The majority of the world’s forests are located at landscape edges and highly fragmented; plantations on Loess Plateau no exception, experiencing pronounced edge effects. However, effects often overlooked in assessments carbon storage biodiversity, extent impact these remain inadequately understood. objective this study is to reveal how influence biodiversity species composition examine their long-term impacts ecosystem structure function. Furthermore, it aims explore mechanisms underlying...

Bees provide key pollination services for a wide range of crops. Accumulating evidence shows the effect semi-natural habitats at landscape level and local management practices on bee diversity in fields. However, most is derived from studies North America Europe. Whether this paradigm applicable China, which characterized by smallholder-dominated agricultural landscapes, has rarely been studied. In study, we aimed to investigate how affected apple production, variables species composition...

The Grain for Green Project (GGP) aims to protect and improve the ecological environment, end farming on sloping farmland, plant trees restore forest vegetation. China’s GGP has been widely implemented, but its impact environment is rarely evaluated from farmers’ perspectives. This study took place in Zhidan Yanchang Counties, Shaanxi Province. Farmers’ attitudes towards were investigated through semi-structured interviews understand their perceptions of changes ecosystem services level...

Artificial afforestation is considered as one of the key ecological restoration measures. The early large-scale, single-species method detrimental to environment. However, there still a lack empirical research on differences in understory biodiversity between monoculture and mixed forests, well response mechanisms plants environmental factors. We compared plant diversity different types plantations analyzed species composition impact local scales (soil organic matter, soil-available...

In recent years, the problem of ecosystem degradation caused by human activities has become increasingly serious. Vegetation restoration is a key means to solve this problem, which increased. To address suitability and structural optimization vegetation in Loess Plateau, MaxEnt model was used quantify impacts environmental on planting species at raster scale. Three layers trees, shrubs, herbs with 12 common were selected. The factor index system constructed combining climatic, ecological,...

Abstract Old growth temperate broadleaved forests are characterised by a large proportion of forest specialists with low dispersal capability. Hence, species bound to this habitat expected be highly susceptible the effects decreasing patch size and increasing isolation. Here, we investigate relative effect both factors genotyping individuals flightless specialist beetle C arabus problematicus from 29 populations, sampled in 21 different fragments Belgium, at eight microsatellite loci. A high...

Soybean (Glycine max) is a protein-rich oilseed crop that extensively used for cooking oil and poultry feed faces significant challenges due to adverse global climatic conditions aggravated by the ongoing climate crisis. In response this critical issue, study was initiated assess suitable zones soybean cultivation, aiming facilitate informed land use decisions within semi-arid terrestrial ecosystem. Through utilization of geostatistical interpolation, data layers encompassing soil,...

Plant architecture is one of the determinants on canopy light absorption and photosynthesis. The quantification rather difficult for some specific crops, i.e. tobacco. In this study, a field experiment was carried out to study two tobacco cultivars (Y87 K326) in situ by combination 3-D laser scanning digitizing methods at squaring stage. Static model plant built based leaf surface geometry (collected scanning) outline (obtained situ). parameters describing were derived potential...

Habitat fragmentation threatens the sustainability of ecological restoration. Understanding variation in intraspecific traits helped to reveal functional resource-use strategies plants response environmental changes. We sampled different landscape types forest configurations, where most widespread species was Robinia pseudoacacia. From each plot, from two five R. pseudoacacia individuals were selected for further examinations. Plant development and leaf traits—leaf area (LA), specific (SLA),...
