Vegetation changes without grazing, Flat Top Hill, Central Otago
Permanent monitoring sites in Flat Top Hill Conservation Area in Central Otago were resurveyed in the spring of 1997, following a four-year interval in which rabbit numbers had been very low, and stock absent. All study sites showed considerable vegetation change between 1993 and 1997. The most significant changes in the vegetation were large increases in overall vascular species richness and d...
متن کاملAlpine Phytomass and Primary Productivity in Central Otago, New Zealand
Phytomass was measured and net potential productivity estimated for normal climatic conditions on the Otago rainshadow mountains. Seven tall snow tussock grasslands were compared with lower-statured cushion, herbfield and short grassland communities. Total phytomass ranged from c. 5-9 Kg m (22 000-40000 Kcal m) in tall tussock and c. 2-4 Kg m (8100-16500 Kcal m) in cushion, herbfield or short g...
متن کاملIncreasing summer rainfall in arid eastern-Central Asia over the past 8500 years
A detailed and well-dated proxy record of summer rainfall variation in arid Central Asia is lacking. Here, we report a long-term, high resolution record of summer rainfall extracted from a peat bog in arid eastern-Central Asia (AECA). The record indicates a slowly but steadily increasing trend of summer rainfall in the AECA over the past 8500 years. On this long-term trend are superimposed seve...
متن کاملUsing Satellite Error Modeling to Improve GPM-Level 3 Rainfall Estimates over the Central Amazon Region
This study aims to assess the characteristics and uncertainty of Integrated Multisatellite Retrievals for Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) (IMERG) Level 3 rainfall estimates and to improve those estimates using an error model over the central Amazon region. The S-band Amazon Protection National System (SIPAM) radar is used as reference and the Precipitation Uncertainties for Satellite Hyd...
