Thus, it is a suitable area for examining the effects of landforms and climate on vegetation dynamics. Vegetation changes over a three-year period (2018 to 2020) were investigated by examining the trends in the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) across the study area. First, the relationships between mean temperature, total precipitation and landforms (elevation, slope, aspect and distance from the sea) were determined by regression analysis, and their interpolated maps were created. In the second stage, the effects of the same landform characteristics and climatic factors, such as total precipitation and mean temperature, on NDVI were analysed. Regression analysis showed that the relationships between precipitation and distance from the sea, and between temperature and elevation were statistically significant. They were therefore used for prediction modelling. Changes in temperature and precipitation affected the NDVI values, but precipitation was found to be more significant than temperature. Landform differences were also responsible for changes in the NDVI values; distance from the sea was the most significant factor. The study also shows that in the drier period (2018), the elevation range where NDVI decreases is lower than during the other periods (2018 and 2020). We therefore conclude that the alpine zone can be more affected during drought periods.","PeriodicalId":49079,"journal":{"name":"Eco Mont-Journal on Protected Mountain Areas Research","volume":"91 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81810057","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Everst) National Nature Reserve were investigated, to obtain soil ecosystem information, assess local soil quality, and provide the basis for environmental protection. Twelve plots were selected for typical vegetation communities around the lake. Within each plot, soil samples were collected from depths of 0 to 25 cm. The Baermann tray method was used to extract nematodes. Overall, we acquired 2,272 nematodes belonging to 2 classes, 5 orders, 32 families and 48 genera. The nematode density was 0–413 individuals per 100 g dry soil (average 109). Bacterivores, predators and omnivores were the dominant trophic groups. The individual density and genus numbers of soil nematodes were highest in the northeast and southeast corners of the lake. For most of the area studied, soil nutrients were at a medium level and there was no human disturbance. The energy flow of the soil food web tends to be via fungus decomposition channels. The redundancy analysis shows that soil-available P, pH, alkali-hydrolytic N, and soil-available K have strong effects on the soil nematode community, whereas the soil’s total N, organic matter and water content have only minor effects. Soil-available P and pH were negatively correlated with nematode diversity. Soil nematodes showed surface aggregation; the soil food webs tend to have complex structures because of the presence of K-strategist organisms; the lakeshore ecosystem is in the late stage of succession and relatively stable. The increasing amount of soil-available P and increasing pH value corresponded to reduced biodiversity and unstable soil nematode communities. A greater diversity of nematodes were found in the Lake Paiku region in comparison to studies carried out in alpine meadows of the Chang Tang (or Northern Tibet) Grasslands.","PeriodicalId":49079,"journal":{"name":"Eco Mont-Journal on Protected Mountain Areas Research","volume":"3 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74682197","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here we provide a synthesis of the first five years of a multidisciplinary, highly standardized, long-term monitoring programme of terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems in the Austrian Hohe Tauern National Park and companion sites in northern Italy and the central Swiss Alps. The programme aims at evidencing the ecological state and trends in largely late-successional, high-eleva-tion ecosystems. We present the conceptual framework, the study design and first results. Replicated over five regions, different sites and a multitude of permanent plots, the abiotic (microclimate, physics and chemistry of soils and water bodies), biodiversity (plants, animals, microbes), and productivity data (alpine grassland, lakes, streams) provide a representative reference for future re-assessments. The wide spectrum of biological baseline data presented and their spatial and temporal variation also illustrate the degree of uncertainty associated with smaller-scale and short-term studies and the role of stochasticity in long-term biological monitoring.","PeriodicalId":49079,"journal":{"name":"Eco Mont-Journal on Protected Mountain Areas Research","volume":"15 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81109665","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In recent years, illegal hunting and\u0000trapping-related cases have increased in this area. Additionally, a\u0000hydropower project with a capacity of 410 MW is being constructed within\u0000Barekot. The present study aims to update the preliminary checklist of\u0000birds and identify the underlying threats to the bird population in this\u0000region. Bird survey was conducted in four monitoring blocks of Barekot\u0000during the late winter of 2021. Also, a series of consultation meetings\u0000and interviews with the local stakeholders were organized to collect\u0000information regarding the extant threats. This study revealed\u0000eighty-seven bird species of 10 orders and 34 families. Birds most\u0000commonly recorded from the family Muscicapidae and order Passeriformes.\u0000Among the total recorded species, two species are listed in the IUCN Red\u0000List of Nationally Vulnerable Category. Similarly, five species were\u0000listed on CITES Appendix II and one species on CITES Appendix I.\u0000Approximately 82% of total bird species were of resident type. Despite\u0000a decline in bird diversity, Barekot’s unique geographical location\u0000still makes it an important IBA in Nepal. Bird numbers have plummeted\u0000due to human intrusion and disturbance, and natural system\u0000modifications. Based on our findings, we recommend landscape-level\u0000research, on the impacts of hydropower projects, roads, poaching, and\u0000impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic. Similarly, future conservation efforts\u0000should also emphasize preventing habitat fragmentation and raising\u0000public awareness.

Poised at the start of a new period of activity, as the US reviews its strategy on its current and future engagement with MAB, it is critical to discuss the factors that have influenced the history of US involvement in the World Network of Biosphere Reserves (WNBR) and how the US will engage in the future. For the purpose of this article, the US Biosphere Network (USBN) refers to the current recently reinvigorated network of biosphere reserves in the US. As many of the USBN sites are partially or fully mountainous ecosystems, the renewed engagement of the USBN will contribute to the conservation of some of the nation’s most prized mountain landscapes. This article provides an overview of the biosphere reserve concept and of US involvement with the intergovernmental programme. We discuss challenges facing the USBN, including relevancy and inclusion, political relations with UNESCO, and perceptions of zoning. We present examples of opportunities and strategies that have been implemented by the Champlain-Adirondack Biosphere Network in a mountain region, followed by conclusions on revisioning MAB in the US and globally for the next 50 years.","PeriodicalId":49079,"journal":{"name":"Eco Mont-Journal on Protected Mountain Areas Research","volume":"33 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87133252","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
