The focus of this review is on the dynamics of woodland soil carbon and its exchange with the atmosphere as CO2. Activities that can influence soil ca...

Spot-lists, totalling 870 plant species, were compiled for a set of 38 rain forest sites in eastern Australia, and for a corresponding set of near-by ...

Community analyses of termite faunas of primary rain forests in Peninsular Malaysia revealed that forest and soil variables were the only discernible ...

Changes in soil carbon (C) sequestration in grassland ecosystems have important impacts on the global C cycle. As such, it is important that researche...

The contents of organic C and fibrous roots were characteristically high in soils under Rhizophora racemosa (5-10% and 11-26% respectively). They were...

Reliance on ecosystem services instead of synthetic, non-renewable inputs is increasingly seen as key to achieving food security in an environmentally...

Many plants rely on soil seedbanks to persist in fire-prone ecosystems. However, knowledge of plant responses to fire is largely based on above-ground...

In a study on a peat moor in Somerset (SW England, 51°12′N, 2°49′W) in 1991, assessments were made of the soil seed bank in March, and of the abovegro...

Land degradation is a major threat to food security in Sub Saharan Africa. Low infiltration rates in degraded soils increase the risk of surface runof...

Degradation of dryland ecosystems is a worldwide problem caused by climate change and human activities. To restore these degraded ecosystems, governme...
