Hunting and land use change modify native herbivore abundances and cause cascading effects in natural ecosystems. The outcomes for vegetation depend o...

Tropical forest loss can drive the extinction of forest-dependent species. Yet, non-forest species can proliferate in deforested landscapes, thus enab...

Commonness and rarity among British butterflies were examined by relating features of biology and ecology to geographical distribution. No single attr...

The possible use of tropical insects as indicators for monitoring forest disturbance and regeneration is discussed with reference to whether species-a...

In temperate communities, species abundance distributions have been used to detect ecosystem disturbance: in undisturbed habitats, distributions are c...

Earthworms were sampled by hand-sorting at 14 localities in and near the Beheira Province. Soil was analysed for water content, texture, pH, total sol...

The long-term effects of grass reseeding on the colonization of bulldozed ground by native species were investigated. Colonization of three bulldozed ...

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

Illegal private land deforestation threatens global biodiversity, even in areas with native habitat requirements stipulated by law. Compliance can be ...

Termites are major decomposers in tropical regions and play an important role in soil processes. This study measured the impact of land-use intensific...
