Ecological mechanisms can modify radiation effects in a key forest mammal of Chernobyl
(Ecological Society of America, 2019)
Nuclear accidents underpin the need to quantify the ecological mechanisms which determine injury to ecosystems from chronic low‐dose radiation. Here, we tested the hypothesis that ecological mechanisms interact with ionizing ...
Ecological niche features override biological traits and taxonomic relatedness as predictors of occupancy and abundance in lake littoral macroinvertebrates
(Wiley-Blackwell Publishing, Inc., 2018)
The degree to which species ecological and biological traits determine their distribution and abundance has intrigued ecologists for a long time, and it has seen a revival in recent years. This topic is important because ...
Ecological plant epigenetics : Evidence from model and non-model species, and the way forward
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd; CNRS, 2017)
Growing evidence shows that epigenetic mechanisms contribute to complex traits, with implications
across many fields of biology. In plant ecology, recent studies have attempted to merge ecological
experiments with ...
Ecological response hides behind the species abundance distribution : Community response to low-intensity disturbance in managed grasslands
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2017)
Land-use and management are disturbance factors that have diverse effects on community composition and structure. In traditional rural grasslands, such as meadows and pastures, low-intensity management is maintained to ...
Ecology and extent of freshwater browning : what we know and what should be studied next in the context of global change
(Elsevier, 2022)
Water browning or brownification refers to increasing water color, often related to increasing dissolved organic matter (DOM) and carbon (DOC) content in freshwaters. Browning has been recognized as a significant physicochemical ...
Ecology explains anhydrobiotic performance across tardigrades, but the shared evolutionary history matters more
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2024)
1. Desiccation stress is lethal to most animals. However, some microinvertebrate groups have evolved coping strategies, such as the ability to undergo anhydrobiosis (i.e. survival despite the loss of almost all body water). ...
Economics of mixed-species forestry with ecosystem services
(Canadian Science Publishing, 2019)
The Faustmann-Hartman setup is widely established for specifying the economics of forest values besides timber, but it is criticized as restrictive for capturing diversity values. We show that extending the model to cover ...
Ecosystem carbon response of an Arctic peatland to simulated permafrost thaw
(Wiley-Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2019)
Permafrost peatlands are biogeochemical hot spots in the Arctic as they store vast amounts of carbon. Permafrost thaw could release part of these long‐term immobile carbon stocks as the greenhouse gases (GHGs) carbon dioxide ...
Ecosystem consequences of herbicides : the role of microbiome
(Elsevier, 2023)
Non-target organisms are globally exposed to herbicides. While many herbicides – for example, glyphosate – were initially considered safe, increasing evidence demonstrates that they have profound effects on ecosystem ...
Ecosystem health and planetary well-being
(Routledge, 2024)
Healthy ecosystems support the well-being of all organisms on Earth. Yet, the overexploitation of natural resources for human needs and profit has resulted in widespread ecosystem degradation, loss of biodiversity, and ...
