DIVERSITY OF CHIROPTERANS IN LIMESTONE FOREST AREA, BAU, SARAWAK

2005
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) A study on understory chiropteran diversity and relative abundance was examined using harp traps and mist nets around Bau Limestone area, Sarawak. A total of 23 species from four families were captured during 20 sampling nights. This represents approximately 24% of the total species recorded in Borneo.

Effects of limestone dust accumulation on composition of a forest community

Environmental Pollution (1970), 1972
Abstract Two sites in southwestern Virginia were sampled to determine the effects of dust accumulation on structure and composition of a forest community. The sites were similar in all respects except for dust accumulation. One site, the control, had essentially no dust accumulation, whereas the other had heavy accumulation from limestone processing ...

Positional Behaviours of François’ Langur (Trachypithecus francoisi) in the Limestone Forest of Nonggang, Guangxi, South-West China

Folia primatologica, 2019
Primates’ positional behaviours provide information for understanding relationships among morphology, ecology and behavioural flexibility. From September 2005 to August 2006, we collected data via instantaneous scan sampling on positional behaviours in ...

Effects of limestone dust accumulation on lateral growth of forest trees

Environmental Pollution (1970), 1973
Abstract Four species of trees from two sites in southwestern Virginia were used for annual ring measurements to determine the effects of limestone dust on lateral growth of forest trees. The sites were similar in all respects except dust accumulation.

Gaseous nitrogen losses from a forest site in the North Tyrolean Limestone Alps

Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2002
Microorganisms are responsible for the mineralisation of organic nitrogen in soils. NH4+ can be further oxidised to NO3- during nitrification and NO3- can be reduced to gaseous nitrogen compounds during denitrification. During both processes, nitrous oxide (N2O), which is known as greenhouse gas, can be lost from the ecosystem.

I.—On the Structure and Organisms of the Lower Limestone Shales, Carboniferous Limestone and Upper Limestones of the Forest of Dean

Geological Magazine, 1886
Sir Andrew Ramsay has described the Coal-fields of the Forest of Dean, Somersetshire, and Bristol as outliers of the great Coal-fields of South Wales; there is, however, a marked thinning out in the thickness of the Carboniferous rock in the Forest of Dean as compared with the development of those rocks in South Wales and Bristol.

Organic compounds in cryofolists developed on limestone under subalpine coniferous forest, Bavaria

Geoderma, 1985
Abstract Five Lithic Cryofolists in the Nationalpark Berchtesgaden, southern Bavaria were studied. The soils have organic layers with total thicknesses between 2.5 and 63 cm, whic directly overlie limestone. The site is occupied by a subalpine mixed needle forest ( Picea abies, Larix decidua ).

Mountain forest growth response to climate change in the Northern Limestone Alps

Trees, 2014
Growth response to climate differs between species and elevation. Fir is the most drought-tolerant species. The mountain forests are robust to the climatic changes until now. Alpine mountain forests provide a wide range of ecological and socio-economic services.

Effects of Dolomitic Limestone Application on Zinc Speciation in Boreal Forest Smelter‐Contaminated Soils

Journal of Environmental Quality, 2016
Anthropogenic activities at the HudBay Minerals, Inc., Flin Flon (Manitoba, Canada) mining and processing facility have severely affected the surrounding boreal forest ecosystem. Soil contamination occurred via a combination of metal and sulfuric acid deposition and has resulted in forest dieback and ineffective natural recovery. A community‐led effort
