Community specific hydraulic conductance potential of soil water decomposed for two Alpine grasslands by small-scale lysimetry
(2018)For central Europe in addition to rising temperatures an increasing variability in precipitation is predicted. This will increase the probability of drought periods in the Alps, where water supply has been sufficient in ... -
Decline of rare and specialist species across multiple taxonomic groups after grassland intensification and abandonment
(2018)Traditionally managed mountain grasslands are declining as a result of abandonment or intensification of management. Based on a common chronosequence approach we investigated species compositions of 16 taxonomic groups on ... -
Indigenous livestock breeds as indicators for cultural ecosystem services: A spatial analysis within the Alpine Space
(2018)Great changes have occurred in livestock management in recent decades that have been due to increased specialization and mechanization. In combination with a strong focus on high-yielding breeds and breeds that mainly offer ... -
Water stress limits transpiration and growth of European larch up to the lower subalpine belt in an inner-alpine dry
(2018)* Climate change will further constrain water availability in dry inner‐alpine environments and affect water relations and growth conditions in mountain forests, including the widespread larch forests. * To estimate the ... -
Flowering Farmland Competitions in Europe: History, facts and potential interactions with agri-environmental measures
(2018)Flowering Farmland Competitions (FFLCs) are becoming more and more prominent, especially in Europe. By conducting a survey among organisers and by searching the internet we are able to give a historical and spatial overview ...
