Tree diversity reduces variability in sapling survival under drought

Charlotte Grossiord, Jingjing Liang, Xiaojuan Liu

Enhancing tree diversity may be important to fostering resilience to drought-related climate extremes. So far, little attention has been given to whether tree diversity can increase the survival of trees and reduce its variability in young forest plantatio ...

Ecosystem engineering by periphyton in Alpine proglacial streams

Tom Ian Battin, Davide Mancini, Marc Aguet, Adrijan Selitaj, Matteo Roncoroni

Stream periphytons are candidate ecosystem engineers in proglacial margins. Here, we quantify the extent to which they are engineers for the case of hillslope-fed tributaries in the terrace zones of proglacial margin alluvial plains. Candidate ecosystem en ...

Semi-Supervised Deep Learning Representations in Earth Observation Based Forest Management

Devis Tuia, Marc Conrad Russwurm, Lloyd Haydn Hughes, Oleg Antropov, Sudipan Saha

In this study, we examine the potential of several self-supervised deep learning models in predicting forest attributes and detecting forest changes using ESA Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 images. The performance of the proposed deep learning models is compare ...

Changing nutrient cycling in Lake Baikal, the world's oldest lake

Sebastiano Piccolroaz

Lake Baikal, lying in a rift zone in southeastern Siberia, is the world's oldest, deepest, and most voluminous lake that began to form over 30 million years ago. Cited as the "most outstanding example of a freshwater ecosystem" and designated a World Herit ...

Optimised biomolecular extraction for metagenomic analysis of microbial biofilms from high-mountain streams

Tom Ian Battin, Hannes Markus Peter, Susheel Bhanu Busi, Jade Brandani, Stylianos Fodelianakis, Paraskevi Pramateftaki

Glacier-fed streams (GFS) are harsh ecosystems dominated by microbial life organized in benthic biofilms, yet the biodiversity and ecosystem functions provided by these communities remain under-appreciated. To better understand the microbial processes and ...

Environmental heterogeneity promotes spatial resilience of phototrophic biofilms in streambeds

Andrea Rinaldo, Tom Ian Battin, Hannes Markus Peter, Enrico Bertuzzo, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Carmelo Juez Jiménez

The loss of environmental heterogeneity threatens biodiversity and ecosystem functioning. It is therefore important to understand the relationship between environmental heterogeneity and spatial resilience as the capacity of ecological communities embedded ...

Disturbance-grazer-vegetation interactions maintain habitat diversity in mountain pasture-woodlands

Alexandre Buttler, François Gillet, Alexander Ludwig Johannes Peringer

Low-intensity livestock grazing is a widespread management tool in order to maintain habitat diversity in mountain pasture-woodlands for nature conservation purposes. Historical photographs indicate that forest disturbance significantly contributed to fore ...

A novel testate amoebae trait-based approach to infer environmental disturbance in Sphagnum peatlands

Vincent Eric Jules Jassey, Mariusz Lamentowicz

Species' functional traits are closely related to ecosystem processes through evolutionary adaptation, and are thus directly connected to environmental changes. Species' traits are not commonly used in palaeoecology, even though they offer powerful advanta ...

Mitochondrial DNA Analyses Indicate High Diversity, Expansive Population Growth and High Genetic Connectivity of Vent Copepods (Dirivultidae) across Different Oceans

Stefan Jean Laurent

Communities in spatially fragmented deep-sea hydrothermal vents rich in polymetallic sulfides could soon face major disturbance events due to deep-sea mineral mining, such that unraveling patterns of gene flow between hydrothermal vent populations will be ...
