Early Successional Microhabitats Allow the Persistence of Endangered Plants in Coastal Sand Dunes
Many species are adapted to disturbance and occur within dynamic, mosaic landscapes that contain early and late successional microhabitats.

Because restoring historical disturbance regimes is typically expensive and requires action at large spatial scal...

Due to the settlements in the wind erosion centers of this area, the necessity of determining the origin of sands, the analysis of the hazards caused by the displacement of sand dunes and factors creating these hazards are the goals of this study. It is a descriptive-analytical study based on both field a...
متن کاملGreat Sand Dunes
Endemic species are those that exist at only one location or area on Earth. They tend to be more numerous in habitats that are distinctly different from the surrounding areas. The Great Sand Dunes harbor at least seven endemic species of insects. Many of the insects here are ‘sand obligates’, meaning that they are adapted uniquely for sandy habitats. Currently, just over 1,000 different kinds o...
