San Roman Sanz, A., C. Fernandez, F. Mouillot, L. Ferrat, D. Istria, and V. Pasqualini. 2013. Long-term forest dynamics land-use abandonment in the Mediterranean mountains, Corsica, France. Ecology Society 18(2): 38. https://doi.org/10.5751/ES-05556-180238
Smouldering of the forest subsurface can be responsible for a large fraction total fuel consumed during wildfires.Subsurface fires take place in organic material stored shallow layers like duff or humus, and deeper peat, landfills coal seams.These play mayor role global emission to atmosphere, destruction carbon storage soil damage natural environment.Burning dynamics two different ecosystems affected by smouldering wildfires are studied here; boreal peat Mediterranean humus.A series...
Fire is a dominant ecological factor in Mediterranean-type ecosystems. Management strategies include prescribed (controlled) burning, which has been used the management of several species, such as Pinus nigra ssp laricio var. Corsicana, pine endemic to Corsica great and economic importance. The effects burning on have little studied. first aim this study was characterize total simple phenolic compounds laricio. second understand: i) short term (one three months) medium (three years) ii)...
1. A monitoring system was developed in two Corsican coastal lagoons (Biguglia and Urbino; Corsica, Western Mediterranean). 2. Three species of seagrass (Nanozostera noltii, Ruppia cirrhosa Cymodocea nodosa) were monitored by (i) measuring spatio-temporal changes the seagrasses, using fixed structures, (ii) investigating temporal biological parameters (iii) mapping their distribution processing aerial images both lagoons. 3. These investigations showed that, while exhibit, a priori, certain...

Wildfire pressure involves today to implement silvicultural practices that provide a good compromise between reducing fire risk and maintaining ecological functioning. Thinning reduces tree density low branches, but results in the deposition of considerable biomass woody debris on ground (up 4800 g m
The aim of this study was to examine the experimental uptake mercury and enzymatic response, i.e., glutathione S-transferase (GST) activity, metal introduced into medium under organic (methylmercury chloride) nonorganic (mercury forms. Shoots Posidonia oceanica were collected in a nonpolluted area northwestern Mediterranean Sea treated aquaria with increasing concentrations/exposure times (48, 96, 144 h). Compared controls, significant noted blades contaminated by HgCl2, whereas sheaths,...
The dynamics of Ruppia cirrhosa were studied over two years in coastal lagoons on the Corsican coast (France, Mediterranean Sea). differed type eutrophication: (1) Biguglia lagoon (urban and industrial effluent, agriculture, runoff from catchment area) (2) Santa Giulia (tourist pressure summer). Spatio-temporal variability R. occurrence was monitored permanent transects. We also temporal changes density, aboveground/belowground biomass organic matter. Most parameters along transects show...
