Abstract:
The impact of land use change from grassland to conifer forest on the aluminium (Al) concentrations in soils and soil solutions was examined. Soils from grassland were compared with those from adjoining 15–19-year old forest stands at 3 contrasting pairs of sites in South Island, New Zealand. The site pairs were on a terrace [Pinus nigra/P. ponderosa, and grassland (CP)], and a hill slope [Pseudotsuga menziesii and grassland (CF)] in the Craigieburn range, Canterbury, and a hill slope in the Lammerlaw Range, Otago [P. radiata and grassland (LP)]. The sites had never been cultivated or fertilis

Abstract:
The European temperate forest zone has great importance, in terms of maintaining the habitats of not only forests but also anthropogenous grasslands, which were formed as a result of habitat reconstruction. These habitats have great importance, by means of nature conservation, landscape use, economy, and forest and grassland use. The mosaic-like habitat complexes that consist of these grasslands and forest patches help to increase biodiversity and supply the habitat for forest game. In this survey, changes in the vegetation of the temperate forests (Fagetum) of the Mátra Mountains of Hungary w

Abstract:
Selected surface horizons of grassland and forest soils formed under a cold, semi-arid climate were investigated to evaluate the formation of secondary minerals within the White River tephra, a Late Holocene rhyolitic tephra (~115014C yr BP) veneer that overlies the soil landscapes of central Yukon. Concentrations of extractable Fe (< 0.48%), Al (< 0.26%) and Si (< 0.082%) concentrations in surface tephra-contaning horizons of grassland and forest pedons are low. The high amount of exchangeable calcium in grassland soils is likely due to cycling by vegetation and perhaps, aeolian inpu

Campo de Altitude, one of the ecosystems associated with the Atlantic Forest, occurs mainly in high plateaus of Southeastern Brazil. The study area is in Serra do Brigadeiro State Park, Southeastern Brazil. We sampled six habitats (swamp field, <em>Vellozia</em> field, high mountain field, scrub slope, high altitude scrub, and cloud forest) that represent three physiognomies (grassland, scrub, and woodland). Overall, 180 species were recorded, belonging to 128 genera and 58 families. The richest families were Orchidaceae (20 species), Asteraceae (19), Melastomataceae (18), Rubiaceae (11), Myrt

AbstractThe results of an analysis of land use development in the Morava River floodplain (Czech Republic) using GIS from 1836 to the present, are the subject of this article. The results are based on the analysis of historical maps, using the landscape matrix assessment of the Morava River floodplain. The final analyses were processed from land use maps of the floodplain at a scale of 1 : 25,000 in five time horizons. These maps were compared with the present state of landscape by GIS methods.

Abstract:
Water provision (WP) is an important service of the terrestrial ecosystem, which contributes to water availability for consumptive use and in situ water supply, sustains the production or flows of multiple ecosystem services (ES). Spatially explicit mapping of WP is critical for incorporating the ES concept into the decision-making processes of land-use and ecological conservation planning. Traditionally, regional complexes hydrological process models were simplified and used for mapping WP of the ecosystem at broad scales, but this approach is significantly limited by data accessibility and d

Abstract:
Iron in soil exists in various valence states and is prone to changes with alterations in soil environmental conditions. Its migration and transformation are crucial for soil formation and understanding soil evolution. This study focuses on Quaternary red soils found in woodland, sparse forest grassland, grassland, and cultivated land located in the semi-humid region of the middle temperate zone. For comparison, buried Quaternary red soil was also examined. A soil reconstruction model was used to quantitatively calculate the variation of different forms of iron in order to analyze various form

Studies of diurnal birds of prey may be quite indicative of the state of natural ecosystems and of the level of impact of human-induced factors on their functions. The aim of this work was to analyse the long-term dynamics of the raptor populations within the Donetsk Ridge, to identify which habitat or habitat mosaics are preferred in nesting territories and home ranges depending on the level of anthropogenic transformation of the environment. The studies were conducted in 1999–2019. The total length of the walking routes was 2,864 km while a distance of 1,548 km was covered by car routes. 306

Abstract. Conceptual models suggest that stability of organic carbon (OC) in soil depends on the source of plant litter, occlusion within aggregates, incorporation in organo-mineral complexes, and location within the soil profile. Density fractionation is a useful tool to study the relevance of OC stabilization in aggregates and in association with minerals, but it has rarely been applied to full soil profiles. We aim to determine factors shaping the depth profiles of physically unprotected and mineral associated OC and test their relevance for OC stability across a range of European soils tha

Abstract:
Overall, taking behavioural ecological and trait-based approaches, my study suggests that the distribution of a species and patterns in its population densities in a landscape are affected by diverse ecological variables, including local factors, such as heterogeneity in multiple resources required by a species, and landscape factors, such as habitat area and connectivity. Using a behavioural ecological approach, I find that butterflies responded to resource heterogeneity at multiple spatial scales and appeared to balance acquiring multiple resources when making foraging and space-use decision

Predicting forest fire occurrences can bolster early detection capabilities and improve early warning systems and responses. Currently, forest and grassland fire prevention and suppression efforts in China face significant hurdles due to the complex interplay of natural and societal factors. While existing models for predicting forest fire occurrences typically consider factors like vegetation, topography, weather conditions, and human activities, the moisture content of forest fuels is a critical aspect closely linked to fire occurrences.

Abstract The contemporary flora of Konza Prairie reflects the spatial and temporal dynamics of its vegetation as affected by a host of complex and interacting factors, including geology, climate, fire, grazing, and human activities (Chapter 6, this volume). Located near the western edge of the tallgrass prairie ecosystem, Konza Prairie is dominated by grassland vegetation characterized by a few native, dominant, perennial, warm-season grasses and an assortment of other species with decreasing abundance and influence in the prairie. The flora is decidedly calciphilous and has a preponderance of

Abstract:
The timescale structure of this book has served well to keep the attention of investigators focused on specific aspects of climate variability and ecosystem response. Indeed, judging by the responses received by the editors of this volume, when given a choice between focusing on one timescale or several timescales, the LTER community was far more comfortable dealing with just one scale. There are obvious reasons for this, not the least of which is that focusing on a single scale greatly simplifies things. The real world, however, does not focus on one timescale.
