1 Significant areas of temperate bogs have been damaged by peat harvesting but may regenerate. These secondary mires, if well managed, may act as strong C sinks, regulate hydrology and buffer regional climate. 2 The potential effects of bog regeneration wi ...
The biogenic silica extracted from samples of 28 alpine plant species belonging to 23 genera and nine families collected in the Swiss Alps (Valais) accounted for between 0.01 and 5.9% of the dry biomass of leaves and wood. Silica content, and plant contrib ...
To study the relationships between groups of organisms and the degree to which these relationships are consistent across major climatic gradients, we analysed the testate amoeba (Protozoa) communities, vegetation and water chemistry of one peatland in five ...
Question: What are the correlations between the degree of drought stress and temperature, and the adoption of specific adaptive strategies by plants in the Mediterranean region? Location: 602 sites across the Mediterranean region. Method: We considered 12 ...
1, The growth of Sphagnum fallax was studied in a glasshouse experiment. Capitulum diaspores of S. fallax were cultivated on five different types of bare peat core, representing a gradient of increasing disturbance. Increases in length and weight were meas ...
Vegetation responses to environmental gradients in peatlands are well documented but little is known about how these patterns compare with those of soil organisms. We studied the vegetation, testate amoebae, and abiotic variables (depth of the water table ...
The distribution of VIP binding sites in rat kidney and adrenal gland has been examined by light microscopic autoradiography. A fully characterized mono-iodinated molecular form of VIP (M-125-I-VIP) which maintains the biological activity of the native pep ...
