Multiple interacting environmental drivers reduce the impact of solar UVR on primary productivity in Mediterranean lakes
(Nature Research, 2020-12)
Increases in rainfall, continental runoff, and atmospheric dust deposition are reducing water transparency in lakes worldwide (i.e. higher attenuation Kd). Also, ongoing alterations in multiple environmental drivers due ...
Terrestrial ecologists should stop ignoring plastic pollution in the Anthropocene time
(Elsevier, 2019-06)
The massive production of plastic started in mid 20th century. Today, only 60 years later and despite its obvious benefits, plastic pollution is ubiquitous, influencing all global environments and the planet's biota, ...
Need for global conservation assessments and frameworks to include airspace habitat
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2020-09)
The pervasive human-driven decline of life on Earth points to the need for transformative change in the airspace.
The role of soybean production as an underlying driver of deforestation in the South American Chaco
(Elsevier, 2017-07)
South America's tropical dry forests and savannas are under increasing pressure from agricultural expansion. Cattle ranching and soybean production both drive these forest losses, but their relative importance remains ...
Drivers of N2O Emissions from Natural Forests and Grasslands Differ in Space and Time
(Springer, 2020-06)
Understanding the drivers of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is one of the most critical global environmental challenges to mitigate the increasing global temperature. Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions are highly variable in ...
Environmental and anthropogenic drivers of soil methane fluxes in forests: Global patterns and among-biomes difference
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2020-09)
Forest soils are the most important terrestrial sink of atmospheric methane (CH4). Climatic, soil and anthropogenic drivers affect CH4 fluxes, but it is poorly known the relative weight of each driver and whether all drivers ...
Natural and human forcing in recent geomorphic change; case studies in the Rio de la Plata basin
(Elsevier Science, 2010-06)
An analysis of geomorphic system's response to change in human and natural drivers in some areas within the Río de la Plata basin is presented. The aim is to determine whether an acceleration of geomorphic processes has ...
Environmental and anthropogenic drivers of soil methane fluxes in forests: Global patterns and among‐biomes differences
(Wiley & Sons, 2020-09)
Forest soils are the most important terrestrial sink of atmospheric methane (CH4). Climatic, soil and anthropogenic drivers affect CH4 fluxes, but it is poorly known the relative weight of each driver and whether all drivers ...
Synergy between roads and disturbance favour Bromus tectorum L. invasion
(PeerJ, 2018-08-31)
Background. Global change produces pervasive negative impacts on biodiversity worldwide. Land use change and biological invasions are two of the major drivers of global change that often coexist; however, the effects of ...
Urbanisation drivers and underlying mechanisms of terrestrial insect diversity loss in cities
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2021-08)
1. Urbanisation is one of the main land-use changes behind global insect collapse. Despite that previous studies have described the negative effects of urbanisation on insect communities, so far there is no synthesis that ...
