Risks to pollinators and pollination from invasive alien species
(Nature Publishing Group, 2017-12)
Invasive alien species modify pollinator biodiversity and the services they provide that underpin ecosystem function and human well-being. Building on the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform for Biodiversity and ...
Do xerophytic and mesophytic perennial grasses differ in soil resource capture and allocation? A field 15N experiment
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2021-12)
In rangelands, pattern and processes below-ground are important for a complete understanding of their ecology. Recent studies in grass-dominated communities in Europe, North America and South America indicate that root ...
Keystones in a Tangled Bank: Ecological network studies highlight the importance of individual species to community conservation
(American Association For The Advancement Of Science, 2012-03)
In the past decade, ecologists have increasingly applied complex network theory (1, 2) to ecological interactions, both in entire food webs (3) and in networks representing ecological interactions, especially those between ...
Local perceptions on social-ecological dynamics in Latin America in three community-based natural resource management systems
(Resilience Alliance, 2015-04)
Several examples of community-based natural resource management in Latin American social-ecological systems exist in which communities control the management of common-pool resources. Understanding community perceptions ...
Ecological characterization of a tick community across a landscape gradient exhibiting differential anthropogenic disturbance in the Atlantic Forest ecoregion in Argentina
(2018-02)
An ecological analysis of a tick (Ixodida: Ixodidae) community across a landscape gradient presenting differential anthropogenic disturbance in the Atlantic Forest ecoregion in Argentina was performed. Ticks were collected ...
Large-scale impacts of multiple co-occurring invaders on monkey puzzle forest regeneration, native seed predators and their ecological interactions
(Elsevier, 2016-04)
Most ecosystems of the world are being increasingly invaded by a variety of alien species. However, little is known about the combined ecological impacts of multiple co-occurring invaders. We assessed the impact of a ...
Community Structure of Helminth Parasites of Leptodactylus bufonius (Anura: Leptodactylidae) from Northeastern Argentina
(Academia Sinica, 2012-12)
The main goals of this study were to determine the richness and diversity of helminth parasites of Leptodactylus bufonius at the component and infracommunity levels and evaluate whether the composition of the parasite ...
High quality residues from cover crops favor changes in microbial community and enhance C and N sequestration
(2016)
The objective of the study was to evaluate the effect of a change in management on the soil microbial community and C sequestration. We conducted a 3-year field study in La Pampa (Argentina) with rotation of sorghum (Sorghum ...
Spatial patterns of bird community similarity: Bird responses to landscape composition and configuration in the Atlantic forest
(Springer, 2010-01)
Studies dealing with community similarity are necessary to understand large scale ecological processes causing biodiversity loss and to improve landscape and regional planning. Here, we study landscape variables influencing ...
