Designing perennial crop-based agroforestry systems: specificities, challenges, and opportunitiesNARA Subscribed
Diversification of farming systems at plot scale is increasingly seen as an essential option to meet agriculture sustainability challenges and support agroecological transition. Significant progress has been made in recent years on methods for designing diversified cropping systems based on annual crops. However, few methods have been tested for designing diversified cropping systems based on perennial crops, and in particular...
The impact of air pollution on respiratory and circulatory diseases is a major public health topic. The present study examines the impact of air pollution and weather on hospital admissions for circulatory and respiratory diseases in adults in the Lyon metropolitan area, France. A quasi-Poisson generalized linear model, along with a distributed lag nonlinear model (DLNM), was used to investigate the nonlinear exposure-response...
In vitro propagation of Prunus sp. using semi-solid media allows clonal multiplication but requires frequent subcultures and higher labor and material costs. In contrast, temporary immersion bioreactors (TIBs) promoted faster shoot elongation, higher biomass accumulation, and improved overall shoot quality, while reducing handling time and the cost per regenerated plant. This work aimed to establish in vitro selected rootstock...
Motivation Here, we make available a second version of the BioTIME database, which compiles records of abundance estimates for species in sample events of ecological assemblages through time. The updated version expands version 1.0 of the database by doubling the number of studies and includes substantial additional curation to the taxonomic accuracy of the records, as well as the metadata. Moreover, we now provide an R packag...
Land use change threatens global biodiversity and compromises ecosystem functions, including pollination and food production. Reduced taxonomic α‐diversity is often reported under land use change, yet the impacts could be different at larger spatial scales (i.e., γ‐diversity), either due to reduced β‐diversity amplifying diversity loss or increased β‐diversity dampening diversity loss. Additionally, studies often focus on taxo...
Trends in airborne grass pollen in Évora City (Portugal)NARA Subscribed
Aerobiology could be used as complementary data or proxy for studying phenology, especially in species which usually are not long-distance transported, such as grasses. This 21-year aerobiological study took place in Évora (South Portugal), using a seven-day recording volumetric pollen trap with the aim of analysing the temporal trends of grass pollen seasons. To this end, data were statistically tested for correlation and reg...
Seabirds have been particularly affected by invasive non‐native species, which has led to the implementation of numerous eradication campaigns for the conservation of these keystone and highly vulnerable species. Although the benefits of eradication of invasive non‐native species for seabird conservation have been demonstrated, the recovery kinetics of different seabird populations on islands after eradication remains poorly e...
Anguillid eels are found globally in fresh, transitional and saline waters and have played an important role in human life for centuries. The population status of several species is now of significant concern. The threats to populations include direct exploitation at different life stages, blockages to migratory routes by dams and other structures, changes in river basin management that impact habitat carrying capacity and sui...
