Congo Basin Carbon Cycle Responses to Global Change. [PDF]

Glob Chang Biol
Understanding the resilience of the Congo Basin carbon cycle in the face of current and future pressures requires a detailed understanding of its response to past and present drivers of change. Building on a pantropical framework of drivers and possible regional mechanisms for resilience, this review provides the first comprehensive assessment of Congo

Pesticide effects on soil fauna communities—A meta‐analysis

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 60, Issue 7, Page 1239-1253, July 2023., 2023
Our study highlights that pesticide use has significant detrimental non‐target effects on soil biodiversity, eroding a substantial part of global biodiversity and threatening ecosystem health. This provides crucial evidence supporting recent policies, such as the European Green Deal, that aim to reduce pesticide use in agriculture to conserve ...

Wetlands in drylands: Use and conflict dynamics at the human–wildlife interface in Mbire District, Zimbabwe

African Journal of Ecology, Volume 60, Issue 4, Page 1184-1200, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Wetlands in drylands are important resources for agriculture and wildlife, but competition may result in human–wildlife conflict. We sought to understand conditions under which people and wildlife sharing wetlands in drylands may coexist. We applied track counts in riverine wetlands in the dry and wet season (n = 36 days) using belt transects,

Above‐ and belowground drivers of intraspecific trait variability across subcontinental gradients for five ubiquitous forest plants in North America

Journal of Ecology, Volume 110, Issue 7, Page 1590-1605, July 2022., 2022
By studying how ITV is structured along environmental gradients among species adapted to a wide range of conditions, we can begin to understand how individual species might respond to environmental change. Our results show that generalisable trait–environment relationships occur primarily aboveground, and only accounted for a small proportion of ...

Fine‐scale foraging habitat selection by two diving central place foragers in the Northeast Atlantic

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 11, Issue 18, Page 12349-12363, September 2021., 2021
Understanding animal‐habitat relationship at local scale is crucial in ecology, particularly if population are managed with regional units. This is the case of grey seals and harbour seals, whose trends in number vary among region in the Northeast Atlantic. The results suggest that local conditions might have a strong influence on their spatial ecology,

Altitude shapes the environmental drivers of large‐scale variation in abundance of a widespread mammal species

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 10, Issue 1, Page 119-130, January 2020., 2020
We used direct detections of 9,439 badgers Meles meles, to estimate badger relative abundances in 703 small agricultural regions of metropolitan France and a Bayesian modeling approach to identify the main environmental determinants influencing badger abundances.

Caractérisation des humus et des litières par la faune du sol. Intérêt sylvicole [PDF]

Revue Forestière Française, 1986
Les recherches effectuées en forêt d'Orléans dans le cadre du projet PIREN-CNRS «Influence des monocultures de résineux et alternatives possibles» ont permis de mettre en évidence l'intérêt de l'étude de la faune du sol en sylviculture. Parmi les groupes zoologiques étudiés, on peut distinguer différentes sensibilités aux conditions de milieu régnant ...
