Disturbance intensity, disturbance extent and ocean climate modulate kelp forest understory communities [PDF]
Marine Ecology Progress Series, 2020 Disturbances often control community structure by removing large dominant species, allowing new species to colonize. Disturbances vary in intensity and extent, and their effects on resident communities can depend on local environmental conditions. We tested the effects of disturbance intensity and extent on different functional groups of understory ...

Multi-cyclone analysis and machine learning model implications of cyclone effects on forests
International Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation, 2021 Past studies of cyclones (hurricanes, typhoons, tropical cyclones) disturbance showed that meteorological, topographical, and biological factors affect the patterns of forest disturbance intensity but left open the extent to which these findings were ...

Dynamics of the electrojet during intense magnetic disturbances [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2018 Abstract. Hall current variations in different time sectors during six magnetic storms of the summer seasons in 2003 and 2005 are examined in detail: three storms in the day-night meridional sector and three storms in the dawn-dusk sector. We investigate the sequence of the phenomena, their structure, positions and the density of the polar (PE) and the
