Latitudinal resource gradient shapes multivariate defense strategies in a long‐lived shrub

Ecology, Volume 103, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Plant defense against herbivores is multidimensional, and investment into different defense traits is intertwined due to genetic, physiological, and ecological costs. This relationship is expected to generate a trade‐off between direct defense and tolerance that is underlain by resource availability, with increasing resources being associated ...

Post‐disturbance evolution of a prograded foredune barrier during a sustained dynamic restoration project—the role of wind speed, wind direction and vegetation

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 47, Issue 15, Page 3435-3452, December 2022., 2022
Comparative photographs showing the change in dune morphology and vegetation cover at Doughboy Bay following a 12–15‐year period of sustained Ammophila arenaria control; from (a) densely vegetated shore‐aligned A. arenaria foredunes, to (b) sparsely vegetated wind‐aligned Ficinia spiralis nebkha.

Source areas of the Eastern Ebro Valley loess (NE Iberian Peninsula): Heavy mineral composition as a provenance indicator

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 47, Issue 15, Page 3611-3628, December 2022., 2022
The loess provenance areas of the Ebro and Móra basins are mainly the fluvial terraces of the Middle and Lower Ebro River, respectively, according to the analyses of very heavy minerals and particle size. The wind transport distances are relatively short (<100 km).

Geoarchaeological characterisation of a Younger Dryas site in the Alpine uplands: Cornafessa rock shelter (Italy)

Geoarchaeology, Volume 38, Issue 1, Page 35-56, January/February 2023., 2023
Abstract The effects of the Younger Dryas (YD) fluctuation on Late Pleistocene hunter‐gatherers' settlement and subsistence systems in the southern Alps are poorly known. This is primarily due to the scarcity of archaeological sites dating from the YD, in contrast with the extensive evidence available from the lateglacial interstadial and the early ...

Around seven decades river course shifting and bank erosion susceptibility of river Mujnai

River, Volume 1, Issue 2, Page 221-239, November 2022., 2022
Abstract River bank erosion is a destructive fluvio‐hydrological hazard particularly inhabited flood plain of the dynamic Himalayan foreland basin. Every year during monsoonal months, morphology of the landscape is continuously modifying through the dynamic river system.
