Maintenance and restoration of grasslands, heathlands, and shrublands are high priorities for conservation due to their diversity of uncommon species and assemblages and their ongoing decline resulting from invasion by shrubs and trees. Much of the literature and management concerning openlands emphasizes burning to control woody growth, based on the interpretation that these habitats and their...

the present study was carried out in kharkeh research station, kurdestan province, western iran to investigate the effects of the change in land use on the degradation of mol-lisols, their organic carbon content, clay mineralogy and k+ status. the study area was partly under cultivation (for over 40 years) and partly preserved as rangelands. the re-sults revealed that mollisols are the dominant...

This edited volume is devoted to the examination of the implications of the inevitable changes wrought by global change on the welfare and livelihoods of tens of millions of people who live in dryland regions. Global change is more than just climate change and the ramifications of changing trade patterns (geopolitical and economic aspects), the shift to the market economy, demographic factors (...

Key evolutionary events associated with invasion success are traditionally thought to occur in the introduced, rather than the native range of species. In the invasive ant Wasmannia auropunctata, however, a shift in reproductive system has been demonstrated within the native range, from the sexual non-dominant populations of natural habitats to the clonal dominant populations of human-modified ...

wild boar is distributed throughout iran except highly arid areas. in recent years, however, population size of wild boar has increased primarily because of reduction in population size of natural predators such as leopard. conversely, changes in land-use practices and increase in foraging of livestock in natural habitats has led to reduction of food resources and consequently, has forced the s...

The Arctic Coastal Plain (ACP) of northern Alaska consists of an extremely low gradient, lake-rich landscape that is characterized by a complex network of aquatic habitats and surface features strongly influenced by permafrost dynamics. Much is unknown about the form, function, and ecological conditions in this unique hydrologic setting. Amplified climate change and landscape responses in the A...

Soils are subject to varying degrees of direct or indirect human disturbance, constituting a major global change driver. Factoring out natural from direct and indirect human influence is not always straightforward, but some human activities have clear impacts. These include land-use change, land management and land degradation (erosion, compaction, sealing and salinization). The intensity of la...

Assessment of land use changes in the previous years and prediction of these changes in the following years is an essential tool for different planning and management of natural resources. Therefore, the aim of present study is modeling of land use changes in Mehran Plain using Markov- Cellular automata Model in 2028. In order to detect land use changes in the studied area, TM and ETM+ satellit...

The Wyoming Basins Ecoregional Assessment (WBEA) area in the western United States contains a number of important land cover types, including nearly one-fourth of the sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) in North America. Although relatively unap-preciated until recent decades, the broad open landscapes dominated by sagebrush communities have received increasing attention for their ecological value and t...

during natural gas processing, water in natural gas may cause to hydrates formation in pipelines which may lead to serious damages to process equipments. given the problems raised by present of water in natural gas, glycol solvent uses to remove water.in contact of glycol with gas always an amount of btex and voc absorb along with water, which on glycol recovery process, these substances separa...
