Rainfall but not selective logging affect changes in abundance of tropical forest butterfly in Sabah, Borneo [PDF]

, 2003
We investigated the effects of rainfall on the distribution and abundance of the satyrine butterfly Ragadia makuta in selectively logged and unlogged forest on Borneo. In 1997-98, there was a severe El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) drought, and annual

Effects on major edaphic properties across various contexts: light drought vs. extreme drought

, 2023
Abstract Under climate change, there is a drastic increase in the frequency of drought events, which significantly impacts the biogeochemical processes in regional soil. However, the specific patterns of how different drought intensities affect the physicochemical and biological properties of soil remain unclear.

Agricultural drought in the Claromecó river basin, Buenos Aires province, Argentina [PDF]

, 2008
The dry and wet periods affecting the Claromecó Creek Basin in the south of the Province of Buenos Aires were analysed applying Palmer’s Model. Palmer’s Drought Severity Index was calculated regionally for five towns for the 1904-1999 period.

The spread of non‐native species

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The global redistribution of species through human agency is one of the defining ecological signatures of the Anthropocene, with biological invasions reshaping biodiversity patterns, ecosystem processes and services, and species interactions globally.

Global evidence of rapid flash drought recovery by extreme precipitation

Environmental Research Letters
Flash drought affects agricultural activities and water availability. However, the rate of flash drought development and termination and their controlling mechanisms remain mostly unexplored. Using climate reanalysis (ERA5) datasets, we examine the flash

The 2010-12 drought and subsequent extensive flooding: a remarkable hydrological transformation [PDF]

, 2013
Across most of the UK, the 2010‑12 period was remarkable in climatic terms with exceptional departures from normal rainfall, runoff and aquifer recharge patterns.

When Extreme Drought Becomes Commonplace

Eos
As drought becomes a more regular occurrence, a new study looks at the U.S. Drought Monitor, the nation’s preeminent drought classifier, to see how it has reflected climate change since 2000.

Phenological responses to extreme droughts in a Mediterranean forest

Global Change Biology, 2010
AbstractMediterranean regions are projected to experience more frequent, prolonged and severe drought as a consequence of climate change. We used a retractable rainfall shelter, to investigate the impact of extreme droughts on the development of Quercus ilex leaves, flowers and fruit.

Effects of extreme drought on agriculture soil and sustainability of different drought soil [PDF]

, 2014
Abstract. Content of microbial biomass carbon was selected as indicator for identifying effects of extreme drought on agriculture soil ecosystem. Through a series of prototype observation experiments, changing tendencies of microbial biomass carbon content and the proportion of microbial biomass carbon in soil organic carbon were identified.

The impacts of biological invasions

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological
