Carbon and nitrogen dynamics in a soil profile: Model development

David Andrew Barry, Alessandro Brovelli, Jordi Batlle-Aguilar

In order to meet demands for crops, pasture and firewood, the rate of land use change from forested to agricultural uses has steadily increased over several decades, resulting in an increased release of nutrients towards groundwater and surface water bodie ...

Stratégies villageoises pour la gestion des paysages forestiers du Menabe Central, Madagascar

Clémence Dirac Ramohavelo

Introduction In order to reduce deforestation, the current attitude of conservation programmes and forest politics does no longer ban the local populations from the forests, because such measures present negative consequences for the communities. Today's t ...

Carbon, oxygen and nitrogen dynamics in a soil profile: Model development and application

David Andrew Barry, Alessandro Brovelli, Jordi Batlle-Aguilar

In order to meet demands for crops, pasture and firewood, the rate of land use change from forested to agricultural uses steadily increased over several decades, resulting in an increased release of nutrients towards groundwater and surface water bodies. I ...

Identifying Conservation and Restoration Priorities for Saproxylic and Old-Growth Forest Species: A Case Study in Switzerland

Saproxylic (dead-wood-associated) and old-growth species are among the most threatened species in European forest ecosystems, as they are susceptible to intensive forest management. Identifying areas with particular relevant features of biodiversity is of ...

Nurse plants, tree saplings and grazing pressure: decreasing facilitation along a biotic environmental gradient

Charlotte Vandenberghe

Current conceptual models predict that an increase in stress shifts interactions between plants from competitive to facilitative; hence, facilitation is expected to gain in ecological importance with increasing stress. Little is known about how facilitativ ...

Wood-pastures are semi-natural, highly biodiverse systems maintained by traditional extensive agriculture. They are used for grazing and timber. The shifting mosaics of grassland, shrub thickets and woodland patches in these systems are driven by large her ...

Spatial and seasonal patterns of cattle habitat use in a mountain wooded pasture

Alexandre Buttler, François Gillet, Jean-Michel Gobat

Management-oriented models of cattle habitat use often treat grazing pressure as a single variable summarizing all cattle activities. This paper addresses the following questions: How does the spatial pattern of cattle effects vary between cattle activitie ...

Process-based, spatially-explicit modelling of riparian forest dynamics in Central Europe

Christian Glenz

During the last decades public awareness of the limitations of traditional engineering practices and the imperative to conserve nature have led to changes in river management; including river restoration measures. The enlargement of the fluvial corridor is ...
