First, other drought indices could be more representative for some world regions or countries. Indicators considering only precipitation are suitable for subtropical areas (39), although those based on soil moisture could better represent the water budget component key for crop growth. However, the po...
increasing the risk of soil submergence and peat collapse12,13. This is crucial for low-lying island organogenic mangroves in the Maldives, where root production heavily influences elevation, and sea level rise is unlikely to decrease soil organic matter decay rates49. Comparisons...
Conclusions The high importance of soil and topographic variables indicates that the species have a relatively narrow niche driven by such factors, suggesting that conservation strategies should not be generalized for NNFEFs. In addition, dispersal barriers do not seem to have prevented floristic ...
Plants were watered freely and monitored with a soil probe to ensure that moisture was not limiting to plant growth. Average midday PAR at plant height was approximately 1350 mmol/m2/s. Greenhouse temperatures were ,25uC (day) and ,15uC (night), with daylength set at ...
Surface water and groundwater (also known as aquifers) are the two sources where water is found. Learn how the loss of surface and groundwater negatively affects the water supply and how irrigation leads to the soil being salinized. Related...
and the screening methods as PCR-based or not (Additional file4). We assessed the combined dataset (N= 520) for the effects of diet, habitat, climate and screening method (as factors) on the presence of parasites in the studied individuals using Generalized Linear Mixed-Effects Models with ...

For example, a mechanistic model that identifies plants that are able to use limited soil nutrients with increasing diversity in ecosystems generates a positive form of the SRPR45, whereas a modified multispecies patch-occupancy model reveals negative, positive, and humped forms of the PSRR along ...
