Ecology and sustainability are increasingly approached as a coupled socio-ecological agenda for balancing human needs, ecosystem integrity, and long-term resilience within ecological limits Rapid climate risks, accelerat...

Despite having >1200 described species and despite their nearly worldwide distribution and prevalence in many xeric ecosystems, relative to many other arachnid groups, we know little about the natural history and behavio...

Horticultural growing media (GM) are increasingly expected to provide reliable biological functions, yet microbial inoculants and native microbiota often perform inconsistently. We argue that this variability arises beca...

Abstract Background Movement to spawn in offshore waters provides numerous benefits to inshore marine fish and crustacean species, but there is often limited empirical data on the behaviour and ecology of this key aspect...

A rising human impact alters landscape patterns and determines the agriculture–ecology–economy nexus (AEEN), which further threatens the sustainability of social–ecological system (SES). However, the mechanisms thr...

Background - Plants in over one hundred families in habitats worldwide bear extrafloral nectaries (EFNs). EFNs display a remarkable diversity of evolutionary origins, as well as diverse morphology and location on the pla...

The social appropriation of water in Patagonia is not only associated with its historical-spatial configuration and the uses of the territory, but also with the social, environmental and economic interests around water, ...

This article advances an integral eco-theology by incorporating two major normative developments of 2025 – the Conference of the Parties (COP) COP30 outcomes in Belém and the Earth Charter+25 renewal – into a cohere...

Abstract Multi-isotope analyses of extant and extinct animals provide key insights into dietary ecology. Here, we examined mineral-bound nitrogen isotopes alongside carbonate carbon and oxygen stable isotope ratios in to...

Climate change and biodiversity loss have heightened global awareness on environmental design, unfolding paradigms of ecological design. Concepts such as nature-based solutions, urban nature, biophilic design and sponge ...

We provide a checklist of angiosperms collected in the Paraná River Delta Region during the 1990s and early 2000s. Plants were taxonomically identified and classified according to their origin (native/endemic and exotic...

Question: A set of easily‐measured (‘soft’) plant traits has been identified as potentially useful predictors of ecosystem functioning in previous studies. Here we aimed to discover whether the screening techniques...

La emergencia y la magnitud que los problemas ambientales han ganado en las tres ultimas décadas han posibilitado una gran producción científica acerca del tema de la ecología y el medio ambiente, principalmente en r...

Forest fragmentation poses a critical threat to ecosystem service functionality, particularly in rapidly urbanizing regions. This study investigates the spatio-temporal dynamics of forest fragmentation and its impacts on...

Dr. Carla Riva-Rossi has over 25 years’ experience studying the evolutionary ecology of anadromous fishes. She received an MS in biological sciences from the Facultad de Ciencias Naturales, Universidad Nacional de la P...

El presente trabajo se realizó tomando en consideración los datos obtenidos durante el dictado de la asignatura Ecología Humana de los años 2017 y 2019. En el plan de estudios vigente para la carrera Licenciatura en ...

Background and aims – While some plants achieve reproductive success through wind or deceptive pollination strategies, many animal-pollinated species depend on mutualistic interactions with pollinators, supported by fl...

Desde la época en que emerge la problemática ambiental contemporánea, esta ha devenido en objeto de análisis e intervención tanto para la ecología (en tanto área de la biología) como para distintos organismos int...

In studies on the reproduction and germination of species with indehiscent fruits containing a single seed, it is often assumed that all fruits that reach maturity contain a seed capable of generating a new plant. This i...

This comprehensive chapter covers various aspects of the biology and natural history of the huemul (Hippocamelus bisulcus), including names, taxonomy, subspecies and distribution, descriptive notes, habitat, movements an...

En nuestro país la mayoría de las investigaciones sobre ecología de anuros se realizaron a escala local y particularmente los referidos a la ecología de los estadios larvales han sido especialmente a nivel de poblaci...

Esta tesis problematiza los vínculos entre las sociedades y sus entornos. "Ecología" y "Praxis Ambiental" constituyen dos polos en tensión. Son palabras que remiten a sistemas de entidades Ecología y Praxis Ambiental...
