Ecological Conditions of Agricultural Land Use in Transcarpathia

Ecological and economic modelling in agricultural land use scenarios

Agricultural production and its associated land use comprise the most important key factor regarding biodiversity and environmental impact within the wider countryside in Denmark. Currently, a number of land use changes are implemented in environmental action plans, such as afforestation, restoring wetlands and protection of drinking water catchments. Growing attention is put on the potential o...

Ecological traits affect the sensitivity of bees to land‐use pressures in European agricultural landscapes

Bees are a functionally important and economically valuable group, but are threatened by land-use conversion and intensification. Such pressures are not expected to affect all species identically; rather, they are likely to be mediated by the species' ecological traits.Understanding which types of species are most vulnerable under which land uses is an important step towards effective conservat...

Impact of Agricultural Land Use on Macroinvertebrate Fauna in Lithuania

The present study aims at assessing changes in macroinvertebrate metrics in relation to the effects of agricultural land use in a lowland river. Cluster analysis techniques were applied to group river sites according to the similarity of total and relative abundances of taxonomic groups. Riverbed morphology and riparian vegetation were the main environmental variables differentiating between cl...
