Abstract:

During oil-sands mining all vegetation cover, soil, overburden and oil-sand is removed, leaving pits several kilometres wide and hundreds of metres deep. These pits are reclaimed by a variety of treatments using mineral soil or a mixed peat and mineral soil as the capping layer and planted with trees with natural colonisation from adjacent sites. A number of reclamation treatments covering different age classes were compared with a range of natural forest ecotypes to identify the age at which the treatments become similar to a natural site with respect to vegetation composition and key soil a

Abstract:

Tropical forests restoration is an important tool for climate change mitigation and biodiversity conservation. We can ally both of these elements, according to the biodiversity and ecosystem (BEF) functioning theory, which says that diversity enhances ecosystem functions, as primary productivity. Nevertheless, the greatest part of BEF studies up to very recently have focused on grasslands and not on as complex ecosystems as tropical forests. It is necessary to better understand above- and below-ground processes through which biodiversity acts on ecosystem functions. This work aimed to investig

The Effects of Tropical Forest Management on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Functioning Eleanor M. Slade 1. Between 35 % and 50 % of all closed-canopy tropical forest has been lost, and the rate of deforestation continues to increase throughout the tropics. Despite a wealth of literature on the effects of tropical forest disturbance on the diversity and composition of a variety of taxa, there is still no clear consensus on the value of disturbed forests for biodiversity. 2. If forest management practises are to be sustainable in the long-term they should maintain both biodiversity and ecosystem fu

Abstract:

Biological communities are changing across the globe as a result of anthropogenic pressures; abundances of individuals are declining within populations and species are becoming extinct. Biological diversity and trophic complexity in grasslands and soil food webs are positively associated with the cycling of nutrients in soil and water, primary productivity and decomposition. Since these ecosystem processes underpin a number of goods and services to society, human-driven changes in the structure of ecosystems could negatively impact upon human wellbeing. However, the majority of our knowledge o

Abstract:

Communities are influenced by many factors, with anthropogenic impacts being one of the strongest. These factors can influence community structure and may cause non-random species loss by filtering certain traits of species, which may also determine how a species contributes to ecosystem functioning. The structure of a community can also be highly variable over short timescales and across seasons, as abiotic factors can alter a resource over the course of days and also alter intensity of competition within a community. These short-timescale influences are most noticeable in an ephemeral resour

This study attempts to expand existing knowledge on the relationship between biodiversity and ecosystem functioning, by studying a four year old tropical tree plantation. The growth of trees coming from monocultures, three species mixtures and six species mixtures was compared. Through multivariate statistical analysis, the variation in tree productivity was partitioned into different components: variation explained by (1) species richness, (2) species identity and (3) the environment. Results reveal that the environment explains the largest portion of variability in tree growth. Moreover, of

Abstract The effect of biodiversity loss and change on the functioning of ecosystems is one of the key questions in ecological research. For stream ecosystems, compelling evidence indicates that species diversity may enhance ecosystem functions. However, ecosystem functions are often regulated by the same environmental factors that also shape diversity; thus, a major challenge for ecologists is to separate the effects of biodiversity loss on the ecosystem functions from the direct effects of human induced disturbance.

Age-related changes in sapwood area were the main drivers of BAI in mountain P. uncinata forests. Thus, any potential climate-induced effect on BAI will be mainly driven by sapwood production, whic

Food webs depict not only the composition of the community, but also the feeding links, which represent a measure of energy flow. Therefore, they can inform about the relationships among

Mangrove forests are considered one of the most efficient natural carbon sinks and their preservation is thus important in climate change mitigation. However, they are declining at higher rates than terrestrial forests, due to human activities; with Kenyan mangroves being no of exception. One of the main drivers of mangrove decline in Kenya is over-exploitation for wood products. The present study aimed to assess (a) the effects of tree removal on the fluxes of greenhouse gases, surface elevation and other ecosystem functions of mangrove forests and (b) mangrove root production.
