(Cambridge Univ PressNew YorkEUA, 1999)
Rock outcrops as potential biodiversity refugia under climate change in North Patagonia
(Taylor & Francis, 2015-05)
Background: Under climate-change scenarios, rock outcrops, by providing microclimatically diverse habitats, different from those of surrounding zonal vegetation matrix, may serve as climatic refugia and thereby facilitate ...
From micro- to macroevolution: insights from a Neotropical bromeliad with high population genetic structure adapted to rock outcrops
(Nature Publishing Group, 2020-07-17)
Geographic isolation and reduced population sizes can lead to local extinction, low efficacy of selection and decreased speciation. However, population differentiation is an essential step of biological diversification. ...
Desiccation tolerance in Pleurostima purpurea (Velloziaceae)
(SPRINGER, 2010)
Previous works suggested that Pleurostima purpurea (Velloziaceae-Barbacenioideae) shows a remarkable capacity to endure desiccation of its vegetative tissues. P. purpurea occurs in monocotyledons mats on soil islands in ...
Shape Preferred Orientation (SPO) methodology for oriented hand specimens of rock and outcrops through digital image processing
(Universidad Nacional de Colombia - Sede Medellín - Facultad de Minas, 2015-07-01)
The shape-preferred orientation (SPO) is a technique, which allows the study of the fabric of deformed rocks and understanding its dominant deformational style and partitioning. This work presents SPO results and methodological ...
Soil-Vegetation Relationship in Quartzitic and Ferruginous Brazilian Rocky Outcrops

Thermoregulatory behaviour in Tropidurus torquatus (Squamata, Tropiduridae) from Brazilian coastal populations: an estimate of passive and active thermoregulation in lizards
(Blackwell PublishingOxfordInglaterra, 2007)
Estrutura de comunidades de cactos (Cactaceae) rupestres em campos subtropicais da América do Sul
(Universidade do Vale do Rio dos Sinos, 2010-02-25)
We investigated the relative importance of various natural and human-related environmental factors on the structure of 36 cacti communities occurring on rocky outcrops in southern Brazil grasslands. Outcrops were embedded ...
