Although sulfur and nitrogen deposition had limited effects on plant functional diversity, the study found that leaf traits played a key role in maintaining plant community stability under acid deposition conditions. ABSTRACT Artificial sulfur (S) and nitrogen (N) addition experiments often fail to accurately simulate acid deposition in terms of type ...

An Analysis of Vegetation and Microbiome Recovery in Abandoned Agricultural Fields
This study investigated the natural recovery of biodiversity in formerly cultivated fields in the Eastern Cape, South Africa, by comparing plant and bacterial communities across different successional ages. We found that diversity levels in old fields began to resemble natural conditions for both community types, indicating a positive recovery ...

The Influence of short-term land use change on soil evolution in the centre-south coastal areas of Sardinia [PDF]
The land use change in short-term (time and space) in the Mediterranean context can be induced by phenomena like destruction of the autochthonous plant species, land abandonment, overgrazing, fire, urbanization (above all for touristic purpose), etc ...

Patterns and Driving Mechanisms of β‐Diversity in Mountain Plant Communities of Arid Regions
We analyzed taxonomic and phylogenetic β‐diversity patterns in plant communities along the northern slope of the central Kunlun Mountains in arid northwestern China. Species turnover dominated β‐diversity, with climatic distance—particularly temperature—being key drivers.

We analyzed changes in the suitable habitat of K.ceratoides, which is the main food source of Tibetan antelopes, within the Tibetan antelope breeding grounds in the Western Kunlun Mountains. The study covered the period from the Mid‐Holocene to future projections and also examined the driving factors and shifting directions of the suitable habitat ...

Season, Microclimate and Shoreline Disturbance Interactively Shape Bird Functional Diversity
This study examined the seasonal and spatial patterns of bird functional diversity across natural and urbanized coastal sites in Ghana. We found that natural shorelines undergo significant seasonal functional reorganization, whereas urbanized areas maintain stable, generalist‐dominated communities year‐round, losing the temporal dynamics that support ...
