Excess anthropogenic nitrogen is a key stressor in coastal and marine ecosystems, where it can alter primary production, create eutrophic and anoxic conditions, and affect biodiversity, structure, and function. The salt marsh cordgrass, Spartina alterniflora, is a foundation plant species in salt marsh ecosystems along...

Under ongoing climate change and increasing land-use intensity, understanding the response of different tree species to soil sodification and salinization is essential for sustainable forest management. In this study, we evaluated the content of Na, Cl−, Fe, Mn, and SO42− in the leaves of 90 mature pedunculate oak (Que...

Estuarine seagrass meadows are ecologically and socio-economically valuable habitats, but face pressures from nutrient runoffs, drift algal accumulations, and introduced species. In the Swan River estuary (Western Australia), the introduced snail Batillaria australis has proliferated since initial observations in 1954....

Riparian ecosystems are biodiversity hotspots but are also highly vulnerable to biological invasions due to strong hydrological connectivity, recurrent disturbance and exposure to nutrient inputs. This study examined patterns of invasive alien plant species (IAS) occurrence along two lowland rivers in eastern Poland (t...

In contrast to the homogenized biodiversity of intensive agriculture, the argan forest is shaped by low-intensity, traditional silvo-pastoral practices that foster a highly heterogeneous landscape. This study addresses a critical research gap by examining how indigenous systems, such as the Agdal, and argan canopy...

Restoration of reactivated sand dunes in hot-arid environments is challenging because plant establishment is constrained by highly variable rainfall, intense evaporative demand, aeolian disturbance and recurrent biotic pressure. This study assessed short-term vegetation change in a protected and restored reactivated du...
