Abstract Understanding how multi‐scale environmental heterogeneity shapes the structure and functions of animal plant communities is pivotal in agroecology. Our capacity to ensure provision ecosystem services (ES), sustainability agroecosystems efficiency agri‐environmental schemes (AES) relies on this knowledge. There growing interest biodiversity ES are affected by interplay between landscape characteristics agricultural management (e.g., intermediate complexity hypothesis; ILCH). However,...
Farming impacts animal-mediated seed dispersal through mechanisms operating on at least two spatial scales. First, the landscape scale, habitat loss and land conversion to agriculture/livestock grazing, second, farm via a local intensification of agricultural practices. These scales farming impact function but have rarely been integrated. In particular, studies evaluating effect agriculture frugivorous birds in Mediterranean ecosystems are lacking. This study evaluates role transformation,...
Seed dispersal by frugivores is a key ecological process underpinning the functionality of woodland patches and their capacity to maintain biodiversity in agricultural landscapes. Resident migratory avian differ temporal span local occurrence, as well mobility territoriality. However, whether landscape homogenization agriculture affects seed differing strategy remains largely unexplored. We hypothesized positive role on frugivore abundance seed-dispersal frequency, differential impact loss...
ResumenEn este estudio se evaluó el efecto de aplicar hipnosis para resistir esfuerzos máximos durante mayor tiempo posible.Participaron en la investigación 24 deportistas juveniles y aficionados practicantes ciclismo, con una edad media 17,75 años (Sd 0,97), peso medio 68 Kg 3,98), talla 178 cm 15,02) un promedio 5,75 compitiendo 0,48).Estos distribuyeron aleatoriamente dos grupos denominados: control.La intervención consistió utilización breve técnica relajación, fase inducción hipnótica,...
Greenhouses in the province of Almeria, one largest agro-industrial clusters world, have been subject various technical and environmental analyses which, until now, demand for electricity has not included necessary depth detail. This circumstance is justified by fact that productive activity on farms, its current configuration, cannot be considered as highly energy demanding and, especially, because impact balance sheets all industries providing auxiliary services to greenhouses taken into...
