Diversity patterns in the steppe of Argentinean Southern Patagonia: Environmental drivers and impact of grazing
(NOVA Science Publishers, 2013)The steppe ecosystem, mainly characterised by the presence of tussock, short grasses and shrubs, covers 85% of the total area in Santa Cruz Province and 25% in Tierra del Fuego Island. Most of the land in the Patagonian ... -
Ecosystem Services in Patagonia: A Multi-Criteria Approach for an Integrated Assessment
(Springer Nature, 2021-04-27)This book aims to quantify and discuss how societies have directly and indirectly benefited from ecosystem services in Patagonia; not only in terms of provisioning and cultural services, but also regulating and supporting ... -
Ecosystem services in Patagonia: A synthesis and future directions.
(Springer, 2021-04-27)In this closing chapter, we provide a synthesis of the Patagonian ecosystems and ES that were more frequently addressed in the preceding chapters, along with the main transformations and associated drivers. We also synthetize ... -
Latitude, Elevation, and Mean Annual Temperature Predict Peat Organic Matter Chemistry at a Global Scale
(Wiley, 2022-02)Peatlands contain a significant fraction of global soil carbon, but how these reservoirs will respond to the changing climate is still relatively unknown. A global picture of the variations in peat organic matter chemistry ... -
Neochelanops michaelseni (Pseudoscorpiones: Chernetidae) as potential bioindicator in managed and unmanaged Nothofagus forests of Tierra del Fuego
(BioOne, 2015-11-01)Bioindicators could act as early warning indicators of environmental changes, ecosystem stress or taxonomic diversity. Pseudoscorpions have rarely been used as bioindicators, due to lack of information about their ecology, ... -
Variation in carbon and nitrogen concentrations among peatland categories at the global scale
(PLOS, 2022-11-23)Peatlands account for 15 to 30% of the world’s soil carbon (C) stock and are important controls over global nitrogen (N) cycles. However, C and N concentrations are known to vary among peatlands contributing to the uncertainty ...
