Spatiotemporal snowmelt patterns within a high Arctic landscape, with implications for flora and fauna

open access: yesArctic, Antarctic, and Alpine Research, 2018
Snow conditions are important drivers of the distribution and phenology of Arctic flora and fauna, but the extent and effects of local variation in snowmelt are still inadequately studied.

Spatial Polarization of the Ecological Footprint Distribution [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2014
The international allocation of natural resources is determined, not by any ethical or ecological criteria, but by the dominance of market mechanisms. From a core-periphery perspective, this allocation may even be driven by historically determined structural patterns, with a core group of countries whose consumption appropriates most available natural ...

Spatial pattern and driving factors of cropland ecosystem services in a major grain-producing region: A production-living-ecology perspective

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2023
Exploring the spatial patterns and driving factors of cropland ecosystem services and the production-living-ecology are essential to implementing spatial zoning management and optimization, especially in major grain-producing regions.

Self‐structuring in spatial evolutionary ecology [PDF]

open access: yesEcology Letters, 2007
AbstractSpatial self‐structuring has been a focus of recent interest among evolutionary ecologists. We review recent developments in the study of the interplay between spatial self‐structuring and evolution. We first discuss the relative merits of the various theoretical approaches to spatial modelling in ecology.

Post-fire soil nutrient dynamics in a tropical dry deciduous forest of Western Ghats, India

open access: yesForest Ecosystems, 2019
Background The effect of forest fire on soil is complex and relatively less understood than its above ground effect. Understanding the effect of fire on forest soils can allow improving management of valuable forest ecosystems as adequate and proper ...

Control efforts of crown‐of‐thorns starfish outbreaks to limit future coral decline across the Great Barrier Reef

open access: yesEcosphere, 2023
Crown‐of‐thorns starfish (CoTS) naturally occur on coral reefs throughout the Indo‐Pacific region. On Australia's Great Barrier Reef (GBR), outbreaks of CoTS populations are responsible for ecologically significant losses of corals, and while they have ...
