Die Baumkronenspinnen (Araneae) des Leipziger Auwaldes
, 2012 The canopy spiders of the floodplain forest in Leipzig have become a focus of ecological studies in recent years. In 2006 we sampled 30 tree canopies in the ‘Burgaue’ nature reserve with pyrethrum knock-down fogging, recording 502 adult spiders belonging

Mid‐Domain Effect and Wooded Habitat Shape Mediterranean Reptile Communities
Biological Diversity, EarlyView.Analyzing a large number of reptiles observed across protected areas in Central Italy, we tested whether the mid‐domain effect explains hump‐shaped richness–elevation patterns. Species richness was best predicted by the combined influence of geometric constraints and woodland cover, revealing two contrasting species clusters and offering a robust ...

Adaptive Genomic Divergence Across Altitudes in Capsella bursa‐pastoris
Biological Diversity, EarlyView.Genomic divergence was observed between high‐altitude and low‐altitude populations of Capsella bursa‐pastoris in China, consistent with an important role of ecological factors. Candidate adaptive loci associated with enhanced energy metabolism, photoprotection, and growth plasticity under altitudinal stress were identified.

Spatial metrics in fire ecology: seeking consistency amidst complexity
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Technological advances, including remote sensing, have led to a proliferation of metrics used in ecological studies to examine spatial patterns of fire regimes and their ecological effects. Researchers can use many different metrics to analyse spatial variation in both fire events and resulting fire regimes, including fire size, shape ...

Methane cycling in temperate forests
Carbon Balance and ManagementTemperate forest soils are considered significant methane (CH4) sinks, but other methane sources and sinks within these forests, such as trees, litter, deadwood, and the production of volatile organic compounds are not well understood. Improved understanding of all CH4 fluxes in temperate forests could help mitigate CH4 emissions from other sources and

Spatial Analysis of a mixed Beech, Spruce and Fir stand in the Eastern Alps [PDF]
, 2010 In a forest reserve, located in the Eastern Italian Alps, a 4 ha permanent plot has been set up in a beech-spruce-fir multilayered forest, left to natural evolution for more than 30 years, in order to detect stand structure and spatial patterns ...
