Photodegradation and Its Effect on Plant Litter Decomposition in Terrestrial Ecosystems: A Systematic Review
Mohammed Bakr Hussain,Sara H Al-Hadidi,Mohammad Bagher Erfanian,Mohamed Nejib Daly Yahia,Muhammed Nayeem Mullungal,Mohammed Alsafran,Yang Bai,Juha M. Alatalo +7 more
TL;DR: In this article , the effect of a wider spectrum of solar radiation (sun light, UV, and visible light) on plant litter decay in terrestrial ecosystems has been investigated, and the results suggest that the mechanisms controlling the responses are unclear and might be dependent on several interactions.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Biomass distribution and soil characteristics along the distance from the coast in a natural mangrove forest in Qatar
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the change in biomass of Avicennia marina, the only mangrove species in Qatar, along the distance from coast and the relationship between biomass and soil characteristics.

TL;DR: The analysis proceeds in several steps, which can be viewed most easily by examining the ~/Wilcox_etal_DerivedData-and-Code/analysis_scripts/main_text-scripts/patches_source_all_scripts.R file.
Journal ArticleDOI
The impacts of water level fluctuations from paddy fields and aquaculture ponds on wetland habitats for wintering waterbirds: Implications for wetland management
TL;DR: It is shown that paddy fields and aquaculture ponds should be considered as potential options for creating more suitable habitats for migratory waterbirds if combined with reasonable and effective management of the water level within the paddy Fields and aquACulture ponds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cushion plants act as facilitators for soil microarthropods in high alpine Sweden
TL;DR: Cushion plants can have positive impacts on plant richness in severe environments and possibly across trophic levels on arthropods, an under-studied topic, and differences in collembolan and mite abundance and species richness between cushions and adjacent vegetation increase with elevation.
