• Severity of impacts of an introduced species corresponds with regional eco‐evolutionary experience 

      Davis, Kimberley T.; Callaway, Ragan M.; Fajardo, Alex; Pauchard, Aníbal; Nuñez, Martín Andres; Brooker, Rob W.; Maxwell, Bruce D.; Dimarco, Romina Daniela; Peltzer, Duane A.; Mason, Bill; Ruotsalainen, Seppo; McIntosh, Anne C.S.; Pakerman, Robin J.; Smith, Alyssa Laney; Gundale, Michel J. (John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2018-09)
      Invasive plant impacts vary widely across introduced ranges. We tested the hypothesis that differences in the eco-evolutionary experience of native communities with the invader correspond with the impacts of invasive species ...
    • Should tree invasions be used in treeless ecosystems to mitigate climate change? 

      Nuñez, Martin Andrés; Davis, Kimberley T.; Dimarco, Romina Daniela; Peltzer, Duane A.; Paritsis, Juan; Maxwell, Bruce D.; Pauchard, Aníbal (The Ecological Society of America, 2021)
      Intentionally allowing or promoting invasion by non-native trees into areas characterized by treeless vegetation could contribute to climate-change mitigation by increasing carbon (C) sequestration. In some areas of the ...
    • Structural–functional approach to identify post-disturbance recovery indicators in forests from northwestern Patagonia: a tool to prevent state transitions 

      Cavallero, Laura; Lopez, Dardo Ruben; Raffaele, Estela; Aizen, Marcelo Adrian (Elsevier, 2015-05)
      The disruption of the natural post-disturbance recovery process, either by changes in disturbance regime or by another disturbance, can trigger transitions to alternative degraded states. In a scenario of high disturbance ...
    • Tensiones entre conservación de ecosistemas y desarrollo territorial: hacia un abordaje socioecológico en las Ciencias Agropecuarias 

      Easdale, Marcos Horacio; Lopez, Dardo Ruben; Aguiar, Martín Roberto (Editorial Potificia Universidad Javeriana, 2018-06)
      Las ciencias agropecuarias constituyen un vínculo académico entre sociología y ecología. Actualmente, existe la predominancia de una perspectiva tecnocrática orientada a aumentar la productividad y la eficiencia, con una ...
    • Tracking floristic archetypes of Patagonian steppes 

      Easdale, Marcos Horacio; Martin Albarracin, Valeria Leticia; Perri, Daiana Vanesa; Lopez, Dardo Ruben; Bruzzone, Octavio Augusto (Wiley, 2024-03)
      Questions: The classification of plant communities is a well-established practice in ecology. However, the factors that determine the distribution of common species and the extent of their dominance and overlap are still ...
    • Unintended consequences of planting native and non-native trees in treeless ecosystems to mitigate climate change 

      Moyano, Jaime; Dimarco, Romina Daniela; Paritsis, Juan; Peterson, Tess; Peltzer, Duane A.; Crawford, Kerri M.; McCary, Matthew A.; Davis, Kimberley T.; Pauchard, Aníbal; Nuñez, Martin Andrés (Wiley, 2024-03)
      Naturally treeless ecosystems are being replaced by native and non-native trees worldwide, often through deliberate afforestation using forestry tree species. By introducing species having novel traits, such as relatively ...
    • Vegetation structure is as important as climate for explaining ecosystem function across Patagonian rangelands 

      Gaitan, Juan Jose; Oliva, Gabriel Esteban; Bran, Donaldo Eduardo; Maestre, Fernando Tomás; Aguiar, Martín Roberto; Jobbagy Gampel, Esteban Gabriel; Buono, Gustavo Gabriel; Ferrante, Daniela; Nakamatsu, Viviana Beatriz; Ciari, Georgina; Salomone, Jorge Manuel; Massara Paletto, Virginia (2014-11)
      1. Drylands cover about 41% of Earth’s land surface, and 65% of their area supports domestic livestock that depends on the above-ground net primary productivity (ANPP) of natural vegetation. Thus, understanding how biotic ...
