Anthropogenic noise and atmospheric absorption of sound induce amplitude shifts in the songs of Southern House Wren (Troglodytes aedon musculus)
(Springer, 2021-01-11)
Birdsong is an important feature that mediates several aspects of bird reproduction, such as mate choice, territory defense, and individual recognition. Any factor that impairs vocal transmission through the environment ...
Changes in Abiotic Factors Drive Non-native Plants Colonization in Subtropical Mangroves
(2021-10-01)
The colonization and spread of non-native species are recognized as a critical driver of environmental change in mangrove ecosystems. However, environmental factors that favor non-native plant colonization in mangroves are ...
Contribution of Anthropogenic Factors and Climate Variables to Human Cystic Echinococcosis Mortality in Chile (2001-2011)
(Mary Ann Liebert, 2020)
Here we assess the effect of weather and anthropogenic environmental variables, particularly urbanization, on cystic echinococcosis mortality in Chile from 2001 to 2011 using a nonparametric regression model, multivariate ...
Tree species diversity driven by environmental and anthropogenic factors in tropical dry forest fragments of central Veracruz, Mexico
(Biodiversity and Conservation, 2009)
Running away to sea: a theoretical model of anthropogenic factors contribution to microplastics transportation from rivers to the ocean
(Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp), 2022-06-30)
O lixo antropogênico pode ser perigoso tanto para o meio ambiente como para as espécies que o habitam, incluindo os humanos. Um componente importante do lixo são partículas de plástico que podem ser classificadas em ...
Gaps, biases, and future directions in research on the impacts of anthropogenic land-use change on aquatic ecosystems: a topic-based bibliometric analysis
(2021)
Anthropogenic land use change (ALUC) satisfies human needs but also impacts aquatic ecosystems. Aquatic ecosystems are intrinsically linked with terrestrial landscapes, an association that is already recognized as a key ...
Interactive effects of abiotic, hydrological and anthropogenic factors on fish abundance and distribution in natural run-of-the-river shallow lakes
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2009-07)
Ecological processes in lowland rivers are mostly dominated by hydrology and its interactions with other environmental factors. Fish–habitat relationships in rivers are also influenced by human impacts. In this study, we ...
The ecohydrology of ecosystem transitions: a meta‐analysis
(Wiley, 2015-07)
A vast body of literature demonstrated that anthropogenic disturbances such as overgrazing and fire are key drivers of abrupt transition between vegetation types in ecosystems. In this study, we propose that the hydrological ...
Background values, distribution and contamination of metals in the sediments of the Pontevedra Ria (NW Spain)
(Soil & Sediment Contamination, 2007)
Thirty-seven surface sediment samples were taken in the Pontevedra Ria (NW Iberian Peninsula), and metal concentrations (Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Ni, Pb, and Zn) and organic/inorganic parameters were determined in order to ...
