ABSTRACT Climate change significantly threatens biodiversity, particularly in freshwater ecosystems, which host many endemic and threatened species. Among them, aeglids stand out as strictly endemic, ecologically important and highly threatened crustaceans, making them a relevant model for investigating the impacts of climate change on aquatic ...

Quality and Conservation of Riparian Forest in a Mountain Subtropical Basin of Argentina
The aims of this work were to describe the conservation status of riparian forests located in a mountain subtropical basin of Tucumán province, Argentina, and assess how the quality of riparian forests is related with altitude, plant species richness, proportion of exotic species, and Total Suspended Solids (TSS) in adjacent rivers.

The Role of Nurse Trees in the Plant Community of Park Grassland: A Case Study in Southern Brazil
Tree species facilitate the assembly of park grassland plant communities by altering environmental conditions and promoting woody and herbaceous species under their canopies. They support biodiversity and have potential for ecological restoration but may contribute to woody nucleation.

Exergetic Model of Secondary Successions for Plant Communities in Arid Chaco (Argentina)
Ecosystems are open systems where energy fluxes produce modifications over plant communities. According to the state and transition model, plant formations are defined by changes in natural conditions and disturbs. Based on these changes, it is possible to define vectors that show the tendencies of the communities towards other states.
