Toimetame kuuel kaitsealusel sooalal , et sealseid kooslusi taastada . Anname all põgusa ülevaate sellest, kui kaugel oleme oma tegemistega erinevatel aladel.
Sel suvel ilmus on teadusartikkel kahepaiksete sigimispaikadest kaitsealadel ja majandusmetsades, kus on kasutatud andmeid ka ELFi sooprojekti aladelt. Artikli “Amphibians in drained forest landscapes: Conservation opportunities for commercial forests and protected sites” autoriteks on Liina Remm, Maarja Vaikre, Riinu Rannap ja Marko Kohv.
Nitrous oxide (N2O) is a powerful greenhouse gas and the main driver of stratospheric ozone depletion. Since soils are the largest source of N2O, predicting soil response to changes in climate or land use is central to understanding and managing N2O. Here we find that N2O flux can be predicted by models incorporating soil nitrate […]
