自然资本(natural capital)目前被广泛定义为非生物性的(abiotic)和生物性(biotic)的自然资源,作为一种存量(stock),通过生态系统服务流向人类社会[1]。 英语新闻导读 To persuade businesses and investors to shift capital toward low-carbon, socially inclusive, and nature-positive activities, governments must integ...
Abiotic–biotic linkageCliff foot depositHuman influenceBiogeologyMediterranean SeaThe existence of linkages between ecological and geomorphological processes and the influence of human activities both on the biota and on geomorphology is well known for terrestrial environments, while it has been seldom ...
Here we investigate the effect of developmental changes on as-1 -dependent transcription activities under basal and stimulus-induction conditions. We show that different xenobiotic stress cues give rise to distinct, differential patterns of as-1 activity in planta, which are further effected by ...
In ecology, abiotic and biotic factors work together to make up an ecosystem. Abiotic factors are the nonliving parts of an environment; these include things such as sunlight, temperature, wind, water, soil and naturally occurring events such as storms, fires and volcanic eruptions. Biotic factors...
functionality. Such systems are characterized by bothbiotic or living (animals and plants)andabiotic or non-living aspectsthat cooperate to form anecosystem. Abiotic Components: Non-living components that regulate the environment and its organisms form crucial parts of marine ecosystems known as abiotic...
The complexity and dynamics of human diseases are driven by the interactions between internal molecular activities and external environmental exposures. Although advances in omics technology have dramatically broadened the understanding of internal molec
Today, both natural and human-induced disturbances have long-term influence on the structure and composition of eastside vegetation. Disturbance may enhance landscape diversity, therefore, the scale of modifying events and activities needs to shift from species and stand to the landscape level. ...
It could even be said that they exploited all the resources at their disposal, both biotic (plants, fungi and fauna) and abiotic (e.g. lithic), for a large number of activities: subsistence, technological and symbolic. The knowledge they had about the climatic conditions, the topography and...
Plants are constantly exposed to a wide range of stress situations, such as biotic stressors caused by pathogenic microbes and herbivores, as well as abiotic stress factors like drought, salinity, and severe temperature. Plants have developed an intricate and sophisticated network of molecular signalin...
and genetic changes. This chapter represents a general overview of the major mechanisms developed by plants to tolerate environmental stresses, both abiotic (drought, high temperature, chilling and freezing, UV-B radiation, salinity and heavy metals) and biotic (herbivory, pathogen and parasite and ...
