Where does the forest come back from? Soil and litter seed banks and the juvenile bank as sources of vegetation resilience in a semiarid Neotropical forest
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2019-11)
The existence of reservoirs from which dominant plants recruit after disturbances is a key factor in ecosystem resilience. Where do woody species regenerate from in the semiarid Neotropical Chaco forest? Is land use affecting ...
A Community Disaster Resilience Index for Chile
(2023)
Although Chile is one of the countries most exposed to natural hazards, to date there is no national index that shows the differences in resilience levels within the country. This study develops a community resilience index ...
Economic and social resilience accounts for the recovery of Ibiza's tourism sector
Islands tend to offer almost everything needed to become a tourist destination, such as good weather, beaches and landscapes, but it also requires the provision of competitively priced transport services, lodging and ...
Baseflow and water resilience variability in two water management units in southeastern Brazil
(2022-01-01)
Changes in climate and water demand in densely populated regions increasingly affect hydrological systems, and, in turn, impact socioeconomic conditions. In this case study, we identify how the hydrogeological frameworks ...
System-level assessment of reliability and resilience provision from microgrids
(Elsevier Ltd, 2018)
Microgrids are emerging to coordinate distributed energy resources and locally increase reliability to expected
events and resilience to extreme events. Furthermore, by deploying their inherent flexibility, grid-connect ...
Representation and modeling of the Chilean electric power network for seismic resilience analysis
(2020)
Electric Power Networks (EPNs) are exposed to the occurrence of highly disruptive natural events such as large earthquakes. The physical damage to EPN components due to seismic events can seriously compromise the ability ...
Fire effects on the soil seed bank and post-fire resilience of a semi-arid shrubland in central Argentina
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2018-02)
Soil seed bank is an important source of resilience of plant communities who suffered disturbances. We analysed the effect of an intense fire in the soil seed bank of a semi-arid shrubland of Córdoba Argentina. We asked ...
