Climate models predict increasing drought intensity and frequency for many regions, which may have negative consequences for tree recruitment, growth ...

Agricultural landscapes are characterised by dynamic crop mosaics changing in composition and configuration over space and time. Although semi-natural...

Temporal changes in semi-arid ecosystems can include transitions between alternative stable states, involving thresholds and multiple domains of attra...

Human alteration of the global environment is leading to a pervasive loss of biodiversity. Most studies evaluating human impacts on biodiversity occur...

New forest management approaches aim to ensure high biodiversity and climatic adaptability. Silvicultural practices can alter tree-tree interactions a...

Semi-natural grasslands are among the richest European ecosystems in terms of biodiversity. However, they have been severely affected by farming inten...

Streams and riparian zones are highly heterogeneous ecosystems. Their high biodiversity is promoted by variable flow velocities and water depths, stro...

Agroforestry systems provide opportunities to reduce the trade-off between agricultural production and biodiversity, for example by enhancing a divers...

Stream food webs are connected with their riparian zones through cross-ecosystem movements of energy and nutrients. The use and impact of terrestrial ...

Semi-natural habitats have been shaped by human disturbance regimes for centuries. Spatially and temporally heterogeneous land use practices, such as ...
