Abstract Land is a non‐renewable resource that has a finite quantity, and efficient use of this resource is imperative for food security, development, and adaptation to climatic change. In this regard, land suitability analysis is a fundamental decision‐support system that ensures the allocation of this resource for an optimal production agenda while ...

Combining ability of sugarcane genotypes based on the selection rates of single cross families
This study evaluated the genetic potential of parents used in sugarcane genetic breeding programs based on the performance of previously conducted single crosses. The average selection rate of each family, predicted using Best Linear Unbiased Prediction (

Revisiting the predation paradox for the Wood Thrush, a declining Neotropical migrant
Abstract Despite an increased density of mid‐trophic level predators in urban and suburban areas compared to rural areas, the survival of smaller prey animals, including the eggs and chicks of nesting songbirds, often remains relatively high in these areas.

A hysteretic model predicts a time lag in the response of herbaceous layer variables (e.g., cover, diversity) to decreasing N deposition. To the contrary, virtually all such variables displayed a surprising sensitivity to decreased N. ABSTRACT Increases in nitrogen (N) emissions during the 20th century resulted in the atmospheric deposition of N ...

Seedling counts over 26 years revealed that wetter‐site temperate tree species struggle to recruit in warmer, drier years, whereas drier‐site species are more climate‐tolerant. Shadier forests buffered seedlings from heat and drought. Local soils and canopy cover strongly shaped outcomes, revealing considerable differences among species in climate ...

Warming influences nutrient removal in mesocosms across different substrates
Abstract Climate change is increasing stream temperatures globally, likely impacting stream ecosystem processes. We conducted a stream warming experiment at the Notre Dame Experimental Mesocosm Facility using N = 24 recirculating mesocosms to examine the effect of warming on biofilm colonization of organic and inorganic substrata and rates of nutrient ...
