Abstract:
Abandoned semi-natural limestone grasslands are often overgrown by shrubs and trees. Little is know if and to what extant xerothermic limestone grasslands can be restored by tree cutting. This was tested in a 12-year experiment after the clearing of a 35-year-old secondary pine wood developed on unmanaged grassland in the close proximity of not overgrown old grassland. After 12 years, there were no significant differences in the number of field layer species on the plots in the old and restored grasslands. But over this period the number of meadow species increased in all sites, while the numb

Abstract:
Observed for the first time in south-eastern Romania by Ramme in 1951 and described as a new subspecies from Cogealac (Constanţa County), Asiotmethis limbatus motasi (Ramme, 1951) is endemic for the Romanian territory, being known only from central and southern Dobrogea. The species was discovered in the field by its calling song and body color, two major elements in identifying this very mobile insect. There are three major NATURA 2000 types of habitat where these taxa have been identified: Subpannonic steppe grasslands described as xerophilous feathergrass steppe grasslands, dry grasslands d

Ecosystems limited in phosphorous (P) are widespread, yet there is limited understanding of how these ecosystems may respond to anthropogenic deposition of nitrogen (N) and the interconnected effects on the biogeochemical cycling of carbon (C), N, and P.

We do this by combining data with an integrated C–N–P cycling model (N14CP). We exp

Abstract Elevated CO2 (eCO2) can stimulate plant productivity and increase carbon (C) input to soils, but nutrient limitation restricts productivity. Despite phosphorus (P)-limited ecosystems increasing globally, it is unknown how nutrient cycling, particularly soil microbial extra cellular enzyme activity (EEA), will respond to eCO2 in such ecosystems. Long-term nutrient manipulation plots from adjacent P-limited acidic and limestone grasslands were exposed to eCO2 (600 ppm) provided by a mini-Free Air CO2 Enrichment system.

First, the abundance of individual constituent species can depend upon the combined influence of direct genetic effects stemming from individuals within the population.

Between 1981–1991, 4% of the Burren area (1371ha) was reclaimed under the Programme for Western Development. Most of the reclamation was intensive and the land is being used to produce silage.

The great increase in fertiliser and silage usage may pose a threat to groundwater quality in the area.
