Dendrochronology reveals the response of a riparian forest to water management in an arid river basin [0.03%]
树木年轮揭示了干旱流域河岸森林对水资源管理的响应
Noelle K Patterson,Xiaoli Dong,Belize A Lane et al.
Noelle K Patterson et al.
Riparian corridors in arid climates sustain life in otherwise inhospitable environments, creating zones of ecological and cultural importance. However, rivers in arid climates are often managed to provide water for human populations at the ...
Water availability boosts multidimensional plant diversity in a temperate grassland despite anthropogenic disturbances [0.03%]
水分可利用性提高了温带草地的多维植物多样性以缓解人为干扰的影响

Baoshuang Hu et al.
Global changes present significant challenges to biodiversity. However, how plant communities respond to climate change under various anthropogenic disturbances, and how different species groups contribute to these responses, remains poorly...
Does tidal marsh restoration lead to the recovery of trophic pathways that support estuarine fishes? [0.03%]
潮间带生态恢复能否重建支持河口鱼类的营养传输通道？
Megan D Pagliaro,Susan E W De La Cruz,Isa Woo et al.
Megan D Pagliaro et al.
Evaluation of tidal marsh restoration success is typically based on the recovery of habitat size and target species. However, food-web structure may provide valuable insight into ecosystem functioning trajectories. Here, we studied restored...
Non-native prey availability and over-compensatory density dependence drive population dynamics of a native fish predator [0.03%]
外来猎物的可用性和原生鱼类捕食者种群密度的过补偿型依赖驱动其种群动态
Madaline M Cochrane,Timothy J Cline,Travis S Schmidt et al.
Madaline M Cochrane et al.
Understanding the factors that regulate population dynamics is crucial for conserving imperiled species. Bull trout (Salvelinus confluentus), a piscivorous salmonid and one of North America's most threatened cold-water species, has declined...
Plant community composition and dominant species drive stability in aboveground production of biofuel agroecosystems [0.03%]
能源作物种植体系中群落组成和优势种决定了其生产力稳定性的差异性机制研究

The relationship between diversity and stability remains a key question in ecology and has important consequences for understanding the sustainability (and profitability) of bioenergy cropping systems; yet to date, little work has been done...
Native megafauna (Bison bison) act as a surprising inhibitor of cedar tree expansion in a Great Plains grassland [0.03%]
本土大型哺乳动物（美国野牛）出人意料地抑制了大平原草甸内的柏树扩散
Sidney Noble,Zak Ratajczak,Brynn Noble
Sidney Noble
In the Central Great Plains of North America, fire suppression is causing transitions from grasslands to shrublands and woodlands. This woody encroachment alters plant community composition, decreases grassland biodiversity, undermines key ...
The impact of urbanization on genetic connectivity of 10 mammal species in New Jersey [0.03%]
城市化对新泽西州10种哺乳动物物种基因交流的影响
Helen E Chmura,Gretchen Fowles,Kristine L Pilgrim et al.
Helen E Chmura et al.
Rapid human modification of landscapes around the world has made understanding how humans affect the genetic connectivity of wildlife populations urgent. The consistency of anthropogenic impact on genetic connectivity across taxa is unclear...
Effects of forest disturbances and an introduced ungulate on carbon storage in boreal forests [0.03%]
干扰和外来有蹄类动物对苔原森林碳储存的影响
Rachael Moran,Shawn J Leroux,Yolanda F Wiersma et al.
Rachael Moran et al.
Selective browsing by ungulates alters forest structure and composition, with research suggesting that these effects may be amplified in recently disturbed forests and in novel environments (i.e., introduced ungulates). Though the net effec...
Besides aridity, plant communities are a non-negligible factor in determining soil bacterial and fungal diversity [0.03%]
除了干旱，植物群落是确定土壤细菌和真菌多样性的不可忽略的因素
Nier Su,Qing Zhang,François Rineau et al.
Nier Su et al.
The impact of aridity on above- and belowground biodiversity can be profound. However, it remains unclear how drought stress influences belowground biodiversity through the complex interplay of soil quality, plant communities, and the direc...
Scale-dependent controls on forest gaps shaped by large trees and topographic heterogeneity [0.03%]
大型树木和地形异质性控制的森林空隙的尺度依赖性
Jiale Chen,Tommaso Jucker,Xiaoran Wang et al.
Jiale Chen et al.
The size, number, and distribution of forest canopy gaps vary significantly across spatial scales, yet their relationships with underlying drivers, such as large trees, topography, and soil properties, remain insufficiently comprehended. We...
