Globally invariant metabolism but density-diversity mismatch in springtails

Anton M. Potapov, +96 more
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors estimate the total soil springtail biomass at 27.5 megatons carbon, which is threefold higher than wild terrestrial vertebrates, and record peak densities up to 2 million individuals per square meter in the tundra.
Journal ArticleDOI

Resource allocation patterns in a forb and a sedge in two arctic environments—short‐term response to herbivory

TL;DR: Investigation of C and N allocation patterns in two forage plants in subarctic Sweden and high arctic Canada finds that Eriophorum did not show clear trends in concentrations relating to habitat, phenology or simulated herbivory, and apparently resulted from contrasting growth habits between the species.
Journal ArticleDOI

Assessment of climate change pattern in the Pauri Garhwal of the Western Himalayan Region: based on climate parameters and perceptions of forest-dependent communities.

TL;DR: The results can be used to reduce the gap between bottom-up understanding and top-down policies and to formulate precautionary and ongoing site-specific adaptation practices for communities in different altitude zones in the study region, leading to effective and efficient mitigation of climate change impacts.
Journal ArticleDOI

Distribution, pollution, and human health risks of persistent and potentially toxic elements in the sediments around Hainan Island, China.

TL;DR: Zhang et al. as discussed by the authors found that the concentrations of six potentially toxic elements (Cd, Cu, Zn, As, Pb, and Hg), sampled in nine different cities, were linked to human activities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Improved ecological monitoring for urban ecosystem protection in China

TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper developed a transdisciplinary framework to build up the ecological redline monitoring network in Shanghai metropolitan area, using: biodiversity, landscape structure, ecosystem function, and stakeholder opinions.
