15 صفحه اولStudy on the variation of plant species diversity components along elevation gradient using additive partitioning (case study: protected area of Geno, Hormozgan province)
Conservation of vegetation is one of most important tools for conservation of soil and decreasing erosion. Therefore, knowledge about vegetation characteristics, such as diversity, is the first and most important biological tools for soil conservation. One of the methods in which we can collect useful data about plant diversity, is additive partitioning. In the current study, plant species dive...
متن کاملRelative growth rate variation of evergreen and deciduous savanna tree species is driven by different traits.
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Plant relative growth rate (RGR) depends on biomass allocation to leaves (leaf mass fraction, LMF), efficient construction of leaf surface area (specific leaf area, SLA) and biomass growth per unit leaf area (net assimilation rate, NAR). Functional groups of species may differ in any of these traits, potentially resulting in (1) differences in mean RGR of groups, and (2) dif...
متن کاملIs bigger really better? Relative and absolute body size influence individual growth rate under competition
Models suggest that the mechanism of competition can influence the growth advantage associated with being large (in absolute body size or relative to other individuals in the population). Large size is advantageous under interference, but disadvantageous under exploitative competition. We addressed this prediction in a laboratory experiment on Rana temporaria tadpoles competing for limited food...
متن کاملHow Important Is Discount Rate Heterogeneity for Wealth Inequality?
This paper investigates the role of discount rate heterogeneity for wealth inequality. The key idea is to infer the distribution of preference parameters from the observed age pro le of wealth inequality. The contribution of preference heterogeneity to wealth inequality can then be measured using a quantitative life-cycle model. I nd that discount rate heterogeneity increases the Gini coe¢ cie...
