Climate change causes air and seawater temperatures to differ from seasonal averages. This situation causes aquatic organisms to migrate to regions with more favorable conditions. It also changes the relationship between species by allowing many species to come into contact with that they should not normally come into contact with. Invasive species that reproduce and spread very rapidly due to the absence of predators and diseases in their new habitats cause national as well as international...

Lichens and mosses represent the macroscopic components of biological soil crusts (biocrusts). Their ability to exploit short periods of water availability and reversibly deactivate metabolism is crucial for their growth and survival. In this work we investigated photosynthesis reactivation, respectively after long (65–66 days) and short (15 days) dry periods, in lichen and moss species widespread in two Mediterranean environments (Portugal and Italy). Chlorophyll a fluorescence emission of...

As an aggressive invasive saltmarsh plant in many places worldwide, Spartina alterniflora has a wide distribution range in latitude. Previous studies have explored latitudinal trends in S. alterniflora productivity in its native regions using meta-analysis, whereas to the best of our knowledge, that in China as its largest invaded regions have not been reported. In this study, we performed meta-analysis to explore latitudinal trends in productivity as measured by the end-of-season-live (EOSL)...

Both plantation forests and native woodlands are currently facing challenges in the form of rapid climatic change and unprecedented increases in damage by exotic pests and diseases. To combat these problems it has been proposed that a range of novel exotic tree species (non-native species that have not yet undergone thorough operational testing or previously been grown at a forestry scale) should be grown as part of an adaptive management strategy, and that non-native (including novel) species...

Indigenous red-bellied pacu, Piaractus brachypomus, populations are in decline due to overfishing. Once ignored by aquaculturists because of their perceived low economic value, renewed aquaculture efforts in Central and South America aim to relieve fishing pressures on natural pacu populations. In the southern United States pacu aquaculture for the aquarium trade has raised concerns that accidental release could lead to establishment of overwintering populations outside captivity—a threat...

There has been considerable progress in elucidating the physical aspects of climate change that directly impact food, feed, and fiber production. However, these impact assessments rarely account for climate induced changes associated with biological pests. The lack of collaboration between the pest management and climate science disciplines could be contributing to the problem. Therefore, we assessed research-based relationships, identifying possible barriers to and gaps in successful...

The assessment of alien invasive species of Phytophthora genus causing serious forest tree species diseases was carried out in Lithuania. The presence of Phytophthora DNA was recorded for the first time using real-time PCR analysis on 23 DNA samples. The sampling included wood from diseased trees, leaves from shrubs, leaves baited in water, and soil samples taken around diseased plants. Extracted DNA from soil and plant tissues was tested for the presence of Phytophthora. All analysed samples...

Fuelwood is the major source of energy for tea drying in Sri Lanka. High moisture content and presence of latex in the wood are the two main problems in using Cluisia as a fuelwood in tea drying. This study was carried out at Moussakellie tea factory and Hapugastenne estate in Maskeliya to evaluate Clusia rosea as a fuelwood species in tea drying. Two fuelwood combinations were evaluated by estimating Specific Fuelwood Consumption (SFC). Moisture content of Clusia wood were measured in relation...

Ensuring the best use of limited conservation resources requires comprehensively assessing the relative importance of multiple threats, some of which occur at local and some at regional spatial scales. Multiple threats are rarely modeled in traditional population viability analyses (PVAs) due to the high data requirements necessary to parameterize age or stage based population models. Count based PVAs have been shown to provide robust results, and count data are readily available from many...
