Do natural disturbances have significant effects on sandy beach macrofauna of Southeastern Brazil? [PDF]
Zoologia (Curitiba), 2019 The role of morphodynamic features such as grain size, swash climate and wave action on the macrofauna of beaches are well-known. However, few studies have investigated natural disturbances as potential drivers of temporal community variations.

Low faunal diversity on Maltese sandy beaches : fact or artefact? [PDF]
, 2003 Eight sandy beaches on Malta and two on Gozo were sampled for macrofauna to test the hypothesis that Maltese beaches have an intrinsically low diversity.

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 5, May 2026.Biodiversity dynamics in heterogeneous landscapes is the result of a complex interplay between movement processes of organisms within and between habitat patches, and niche filtering processes due to spatially varying environmental conditions. Disentangling the relative influences of these different processes on community assembly and dynamics is a ...

Pre-impoundment Limnological Study of the Strawberry River in Northeastern Arkansas [PDF]
, 1971 A study of pre-impoundment limnological characteristics of the Strawberry River was made from August, 1967 to June, 1968. Two collecting stations were established, one upstream which would not be inundated and a lower station which would be inundated ...

Hydrocarbon influence on denitrification in bioturbated Mediterranean coastal sediments [PDF]
, 1997 An in situ experiment has been carried out inbioturbated Mediterranean coastal marine sediments (Gulfof Fos) in order to study the influence of hydrocarbons ondenitrification after 1, 4 and 6 months. In theabsence of hydrocarbons in the control sediments,

Performance of eight soil moisture sensors as affected by soil texture and electrical conductivity
Vadose Zone Journal, Volume 25, Issue 3, May/June 2026.Abstract Accurate soil moisture information helps farmers, ranchers, and land managers make informed decisions, and this information often comes from in situ measurements. In situ sensors operate based on a variety of technologies, and there is an ongoing need to determine the accuracy of these sensors across different soils.

Interactions between shorebirds and benthic invertebrates at Culbin Sands lagoon, NE Scotland: effects of avian predation on their prey community density and structure [PDF]
, 2007 In the North Sea, during autumn-winter, intertidal flats often receive a massive influx of migratory shorebirds (wildfowl, waders and seabirds), which utilise the high prey densities that are available.

Restoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 4, May 2026.Hydrologic wetland restoration in the Prairie Pothole Region is a common management practice to facilitate habitat and ecosystem recovery after degradation or drainage. Little is known about the recovery of sediment microbial communities relative to other organisms, such as vegetation, fish, and macroinvertebrates, even though they are critical for ...

Soil biota in grassland, its ecosystem services and the impact of management [PDF]
, 2007 In the search for sustainable grassland systems, self-regulating processes in the soil become increasingly important. Soil biota play an important role in these processes and in the provision of various ecosystem services. For grassland systems important
