Environmental pollution (Barking, Essex : 1987)
Forests are important sinks of atmospheric mercury. Quantifying mercury pools in forest ecosystem tissues are essential for understanding the global mercury cycle. To reveal the characteristics of Hg concentration and Hg pool distribution in natural forests at different ages, samples from the vegetation layer, organic horizons, coarse wood debris, ...

ABSTRACT. In Brazil, the Steppe Savanna and associated vegetation types, typical of the Chaco, are in the Pantanal biome. Land use in this region has caused the suppression of natural vegetation and the emission of greenhouse gases. The knowledge of the phytophysiognomies of the Chaco and its importance for the mitigation and adaptation to climate ...

Dans le contexte du changement climatque global et celui des opportunités offertes à la filière forêt bois par le volet forestier du plan de relance gouvernemental, des espèces exotiques, taxonomiquement proches des espèces autochtones, peuvent être une solution de diversification bienvenue. C’est le cas du sapin de Bornmüller (Abies bornmuellerian...

Forest ecosystems are increasingly threatened by anthropogenic pressures, especially by the increase in drought frequency and intensity. Tree species mixtures could improve resilience to diverse global anthropogenic pressures. However, there is still little consensus on how tree diversity affects water stress. Although some studies suggest that mix...

Natural disturbances play a key role in the long-term evolution of a forest but are by essence unforeseeable. If a sustainable management is fixed in a forest, where the harvest is equal to the forest growth (such as at maximal sustainable yield), natural disturbances could jeopardise the established equilibrium by modifying the future forest growt...

Aim: The mosaic of savannas that persists in the forest-dominant Congo Basin is thought to be palaeoclimatic relics, but past biogeographical processes that have formed and maintained these systems are poorly understood. Here, we explored the post-Pleistocene biogeography of Gabon's savannas using termites as biological indicators to understand his...

Champignons et bactéries colonisent une infinité d’habitats sur Terre dans lesquels ils coexistent et forment des communautés complexes. Les écosystèmes forestiers offrent une multitude d’habitats pour ces micro-organismes : les tissus végétaux – vivants et morts, aériens et souterrains – et le sol, dans toute sa complexité d’horizons et de micro-n...

We conducted a contextualized lab experiment to determine whether competition between wood buyers affects pro-environmental behaviour, which is, the adoption of new sustainable biomass harvesting practices. We also test the effect of a non-monetary incentive, that is signing a declaration that commits wood buyers who voluntarily sign it to act in a...

[ES] El presente trabajo de fin de grado tiene como objetivo el diseño de un modelo de economía circular en el que estén relacionados los recursos de agricultura, ganadería y silvicultura. En primer lugar, se realizará el diseño de una explotación porcina de cerdo de cebo ibérico 50% con una capacidad de 1000 plazas distribuidas en dos naves de 500...

The selective management system (SMS) practised in Malaysia has emerged to optimise the sustainability of permanently reserved forest management. SMS requires a management regime (felling) to ensure economical harvesting and appropriate residual stands for the logging cycle, including ecological balance and environmental quality. SMS includes a Pos...
