Las riberas son ecosistemas espacial y temporalmente heterogéneos que favorecen una alta diversidad, pero que se podrían ver afectadas por la intensificación de ciertas perturbaciones antrópicas. Con el propósito de aportar información de base, que permita evaluar los efectos sobre la biodiversidad de eventuales disturbios, se caracteriza la vegetación por sus grupos biológicos y se analizan tres aspectos: la diversidad a tres escalas (margen, tramo y cuenca), su relación con características topográficas y edáficas y los cambios asociados a la presencia de ganado. Se identificaron 130 taxa; entre ellas, Cynodon dactylon y Eleocharis spp. tuvieron una frecuencia cercana al 100% y fueron los de mayor cobertura. Se halló 51% de especies herbáceas perennes,... |

Managing human-dominated landscapes such as agroecosystems is one of the main challenges facing society today. Decisions about land-use management in agroecosystems involve spatial and temporal trade-offs. The key scales at which these trades-offs occur are poorly understood for most systems, and quantitative assessments of the services provided by agroecosystems under different combinations of land uses are rare. To fill these knowledge gaps, we measured 12 ecosystem services (ES), including climate regulation, gas regulation, soil stability, nutrient regulation, habitat quality, raw material production, food production, fishing, sports, recreation, education, and social relationships, in seven common land-use types at three spatial scales, i.e., patch,... |

ABSTRACT The species of the Urochloa genus, exotic and infesting in Brazilian waters, are known to be invasive and dominant, occupying from humid, shallow areas, and irrigation canals to margins of deep reservoirs. This paper hypothesis that less depth reservoirs have higher infestation rate and higher biomass of U. arrecta. The objectives were to measure the percentage of occurrence of exotic macrophyte U. arrecta in 40 ecosystems from the Mamanguape basin (Paraíba, Brazil) and determine the infestation of the species in two reservoirs. The acquired data were geo-referenced with the ArcGIS software (v. 9.3). A covariance analysis was performed using the R program (The R project is Statistical Computing). The results showed large spatial distribution of... |
