the evaluation of the edge effects of forest roads on ecosystem is very useful to understand changes from forest road. with this regard, in this research the effect of main forest road construction on regeneration and biodiversity of established trees in edge of forest road was investigated at 35 m distance into forest area. an existing 10 years old road segment, with same physiographic propert...

Bale Mountains National Park is one of the protected areas in Ethiopia that holds largest area Afroalpine habitat Africa and second stand moist tropical forest. Nevertheless, human settlements, overgrazing, recurrent fire are main problems park. This study aimed to determine effects human-induced landscape change floristic composition structure The vegetation data were collected systematically ...

 Benthic invertebrates are a well-established target in environmental quality status evaluations. The AMBI (AZTI's Marine Biotic Index) was developed to determine the impacts and the quality status of soft-bottom marine benthic communities. The aim of this study was investigating multivariate pattern of benthic invertebrate community and application of AMBI (AZTI's Marine Biotic Index) for...

We investigated community structure and tree species diversity of six subtropical mountain forests in relation to 11 topographical and edaphic factors in Lower Lancang River Basin, Yunnan Province, China, based on a census of all trees with diameter at breast height≥5 cm in 45 0.06-ha plots. The forests were as follows: a river valley monsoon forest, semi-humid evergreen broad-leaved forest, mo...

Seven major ecological zones of Nigeria with modern functional apiaries were mapped and sampled in the rainy season between April 2016 October 2018 for estimating bee foraging flight range floral species diversity; collating satellite imagery data geospatial zone mapping using GPS (Garmin Etrex 20) to capture coordinates locations their attributes, climatic topographic generating zones: wetland...

In the study, International Waterbird Census (IWC) conducted in 2021 wetlands with different habitat characteristics around Dardanelles were evaluated. 3086 individuals belonging to 30 waterbird species counted Kavak Delta, 31 and 1150 Çardak Lagoon, 22 3906 Gökçeada Salt Lake, 11 289 Suvla Lake 8 84 Uzunhızırlı Pond. The highest diversity (Shannon-Wiener Indices, H: 2,473) richness (Margalef I...
