Genetic monitoring of populations currently attracts interest in the context of the Convention on Biological Diversity but needs long-term planning and investments. However, genetic diversity has been largely neglected in biodiversity monitoring, and whe
N is the total number of reaches; we multiply by (N−Pj) because sites must be unoccupied to be colonized. Finally, c is the colonization rate, which is a function of the DOM concentration, thereby linking it to the physical equation. The second term describes extinctions and follows ...
The term “soil quality” was coined in this context, but more recently the term “soil health” has become common (Chapters 14 and 251425). Soil quality is the ability of a soil to function within its surroundings, support plant and animal productivity, and maintain or enhance water and ...
The term was introduced to the world by the book Cybernetics or Control and Communication in the Animal and the Machine, published in 1948. We owe the basic concept, and the word itself, to the inventive mind of the late Norbert Wiener. We give credit for this basic concept and the word...
The global human footprint has fundamentally altered wildfire regimes, creating serious consequences for human health, biodiversity, and climate. However, it remains difficult to project how long-term interactions among land use, management, and climate
With "climax," "biome," "superorganism," and various other technical terms for the association of animals and plants at a given locality being criticized, the term "ecosystem" was more and more widely adopted for the whole system of associated organisms together with the physical factors of the...

The slope of the relationship between predicted wildfire probability and annual biomass varied the most between the five cross-validation models, suggesting it was the term in the model with the greatest uncertainty. For example, when we withheld the northeast most portion of the study area from ...
(1 −N1/K1)—though the term α1,2N2/K2will exert a decreasing influence over the growth rate of species 1 as α1,2N2/K2diminishes. Consequently, the first equation represents the amount by which the growth rate of species 1 over a specific time period will be reduced by its ...
The focus was on the co-existence and interaction of languages, communities and cultures within a society, and the relatively infrequent use of the term since Haugen’s article appeared has primarily been in relation to the study of societal multilingualism. With a few exceptions, however (e.g...
