Food webs in river networksFood webs and river drainages are both hierarchical networks and complex adaptive systems. How does living within the second affect the first? Longitudinal gradients in productivity, disturbance regimes and habitat structure down rivers have long interested ecologists, but their effects on food web structure and dynamics are just beginning to be explored. Even less is known about how netwo... ... hiện toàn bộ

Pigment dynamics and autumn leaf senescence in a New England deciduous forest, eastern USAThe leaves of woody plants at Harvard Forest in Central Massachusetts, USA, changed color during senescence; 70% (62/89) of the woody species examined anatomically contained anthocyanins during senescence. Anthocyanins were not present in summer green leaves, and appeared primarily in the vacuoles of palisade parenchyma cells. Yellow coloration was a result of the unmasking of xanthophyll ... ... hiện toàn bộ

Review: Development of an in situ observation network for terrestrial ecological remote sensing: the Phenological Eyes Network (PEN)
Tập 30 - Trang 211-223 - 2015
The Phenological Eyes Network (PEN), which was established in 2003, is a network of long-term ground observation sites. The aim of the PEN is to validate terrestrial ecological remote sensing, with a particular focus on seasonal changes (phenology) in vegetation. There are three types of core sensors at PEN sites: an Automatic Digital Fish-eye Camera, a HemiSpherical SpectroRadiometer, and a Sun P...... hiện toàn bộ
Forest structure and tree species distribution in relation to topography‐mediated heterogeneity of soil nitrogen and light at the forest floorWe investigated the patterns of soil nitrogen (N) and forest floor light availability, forest structure and tree species distribution along a topographic gradient on a 200‐m mountain slope in a cool‐temperate deciduous broad‐leaved forest in Japan. Rates of soil N mineralization and nitrification decreased from lower to upper slope positions, revealing that N availability decreased up the ... ... hiện toàn bộ

Root respiration rate before and just after clear‐felling in a mature, deciduous, broad‐leaved forestAbstract Soil respiration was measured throughout the year (June 1992 to May 1993) in a mature, deciduous, broad‐leaved forest and an adjacent, clear‐felled stand which was made in November 1991, in Hiroshima Prefecture, west Japan. The same soil temperature and soil moisture content as those in the forest stand were maintained in two frame boxes covered with sheets... ... hiện toàn bộ

The role of seed dispersal and seedling traits in colonization and coexistence of Salix species in a seasonally flooded habitatAbstract Regeneration traits of six co‐occurring Salix species were studied on a floodplain of the Sorachi River, central Hokkaido, Japan, and their colonization success and coexistence in a local habitat were discussed. Mixed Salix communities contained six Salix species; dominant:... hiện toàn bộ

Effects of body size, age and maturity stage on diet in a large shark: ecological and applied implicationsAbstract Ontogenetic diet shifts are a widespread phenomenon among vertebrates, although their relationships with life history traits are poorly known. We analyzed the relative importance of body size, age and maturity stage as determinants of the diet of a marine top predator, the copper shark, Carcharhinus brachyurus , by examining stomac... ... hiện toàn bộ

Five‐year study on the autumn food habits of the Asiatic black bear in relation to nut productionWe studied the autumn food habits of the Asiatic black bear (Ursus thibetanus ) from 1993 to 1997, based on 202 fecal samples in the Chichibu Mountains, central Japan. Nuts occupied the highest proportions of autumn foods (59.9–85.8% important values). Although the proportion of nuts of Quercus crispula , Fagus crenata... hiện toàn bộ

Effects of water level on sleeping‐site selection and inter‐group association in proboscis monkeys: why do they sleep alone inland on flooded days?Abstract A one‐male group (BE‐Group) of proboscis monkeys was studied along the Menanggul River, a tributary of the Kinabatangan River, Sabah, Malaysia, from May 2005 to 2006. It has generally been assumed that proboscis monkeys only set up their sleeping sites along the riverbank; however, when more than 1 m of water covered the forest floor for more than 700 m inl... ... hiện toàn bộ

Relative influence of habitat heterogeneity, climate, human disturbance, and spatial structure on vertebrate species richness in Spain
Tập 24 - Trang 335-344 - 2008
Many factors affect the distribution of species richness. This study examines the relative influence of habitat heterogeneity, climate, human disturbance, and spatial structure on the species-richness distribution of terrestrial vertebrates (amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals) in mainland Spain. The results indicate that spatial structure and environment exert similar influences on species ri...... hiện toàn bộ
