This study is the first to compare dung beetle assemblages at both regional and local scales. The findings highlight the importance of preserving tree canopy in land use planning to mitigate microclimatic changes, especially in humid forests, to support dung beetle populations and their crucial ...
Wetlands are disappearing faster than any other ecosystem. Germany has one of the worlds highest rates of wetland losses. From a legal perspective, the significant extent of these degradations since 1976 is symptomatic of the inadequate incorporation of the Ramsar Convention into the German legal ...
(amount of forested buffers, wetlands, etc.) Overall it was concluded that the health of the water was good to excellent. What was found was that many of the macroinvertebrates found in the water were sensitive or facultative, meaning the water quality was good enough for them to live in....
A metacommunity is a set of local communities linked by the dispersal of multiple interacting plant species within a landscape or region, and these local communities often occur in different habitats, such as valleys, hills, river beaches, wetlands, and deltas. Habitat heterogeneity (i.e., ...

A loss of biodiversity due to an invasive What happens to the net primary productivity and to the species diversity when humans disrupt wetlands by adding more nutrients, as in the example of agriculture in the Everglades? ...
Drinking, irrigation, industry, and transportation are among the many important uses of water provided by rivers for humans. Answer and Explanation: The three most important priorities for dealing with the water resource problems of...
4). When active during the incubation period, foxes avoided gravel beds and wet meadows (both low-quality lemming habitats), showed no response to xeric habitats (another low-quality lemming habitat; P2b partially supported) and avoided complex wetlands (P2c supported). Across study periods, ...
Indeed, interactions between salinity and hydroperiod have been implicated in the regulation of survival, growth, physiological proficiency, and zonation of individual seedlings, saplings, and trees that colonize mangrove wetlands [10, 11]. Through repetitive experimentation, we are progressively gaining ...
Ebullition is an important pathway for transport of methane (CH) to the atmosphere in wetlands. Water level changes have been suggested to trigger ebullition, especially in tidally flooded areas, although the controlling mechanisms remain uncertain. Bubble transport in submerged sediment represents a ...
