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...

Present land-use forms, such as former coal mines turned into lakes, solar parks, wind farms, mixed/test forests and biological (organic) agriculture, cater more for ‘human wellbeing’ or building sustainable economie...

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 ...

Millions of microorganisms—including bacteria, viruses, fungi, archaea, and protists—reside on and within the human body, collectively forming the human microbiota. This complex and dynamic community plays a crucial ...

The Liguro-Provençal arc yields unique deposits documenting the Middle-Upper Paleolithic transition. Yet, interpreting shifts in subsistence strategies in this region has remained challenging, mainly due to taphonomic p...

Recent studies of the Middle and Upper Paleolithic in the northwestern Caucasus are focused on the research of relations between natural (climate and environment) and social (behavior and adaptations) factors that govern...

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...

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 ...

This article explores how Roy employs the metaphor of clay and the motif of pottery to articulate an urgent ecological vision rooted in artistic resistance. Anuradha Roy’s The Earthspinner is a poignant meditation on t...

Understanding the knowledge, attitudes and perceptions of the local communities towards the target species before implementing any awareness-based programmes is essential for the success and long-term protection of the s...

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...

In the context of the arid region rangelands, the community's livelihood is highly dependent on the ecosystem's services, including the proper management and use of natural resources. This research evaluates the effects ...

Most alpine ecosystems are subject to non-native species invasion as climate warms and human disturbance increases. Therefore, it is important to identify the main barriers and facilitators of alpine plant invasions. Whi...

Hunting and gathering remained the main mode of subsistence of humanity for hundreds of thousands of years, beginning some 1.8 million years ago, and until the Neolithic Revolution (some 10,000 years ago), when agricultu...

With their ground-nesting habits, the Red-wattled Lapwing Vanellus indicus are particularly vulnerable to urbanization, which ffects their nesting behaviour, reproductive success, and habitat use. The present study was...

As in countless other fields of human endeavor, small unmanned aircraft systems (sUAS) have the potential to benefit pinniped (Pinnipedia; e.g., Phocidae [seals], Otariidae [sea lions], and Odobenidae [walruses]) respons...

Farmland expanded quickly at the expense of natural lands in Argentina since the mid-1950's without consideration of ecological costs. In order to analyze the implications of such changes we aimed to (i) develop a simple...

In this work we will try to present the most crucial social problems that exist in the expansion process of one of the most important metropolitan areas in the world. The competition for the territory in the periphery is...

Abstract Soil microbes are essential for ecosystem functioning, affecting soil health and fertility. The microbial diversity present in soil is influenced by diverse land-use practices and environmental conditions; howev...

This article shares an interdisciplinary artistic experience that weaves ecosomatic practices and dance as ways to cultivate attention, attunement, and care in our relationship with the Earth. The research is grounded in...

ABSTRACT The black-headed night monkey, Aotus nigriceps, has one of the largest distribution ranges of the 11 night monkey species found across Central and South America. Yet, only three studies have focused on their eco...
