Arthropod Assemblages in Desert Ecosystems of Alula County, Saudi Arabia. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
This study provides preliminary descriptions of arthropod communities in two desert habitats—arid thorn woodlands and wadis—across protected areas in AlUla County, in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Pitfall trapping over a 6‐day period yielded more than 2000 specimens representing at least 189 morphospecies, with ants (Formicidae) and springtails ...

Observed Hydroclimatic Trends and Their Implications Over Water-Cycle Dynamics in Montérégie, Southern Quebec, Canada. [PDF]

Glob Chall
In this study, we quantified the changes in different hydroclimatic parameters and evaluated their impacts on the groundwater resources across Montérégie. Using the GR4J+CemaNeige model, and multi‐decadal hydroclimatic records, the study shows the watershed's variability and identifies seasons and land cover scenarios where groundwater recharge ...

Higher Trophic Status Leads to More Diverse and Divergent Microeukaryote Communities Over Time in Urban Lakes From the Greater Paris (France). [PDF]

Environ Microbiol Rep
Microeukaryote dynamics across a eutrophication gradient in Greater Paris region lakes showed richness peaking at intermediate trophic levels and communities becoming more modular, variable, and less connected with higher trophic status compared to oligo‐to‐mesotrophic lakes.

Multiscale Soil Investigations: Physical Concepts And Mathematical Techniques [PDF]

, 2008
Soil variability has often been considered to be composed of “functional” (explained) variations plus random fl uctuations or noise. However, the distinction between these two components is scale dependent because increasing the scale of ...
