Decomposition and nutrient release of grass and tree fine roots along an environmental gradient in southern Patagonia
(Wiley, 2018-10-25)Decomposition of fine roots is a fundamental ecosystem process that relates to carbon (C) and nutrient cycling in terrestrial ecosystems. However, this important ecosystem process has been hardly studied in Patagonian ... -
Delineación y codificación de cuencas hidrográficas en la Patagonia Austral
(Universidad Nacional del Comahue, 2021-11-11)La definición de la cuenca hidrográfica es fundamental para enfrentar los desafíos de la gestión integrada de los recursos hídricos, considerando las demandas sociales, productivas y ambientales. Su apropiada delimitación ... -
Desarrollo de la regeneración a lo largo del ciclo del manejo forestal de un bosque de Nothofagus pumilio: 1. Incidencia de la cobertura y el aprovechamiento o cosecha
(Facultad de Ciencias Forestales y Recursos Naturales, Universidad Austral de Chile, 1999)La Lenga es la especie forestal de mayor impacto económico en la Patagonia. Dentro del bosque es posible encontrar una población importante de renovales, cuya supervivencia depende de la cantidad de luz que el dosel arbóreo ... -
Desarrollo de la regeneración a lo largo del ciclo del manejo forestal de un bosque de Nothofagus pumilio: 2. Incidencia del ramoneo de Lama guanicoe
(Facultad de Ciencias Forestales y Recursos Naturales, Universidad Austral de Chile, 1999)Los Nothofagus presentan inconvenientes para regenerarse cuando son sometidos a disturbios sistemáticos y permanentes, como lo es el sobrepastoreo. Los bosques de Tierra del Fuego, libres de ganado vacuno, son afectados ... -
Desarrollo de un modelo para asignación variable de carga animal (MAVC) en Patagonia Sur
(Fundación CIPAV, 2016-11)El ajuste de la carga animal es un aspecto clave en el manejo del pastoreo extensivo y en Santa Cruz, Argentina se realiza tradicionalmente utilizando una asignación fija de forraje (AFF) por animal, indistintamente si un ... -
Diversidad de plantas vasculares en bosques continuos y relictuales de Nothofagus antárctica (Nothofagaceae) en Patagonia austral
(Universidad de Magallanes, Chile, 2019)La historia de los bosques de Nothofagus antarctica (ñire, ñirre) está asociada a profundos disturbios geológicos y climáticos. A éstos se le suman los disturbios más recientes, que junto a los usos culturales de la tierra ... -
Dominant native and non‐native graminoids differ in key leaf traits irrespective of nutrient availability
(Wiley, 2020-03-12)Nutrient enrichment is associated with plant invasions and biodiversity loss. Functional trait advantages may predict the ascendancy of invasive plants following nutrient enrichment but this is rarely tested. Here, we ... -
Drivers of seedling establishment success in dryland restoration efforts.
(Springer Nature, 2021-09)Restoration of degraded drylands is urgently needed to mitigate climate change, reverse desertification and secure livelihoods for the two billion people who live in these areas. Bold global targets have been set for dryland ... -
Early stage litter decomposition across biomes
(Elsevier, 2018-02-22)Through litter decomposition enormous amounts of carbon is emitted to the atmosphere. Numerous large-scale decomposition experiments have been conducted focusing on this fundamental soil process in order to understand the ... -
Effectiveness of fencing and hunting to control Lama guanicoe browsing damage: Implications for Nothofagus pumilio regeneration in harvested forests
(2016-03-01)Browsing damage by native ungulates is often to be considered one of the reasons of regeneration failure in Nothofagus pumilio silvicultural systems. Fencing and hunting in forests at regeneration phase have been proposed ... -
Effects of Climate and Atmospheric Nitrogen Deposition on Early to Mid-Term Stage Litter Decomposition Across Biomes
(Frontiers Editorial, 2021-07-14)Litter decomposition is a key process for carbon and nutrient cycling in terrestrial ecosystems and is mainly controlled by environmental conditions, substrate quantity and quality as well as microbial community abundance ... -
The effects of land management (grazing intensity) vs. the effects of topography, soil properties, vegetation type, and climate on soil carbon concentration in Southern Patagonia
(Elsevier, 2016-11)Grazing is an economically important activity in Southern Patagonia’s steppe and woodland ecosystems. In the past, emphasis has been on maximizing the provisioning capacity of these ecosystems with little concern for the ... -
Effects of long-term low intensity silviculture and habitat on birds in Nothofagus antarctica forests of south Patagonia
(Elsevier, 2022-04-30)Low intensity silviculture has been used to decrease the impact of forest harvesting, for example, on bird species and structural diversity. The objective of this work was to analyse the long-term effect of thinning on ... -
Environmental Conditions and Grazing Exerted Effects on Arbuscular Mycorrhizal in Plants at Southern Patagonia Rangelands
(Elsevier, 2022-03)Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi play a major role in maintaining ecosystem functions. AM fungi are found in most ecosystems including rangelands currently under increasing pressures from human activities. Southern Patagonia ... -
Essential Nutrient and Trace Element Foliar Resorption of Two Co-Existing Nothofagus Species Grown Under Different Environmental Conditions in Southern Patagonia
(Frontiers Media, 2019-11)Nutrient resorption is crucial for mineral element conservation and efficiency of forest species, but knowledge on its significance and the mechanisms involved is still limited for most species and habitats. Focusing on ... -
Establecimiento y producción de forraje de cereales de invierno en la patagonia austral
(Asociación Argentina de Producción Animal, 2020-12)Se realizó un ensayo con el objetivo de evaluar el establecimiento y la producción de forraje para henificación de una variedad y líneas de triticale (X Triticosecale Wittmack), variedades de trigo pan (Triticum aestivum ... -
