Nutrient availability controls the impact of mammalian herbivores on soil carbon and nitrogen pools in grasslands
(Wiley, 2020-02)Grasslands are subject to considerable alteration due to human activities globally, including widespread changes in populations and composition of large mammalian herbivores and elevated supply of nutrients. Grassland soils ... -
Recent deforestation drove the spike in Amazonian fires
(IOP Publishing, 2020-12-11)Tropical forests are of global importance even though they only cover around 10% of the Earth's land surface. They store large amounts of carbon and host between one-half and two-thirds of the world's species (Lewis 2006). ... -
REDD+ en Latinoamérica: el caso de Perú
(Facultad de Ciencias Forestales y Recursos Naturales, Universidad Austral de Chile, 2013)La cuestión de cómo los países en vías de desarrollo como el Perú pueden participar efectivamente en el marco REDD+ (reducción de emisiones de la deforestación y degradación de bosques) de las Naciones Unidas ha sido el ... -
Sensitivity of global soil carbon stocks to combined nutrient enrichment
(Wiley, 2019-06)Soil stores approximately twice as much carbon as the atmosphere and fluctuations in the size of the soil carbon pool directly influence climate conditions. We used the Nutrient Network global change experiment to examine ... -
Soil carbon is a useful surrogate for conservation planning in developing nations
(Nature Research, 2019-03)Defining the optimal placement of areas for biodiversity conservation in developing nations remains a significant challenge. Our best methods for spatially targeting potential locations for biodiversity conservation rely ... -
Structure and function of soil microbial communities in fertile islands in austral drylands
(Wiley, 2022-04-15)Fertile islands are an important determinant of ecosystem functioning in drylands. These resourcerich patches are maintained by complex interactions among biotic and abiotic factors. Soil microorganisms are responsible for ... -
Vegetation type mapping in Southern Patagonia and its relationship with ecosystem services, soil carbon stock, and biodiversity
(MDPI, 2024-02-29)Vegetation Type (VT) mapping using Optical Earth observation data is essential for the management and conservation of natural resources, as well as for the evaluation of the supply of provisioning ecosystem services (ESs), ...
