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 ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
Microbial processing of plant remains is co‐limited by multiple nutrients in global grasslands
(Wiley, 2020-06)Microbial processing of aggregate‐unprotected organic matter inputs is key for soil fertility, long‐term ecosystem carbon and nutrient sequestration and sustainable agriculture. We investigated the effects of adding multiple ... -
Pastoreo estratégico de ambientes para mejorar la producción ovina en campos del ecotono Bosque-Estepa en Patagonia Sur = Strategic grazing management for better sheep production at the forest-grass steppe ecotone in southern Patagonia
(Asociación Argentina de Producción Animal, 2014-06)El manejo del pastoreo en sistemas ganaderos extensivos con múltiples ambientes se presenta como un desafío dadas las condiciones climáticas y la configuración de los ambientes en los grandes potreros (300-5000 ha) propios ... -
Potential biodiversity map of darkling beetles (Tenebrionidae): environmental characterization, land-uses and analyses of protection areas in Southern Patagonia
(Springer, 2019-07-23)Different methodologies had been developed for species management and conservation based on modelling of potential biodiversity at regional scales. However, most of these models were fitted for umbrella species (e.g. big ... -
Potential biodiversity map of lizard species in Southern Patagonia: environmental characterization, desertification influence and analyses of protection areas
(2018)The distribution of biodiversity at the landscape level is shaped by biotic, abiotic and anthropogenic factors. Biodiversity maps provide the basis for defining management and conservation strategies that can minimize human ... -
Relating water use to morphology and environment of Nothofagus from the world’s most southern forests
(2014-02)A pronounced environmental gradient dictates the dominance of Nothofagus in the foothills on the eastern side of the Andes Mountains in Patagonia, Argentina. Below 50° southern latitude, open forests of Nothofagus antarctica ... -
Retention Forestry in Southern Patagonia: Multiple Environmental Impacts and Their Temporal Trends
(Commonwealth Forestry Association, 2015-06)Harvesting with variable retention (VR) applied in Nothofagus forests combines two types of retention: patches of original forest (aggregates) and single isolated homogeneously distributed trees (dispersed). This study ... -
Sheep faeces decomposition and nutrient release across an environmental gradient in Southern Patagonia
(2017-04)In Southern Patagonia, most of the land ranging from the mountains to the sea in contrasting environmental conditions is devoted to extensive sheep farming. Existing estimations indicate that in ecosystems under livestock ... -
Soil microbial communities respond to an environmental gradient of grazing intensity in south Patagonia Argentina
(Elsevier, 2020)Soil microorganisms communities regulate key functions in terrestrial ecosystems and contributes to the formation of stable organic matter and hence climate change mitigation. The structure, diversity and activity of soil ... -
Spatial heterogeneity in species composition constrains plant community responses to herbivory and fertilisation
(Wiley, 2018-09)Environmental change can result in substantial shifts in community composition. The associated immigration and extinction events are likely constrained by the spatial distribution of species. Still, studies on environmental ... -
State and transition model approach in native forests of Southern Patagonia (Argentina): linking ecosystem services, thresholds and resilience
(Taylor & Francis, 2017-04)The sustainable use of ñire forests requires knowledge of its dynamics and management to maintain long-term main forest ecosystem services. The aim of this work was to develop a structural–functional state and transition ...
