Changes in forest structure modify understory and livestock occurrence along the natural cycle and different management strategies in Nothofagus antarctica forests
(Springer Nature, 2022-08-17)Sustainable forest management is proposed as a solution for many ecological and socioeconomic trade-offs associated with different forest uses. In Patagonia, silvopastoral systems were proposed to balance provisioning ... -
Changes in forest structure values along the natural cycle and different management strategies in Nothofagus antarctica forests
(Elsevier, 2021-04-15)Ecologically sustainable forest management aims to preserve ecosystem integrity by providing wood and non-wood values. For this, it is necessary to determine the losses produced by the different management practices in ... -
Changes in nutrient and fibre tissue contents in Nothofagus pumilio trees growing at site quality and crown class gradients
(Elsevier, 2022-02-01)Estimation of biomass and nutrient contents in tree components are essential for evaluating the impact of harvesting on carbon fixation capacity, bio-element recycling, and long-term effect on the balance that influence ... -
Cisticercosis visceral por Cysticercus tenuicollis en ovinos de faena en la Provincia de Santa Cruz, Argentina
(2018-03)Durante la zafra 2014-2015 en todos los frigoríficos de la localidad de Río Gallegos, provincia de Santa Cruz, llamó la atención un aumento importante de decomisos de vísceras rojas en corderos, debido a la presencia de ... -
Climate change-related growth improvements in a wide niche-breadth tree species across contrasting environments
(Oxford University Press, 2023-05-09)Background and Aims The vulnerability and responsiveness of forests to drought are immensely variable across biomes. Intraspecific tree responses to drought in species with wide niche breadths that grow across contrasting ... -
Climate regionalization of Santa Cruz province, Argentina
(Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM), 2023-02-17)La regionalización climática es esencial para la caracterización espacial y temporal de la variabilidad del clima, la producción de pronósticos meteorológicos y el análisis de tendencias a diferentes escalas, así como la ... -
Climatic controls of decomposition drive the global biogeography of forest tree symbioses
(Springer Nature, 2019-05-15)The identity of the dominant root-associated microbial symbionts in a forest determines the ability of trees to access limiting nutrients from atmospheric or soil pools1,2, sequester carbon3,4 and withstand the effects of ... -
Co-benefits of soil carbon protection for invertebrate conservation
(Elsevier, 2020-12)The global decline in invertebrate diversity requires urgent conservation interventions. However, identifying priority conservation areas for invertebrates remains a significant challenge. We hypothesized that aligning the ... -
Co-limitation toward lower latitudes shapes global forest diversity gradients
(Springer Nature, 2022-08-08)The latitudinal diversity gradient (LDG) is one of the most recognized global patterns of species richness exhibited across a wide range of taxa. Numerous hypotheses have been proposed in the past two centuries to explain ... -
Comment on “Worldwide evidence of a unimodal relationship between productivity and plant species richness”
(American Association for the Advancement of Science, 2016-01-29)Fraser et al. (Reports, 17 July 2015, p. 302) report a unimodal relationship between productivity and species richness at regional and global scales, which they contrast with the results of Adler et al. (Reports, 23 September ... -
Composition and Spatial Variation of Germinable Seed Bank in Burned Nothofagus pumilio Forests in Patagonia Argentina
(MDPI, 2022-11-12)The availability of soil-stored seed determines initial plant functional types in post-fire landscapes. We evaluated the post-fire regeneration of Nothofagus pumilio forests, in Patagonia, Argentina, analyzing the soil ... -
Compositional shifts of alpine plant communities across the high Andes.
(Wiley, 2023-09)Aim: Climate change is transforming mountain summit plant communities worldwide, but we know little about such changes in the High Andes. Understanding large-scale patterns of vegetation changes across the Andes, and the ... -
Compositional variation in grassland plant communities
(Ecological Society of America, 2023-06-08)Human activities are altering ecological communities around the globe. Understanding the implications of these changes requires that we consider the composition of those communities. However, composition can be summarized ... -
Conceptual framework to define management strategies for silvopastoral systems in native forests
(Asociación Argentina de Ecología., 2022-08-25)Most of the native forests in Argentina are used for livestock production with little sustainable silvopastoral management. Our objective here is to discuss different management strategies where natural and human capital ... -
Condiciones de suelo y vegetación en tres bosques quemados de Nothofagus pumilio en Argentina y experiencias para su restauración activa
(2018-08)El fuego es un disturbio importante en bosques de lenga de Chubut y Santa Cruz, en la Patagonia argentina. Según del tipo de bosque y la severidad del fuego, el sistema resultante puede diferir en gran medida respecto del ... -
Conservation values of understory vascular plants in even- and uneven-aged Nothofagus antarctica forests
(Springer, 2020-09)Usually, stands with aging trees are considered forests with higher conservation values, regardless their structural diversity and other functional attributes. Natural stands present a wide range of age structures, from ... -
Convergence of soil nitrogen isotopes across global climate gradients
(2015-02-06)Quantifying global patterns of terrestrial nitrogen (N) cycling is central to predicting future patterns of primary productivity, carbon sequestration, nutrient fluxes to aquatic systems, and climate forcing. With limited ... -
Correlations between physical and chemical defences in plants: tradeoffs, syndromes, or just many different ways to skin a herbivorous cat?
(Wiley, 2013-04)Most plant species have a range of traits that deter herbivores. However, understanding of how different defences are related to one another is surprisingly weak. Many authors argue that defence traits trade off against ... -
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 ... -
