of disturbance including both intensity and ...

Interoceptive Awareness Mediates Effects of Sleep Disturbance on Pain Outcomes in Chronic Pain Patients

open access: yesIntegrative Medicine Reports
Background: Sleep disorders are common in adults with chronic pain and are multifactorial. Recent evidence suggest sleep disturbance may affect interoceptive awareness (IA) in healthy adults.

Impact of anthropogenic disturbances on beetle communities of French Mediterranean coastal dunes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
In coastal dunes, influenced by anthropogenic activities such as tourism, it is important to determine the relative influence of environmental factors at different spatial scales to evaluate the sensitivity of local communities to disturbances.
