Juncus in Northern Patagonian Wetlands
Juncus is the most species-rich genus of Juncaceae in northern Patagonian wetlands. Therefore, the correct identification of Juncus taxa is crucial in floristic studies of the region’s wetlands. Since Juncus is taxonomically ...
Afforestations and wetlands, are they a good combination? Study of water fluxes in two cases of Patagonian wetlands
(Wiley, 2014-06)
Wetlands are ecosystems that play a key role in maintaining biodiversity and associated economies (e.g. agriculture and livestock) because they are reservoirs of water and carbon. Globally, these environments have been ...
Effects of coypu (Myocastor coypus) abundances and diet selection on a wetland of the Patagonian steppe
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2013-03)
We assessed diet selection, impact on vegetation, and explored habitat relationships with marsh birds of coypus(Myocastor coypus) in a steppe lagoon in Argentinean Patagonia. In two consecutive springs, abundance and spatial ...
Environmental Quality and Aquatic Invertebrate Metrics Relationships at Patagonian Wetlands Subjected to Livestock Grazing Pressures
(Public Library of Science, 2015-10)
Livestock grazing can compromise the biotic integrity and health of wetlands, especially in remotes areas like Patagonia, which provide habitat for several endemic terrestrial and aquatic species. Understanding the effects ...
On Argentocypris sara gen. nov., sp. nov. (Ostracoda) from the Patagonian wetlands of Argentina
(Brill Academic Publishers, 2014-05)
We describe Argentocypris sara, a new genus and species from a Patagonian lake in the province of Neuquén, Argentina. The genus and species clearly belong to the tribe Eucypridini, and as such have a rather isolated ...
Identifying high priority conservation areas for Patagonian wetlands biodiversity
(Springer, 2021-03)
Given the multiple stressors affecting freshwater ecosystems and the limited resources devoted to their management, effective conservation of freshwater biodiversity requires regional prioritization. Patagonian wetlands ...
Afforestations and wetlands, are they a good combination? Study of water fluxes in two cases of Patagonian wetlands
(Wiley, 2015-04)
Wetlands are ecosystems that play a key role in maintaining biodiversity and associated economies (e.g. agriculture and livestock) because they are reservoirs of water and carbon. Globally, these environments have been ...
Particulate organic carbon is a sensitive indicator of soil degradation related to overgrazing in Patagonian wet and mesic meadows
(Springer, 2017-09)
Patagonian meadows are key for the development and sustainability of rural environments. However, they have been degraded due to a combination of weather conditions and overgrazing. Total soil organic carbon (TOC) has been ...
A NULL MODEL TO STUDY COMMUNITY STRUCTURE OF MICROCRUSTACEAN ASSEMBLAGES IN NORTH PATAGONIAN URBAN WETLANDS (39-41 degrees S, CHILE)
(BRILL ACADEMIC PUBLISHERS, 2014)
Grazing intensity levels influence C reservoirs of wet and mesic meadows along a precipitation gradient in Northern Patagonia
(Springer, 2015-11)
Wet meadows are important ecosystems for forage production and as carbon reservoirs in semi-arid areas. In Patagonia, Argentina, large areas of wet meadows have been classified as overgrazed by livestock. The objective of ...
