Absorption of waves by large-scale winds in stratified turbulence
(American Physical Society, 2015-03)
The atmosphere is a nonlinear stratified fluid in which internal gravity waves are present. These waves interact with the flow, resulting in wave turbulence that displays important differences with the turbulence observed ...
Principal pitch of frequency-modulated tones with asymmetrical modulation waveform: A comparison of models
(Acoustical Society of America, 2014-03)
In this work, the overall perceived pitch (principal pitch) of pure tones modulated in frequency with an asymmetric waveform is studied. The dependence of the principal pitch on the degree of asymmetric modulation was ...
Complex trait‒environment relationships underlie the structure of forest plant communities
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2021-08)
Traits differentially adapt plant species to particular conditions generating compositional shifts along environmental gradients. As a result, community-scale trait values show concomitant shifts, termed trait‒environment ...
Exotic pine forestation shifts carbon accumulation to litter detritus and wood along a broad precipitation gradient in Patagonia, Argentina
(Elsevier Science, 2020-03-15)
Carbon dioxide emissions to the atmosphere from human activity continue to increase, and accordingly, strategies of biological carbon (C) sequestration in terrestrial ecosystems have been proposed. Forestation projects ...
Assessment of SAR speckle filters in the context of object-based image analysis
(Taylor & Francis, 2019)
Phenotypic selection mosaic for flower length influenced by geographically varying hawkmoth pollinator proboscis length and abiotic environment
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2019-09)
Biotic and abiotic context may affect the intensity of interspecific interactions and subsequently drive locally particular phenotypic selection patterns on interacting traits. We evaluated the geographical variation of ...
The latitudinal diversity gradient in South American mammals revisited using a regional analysis approach: The importance of climate at extra-tropical latitudes and history towards the tropics
(Public Library of Science, 2017-09-05)
The latitudinal diversity gradient has been considered a consequence of a shift in the impact of abiotic and biotic factors that limit species distributions from the poles to the equator, thus influencing species richness ...
Establishment of Nothofagus pumilio at upper treelines across a precipitation gradient in the northern Patagonian Andes
(Taylor & Francis, 2016-11)
Trees at upper treelines are exposed to more extreme environmental conditions than those at lower elevations. Climate changes at the upper treeline facilitate the establishment or intensify the mortality of trees and, ...
Seasonal trend analysis of minimum air temperature in La Plata river basin
(Springer Wien, 2021-04)
Regional economies that depend predominantly on agriculture and livestock are heavily affected by changes in air temperature, one such case are the activities in La Plata river basin (LPB). Some studies suggest that ...
Arid and semiarid rangeland responses to non-stationary temporal dynamics of environmental drivers
(Elsevier, 2022-08)
Temporal ecology is a growing research field aimed at understanding how temporal dynamics structure ecological systems in a changing environment. Ecosystems are exposed to accelerating environmental changes —mainly driven ...
