Overgrazing has resulted in widespread decline in biodiversity and ecosystem functioning in grasslands world-wide in recent decades. However, few stud...

Overgrazing is one of the main drivers of desertification in drylands, and livestock production is expected to increase in the next decades. The analy...

Adaptive management approaches to ecological restoration are current best practice. The usefulness of such an approach was tested in this study by imp...

Habitat loss and degradation of wetland ecosystems, principally through large-scale drainage and conversion to arable farmland, have been implicated i...

Limited information exists on approaches to effectively revegetate severely disturbed, barren, subgrade (unconsolidated parent material) serpentine su...

Roads cause functional habitat loss, alter movement patterns and can become ecological traps for wildlife. Many of the negative effects of roads are l...

Reliable estimates of dispersal rates between habitat patches (i.e. functional connectivity) are critical for predicting long-term effects of habitat ...

Despite ongoing concerns and controversy over a putative 'global pollination crisis' there is little information on the response of bees, the most imp...

Extensive clearing of native vegetation in Australia has contributed to major environmental problems, including land degradation, dryland salinity, so...

Agricultural intensification has caused a decline in structural elements in European farmland, where natural habitats are increasingly fragmented. The...
