Monitoring ecosystem functioning is a significant step towards detecting changes in ecosystem attributes that could be linked to land degradation and desertification in drylands worldwide. Remote sensing-based vegetation indices (VIs) and l...
Diversity of biocrust-forming cyanobacteria in a semiarid gypsiferous site from Central Spain [0.03%]
西班牙中部半干旱盐碱地生物地衣形成蓝藻的多样性
Concha Cano-Díaz,Pilar Mateo,M Ángeles Muñoz-Martín et al.
Concha Cano-Díaz et al.
Cyanobacteria are a key constituent of biocrusts, communities dominated by lichens, mosses and associated microorganisms, which are prevalent in drylands worldwide and that largely determine their functioning. Despite their importance, ther...
Changes in rainfall amount and frequency do not affect the outcome of the interaction between the shrub Retama sphaerocarpa and its neighbouring grasses in two semiarid communities [0.03%]
降水量和降水频率的变化不影响半干旱生境中的植物竞争关系

Santiago Soliveres et al.
We evaluated the net outcome of the interaction between the shrub Retama sphaerocarpa, our target plant, and different herbaceous neighbours in response to changes in the magnitude and frequency of rainfall events during three years. The ex...
Ecology and functional roles of biological soil crusts in semi-arid ecosystems of Spain [0.03%]
西班牙半干旱生态系统中生物土壤结皮的生态和功能作用
Fernando T Maestre,Matthew A Bowker,Yolanda Cantón et al.
Fernando T Maestre et al.
Biological soil crusts (BSCs), composed of lichens, cyanobacteria, mosses, liverworts and microorganisms, are key biotic components of arid and semi-arid ecosystems worldwide. Despite they are widespread in Spain, these organisms have been ...
Microbial Diversity of the Hypersaline Sidi Ameur and Himalatt Salt Lakes of the Algerian Sahara [0.03%]
阿尔及利亚撒哈拉沙漠Himalatt盐湖和超咸Sidi Ameur盐湖中的微生物多样性
