Ecosystems, 2019 Ecotones can form hot spots of biodiversity by containing species from multiple ecosystems. Because biodiversity is often linked to ecological function, we posit that rates of key ecological functions are highest at ecotones and decline away from them ...

, 2019 1. Drylands play a dominant role in global carbon cycling and are particularly vulnerable to increasing temperatures, but our understanding of how dryland ecosystems will respond to climatic change remains notably poor. Considering that the area of drylands is projected to increase by 11%–23% by 2,100, understanding the impacts of warming on the ...

Nutritional ecology, functional ecology and Functional Ecology [PDF]
Functional Ecology, 2009 ‘Nutritional ecology’ is a bit like ‘art’: easy to recognize but difficult to define. We believe that this is, in part, because the field has progressed on a broad (even diffuse) front, and has lacked cohesion or commonality of purpose. Our aim in this special feature is to bring together leading researchers drawn from across this spectrum and have ...

Study on the Optimization of Territory Spatial "Urban-Agricultural-Ecological" Pattern Based on the Improvement of "Production-Living-Ecological" Function under Carbon Constraint. [PDF]
Int J Environ Res Public Health, 2022 The spatial layout of the “Production–Living–Ecological” (PLE) function and the spatial optimization of the “Urban–Agricultural–Ecological” (UAE) pattern are the key points and difficulties in territorial space planning. This paper analyzes their spatial
