This conversion of wildlands to farms, olive orchards and residential areas has a considerable impact on the landscape. Severe effects are also caused by free and uncontrolled grazing by livestock coupled with frequent pastoral wildfires. Agricultural lands, on the contrary, are privately owned but ...
"Forest elephants are among the most threatened animals, but their biology and behavior remain poorly understood," said Ting, who is also a member of the UO's Institute of Ecology and Evolution. "More information is key to figuring out the best ways to protect them and prevent extinction." ...
Over the last decades, evidence has accumulated that there are persistent imprints on understory vegetation diversity[53] by anthropogenic disturbances, e.g., thinning[10], invasive species[54], and wildfires[55], as well as climate change, e.g., drought[56], warming[57], and acidifying ...
For a certain population subset, socioeconomic status in the United States is harder to change now than at any point in recent history, according to research from the University of Pennsylvania, Princeton University, and elsewhere.
Furthermore, climate change has caused the occur- rence of extreme weather events including flooding, droughts, heatwaves, wildfires, erratic storms, and the rise in sea levels [5–8]. This has caused much concern among people who fear that climate change will worsen in the future. Aside ...

wildfiresDespite occupying a small fraction of the landscape, fluvial networks are disproportionately large emitters of CO2 and CH4, with the potential to offset terrestrial carbon sinks. Yet the extent of this offset remains uncertain, because current estimates of fluvial emissions often do not ...
