Fly me to the canopy: Diptera communities in oak forest crowns as bioindicators of stand decline
Diptera diversity: Oak decline increases the overall Diptera diversity, particularly in saproxylic and floricolous guilds, likely due to more open canopies and greater deadwood and floral resource availability. Family responses: Dolichopodidae, Empididae, Hybotidae and Anthomyiidae thrive in declining stands, whereas Mycetophilidae and other fungus ...

Ship icing may lead the ship and crew in great jeopardy. Usually, predictions of such ice build-up are based on the modelling of the heat fluxes capable of freezing sea water originated from wave-ship interactions.

Forest degradation increased termite‐mediated litter decomposition, whereas no such effect was detected in undisturbed forests. Reduced ant predation and altered forest conditions were associated with higher termite abundance and faster litter decomposition.

From quantity to quality: the evolution of forest restoration in the United Kingdom
Abstract Introduction Over the past century, forest cover in the United Kingdom has increased threefold. However, the pathways, achievements, and shortcomings of this expansion remain underexplored. Objectives This study analyses the drivers, implementation, and legacies of forest restoration in the United Kingdom before and after 1990, which is when ...

Effects of Root Architecture on Plant Anchoring in Noncohesive Sediment
Abstract Plant roots stabilize sediment in engineered and natural landscapes, but we lack a general understanding of how root architecture affects anchoring forces. Existing models can accurately simulate root breakage and soil failure, but such models primarily rely on experimentally calibrated empirical relations between root geometry characteristics

Effect of a Diabatic Forcing on Downslope Windstorms
The effect of a diabatic forcing on downslope windstorms is analytically investigated in a 2-dimensional steady hydrostatic system. The environmental flow is assumed to have a uniform horizontal velocity with a constant buoyancy frequency. A diabatic forcing is considered in which the material derivative of potential temperature is proportional to ...

Fire–Moisture Interactions Shape Recovery Trajectories Across Temperate Vegetation Communities
Future recovery from fire will be governed not only by characteristics of the fire itself and those of the affected vegetation community, but also by the extent to which these characteristics interact with prevailing hydro‐climatic conditions. Favourable soil moisture conditions post‐fire increase the likelihood that ecosystems will recover to a stable
