Canopy transpiration and stomatal responses to prolonged drought by a dominant desert species in central Asia
(MDPI AG, Basel, Switzerland, 2017)
In arid and semiarid lands, canopy transpiration and its dynamics depend largely on stomatal sensitivity to drought. In this study, the sap flow of a dominant species, Haloxylon ammodendron growing in Central Asian deserts, ...
A global synthesis of the effects of diversified farming systems on arthropod diversity within fields and across agricultural landscapes
(WILEY, 2017)
Agricultural intensification is a leading cause of global biodiversity loss, which can
reduce the provisioning of ecosystem services in managed ecosystems. Organic
farming and plant diversification are farm management ...
Analysing land cover and land use change in the Ruma National Park and surroundings in Kenya
(2017)
The change of land use and land cover (LULC) is often driven by the growth of human population. In the Lambwe valley, Kenya, the most important reason for accelerated settlement in the last decades was the control of the ...
Spatial heterogeneity in stand characteristics alters water use patterns of mountain forests
(2017)
Agricultural intensification is a leading cause of global biodiversity loss, which can
reduce the provisioning of ecosystem services in managed ecosystems. Organic
farming and plant diversification are farm management ...
Higher assimilation than respiration sensitivity to drought for a desert ecosystem in Central Asia
(Elsevier, 2017)
Responses of ecosystem assimilation and respiration to global climate change vary considerably among terrestrial ecosystems constrained by both biotic and abiotic factors. In this study, net CO2 exchange between ecosystem ...
