Woody Formations in a Mesothermic Valley of Tarija Province, Bolivia
In the Bolivian Andean mountain range there is a series of mesothermic valleys with a particular arboreal flora. This study describes the arboreal and scrub flora of the Camacho river basin, and its distribution dependent upon numerous ecological factors including anthropogenic influence.

Forage, carbon accumulation, and soil physical characteristics in a crop–livestock production system
Abstract Crop‐livestock systems may improve land use and food security; however, heavy grazing can impair the soil physical properties and reduce the forage accumulation of subsequent crops. The study was conducted to evaluate the impact of mechanically harvest or low‐intensity grazing on the physical properties of soil and the productivity of an ...

SCIBA is a geo‐dataset of damaging rainfall‐related landslides and floods that occurred throughout 113 years in a Mediterranean study area. It aims to support the Disaster Risk Reduction community by providing extensive data for testing cause‐effect models that predict rainfall thresholds preceding landslide and flood events.

Fossil pollen records indicate that Patagonian desertification was not solely a consequence of Andean uplift [PDF]
The Patagonian steppe—a massive rain-shadow on the lee side of the southern Andes—is assumed to have evolved ~15–12 Myr as a consequence of the southern Andean uplift. However, fossil evidence supporting this assumption is limited. Here we quantitatively

Individuals of Asellus infernus, a sulfidic subterranean population of the Asellus aquaticus species complex from southeastern Romania (left) and surface individuals of A. aquaticus (right). Extreme differences in phenotype are seen comparing the subterranean and surface individuals as adults (top panels) and as embryonic samples (bottom panels ...

Abstract Warming and drying conditions are driving increases in wildfire size and annual area burned across the forests of British Columbia, Canada. The impact of increasing fire activity on these forests remains unclear as examination of concurrent changes to fire severity is lacking.

Synoptic Air Mass Controls on Global and Regional Precipitation
Abstract Despite the complexity of the physical mechanisms behind precipitation, many studies linking precipitation to weather types or atmospheric circulation focus on a single variable, oversimplifying the interactions involved. An alternative approach to examining precipitation involves the use of synoptic air masses, which provide a multivariate ...
