Prioritization in conservation is crucial for the development of efficient and effective decision-making policies. For many decades, the importance of some species and their habitats has been assessed and applied in conservation legislation, but bats and their diurnal roosts have ofbeen overlooked. [...]

In the Mediterranean region, wind-driven crown fires are becoming more frequent, leading to increased atmospheric pollutant emissions. This study explored how the distribution of pre-fire fuels across the crown, shrub and litter layers varies among different fuel types, and how these variations were linked with fuel consumption and fire severity for each layer to quantify and compare atmospheric pollutant emissions (CO, CO, CH and PM) in pine (Pinus halepensis) and oak (Quercus suber) forests.

Fires are a common and significant disturbance in Mediterranean forest ecosystems with a prominent role in their dynamics. The increased frequency, intensity and extent of fires due to climate change are, however, expected to exceed forests' resilience capacity. [...]

Cultius que cuiden : sembrant sostenibilitat a través de pràctiques intel·ligents

Casanovas Berenguer, Rosa (Centre de Recerca Ecològica i d'Aplicacions Forestals) ;
Peñuelas, Josep (Centre de Recerca Ecològica i d'Aplicacions Forestals)
Segons l'estudi del CREAF publicat a Nature Communications, les pràctiques optimitzades de cultius de cobertura poden ajudar-nos a assolir diversos objectius de sostenibilitat: més producció d'aliments, mitigació del canvi climàtic i estabilització del sòl -especialment en regions amb pocs recursos i vulnerables ambientalment. Según el estudio del CREAF publicado en Nature Communications, las prácticas optimizadas de cultivos de cobertura pueden ayudarnos a alcanzar múltiples objetivos de sostenibilidad -como una mayor producción de alimentos, mitigación del cambio climático y estabilización del suelo- especialmente en regiones con pocos recursos y vulnerabilidad ambiental. According to the CREAF's study published in Nature Communications, optimized cover cropping practices can help us achieve multiple sustainability goals -including enhanced food production, climate mitigation, and soil stabilization- especially in under-resourced and environmentally vulnerable regions.

While disturbances are essential for biodiversity, their escalation driven by climate change may threaten forest ecosystems. Contrasting approaches to adapt forests to disturbances-intensifying management versus encouraging natural succession towards more mature ecosystems-have sparked a debate about whether protection influences forests' vulnerability to disturbance.

Forest management aimed to maximize timber production might impact soil fungi, especially those symbiotically associated to tree roots. In this study, we analyse the temporal dynamics of soil fungi along five sampling years after tree removal in a managed Pinus sylvestris stand in northern Spain, where timber production is combined with regular mushroom harvesting.
