Most of the native forests in Argentina are used for livestock production with li�le sustainable silvopastoral management. Our objective here is to discuss different management strategies where natural and human capital are combined to co-produce ecosystem services (ES) provided by silvopastoral systems in native forests, interacting with different ecosystem functions and biodiversity. Also, we provide perspectives that should be analyzed in a context of socio-ecological approaches in agro-forestry landscapes. Four types of theoretical strategies are proposed (win-win, win-lose, lose-win and lose-lose), which define the social-ecological and economic thresholds that determine the provision of ES and biodiversity in the long term. The evidence of the win-lose strategy occurs when the silvopastoral systems are managed mainly to increase economic profitability through increments in forage biomass aimed to increase livestock production in the medium and long term. Deferred deforestation was presented as a typical example of lose-lose strategy in the Chaco region based on short-term management strategies by only obtaining commodities (crops or livestock products) without considering the negative interactions with other ES and loss of biodiversity. The information provided in this work should assist stakeholders and researchers to identify thresholds of economic profitability and ecological resilience in ecosystems under management. The proposed approaches provide a utilitarian vision of ecosystem services and key aspects of social-ecological resilience.","PeriodicalId":53684,"journal":{"name":"Ecologia Austral","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47438269","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A pesar de presentar una gran plasticidad ecológica, existen muy pocos antecedentes bibliográficos que describan la tolerancia del pejerrey a la salinidad en condiciones naturales. La construcción de presas para regadío, generación hidroeléctrica y consumo humano, en sinergia con la retracción glaciaria, produce gran inestabilidad en humedales ubicados aguas abajo. En las lagunas encadenadas del Curacó, en la cuenca del Desaguadero (La Pampa, Argentina), los ambientes alcanzan una salinidad elevada e, incluso, se pueden secar totalmente. En esta región, durante el período 2004-2008 hubo un incremento de los flujos de agua que modificaron sus características químicas y favorecieron el desarrollo de pejerrey. En octubre de 2009 dejó de ingresar agua al sistema y, en 2011, muchas lagunas desaparecieron. El objetivo basin (La Pampa, Argentina), the environments reach high salinity and can even dry out entirely. During the period 2004-2008, a significant increase in water flows in this region modified its chemical characteristics and favored the development of silverside. In October 2009, water stopped entering into the system and, in 2011, many lakes disappeared. The objective of this work was to analyze the survival and fishing yield of O. bonariensis in a context of environmental tolerance due to the gradual surface decrease and the increase of salts concentration in La Brava shallow lake (37°55’24’’ S - 65°55’18’’ W). Water salinity increased progressively from 7.05 to 59.3 g/L and O. bonariensis was present up to a concentration of 49.9 g/L. Fish size evidenced a virgin population with specimens up to 482 mm of LEst and 7 years of age. High catches per unit of effort (CPUE) in number and biomass were observed, with maximums of 375 fish and 204. 6 kg/night, but these did not exhibit a strong linear correlation with saline concentration. The salinity tolerance observed in O. bonariensis is higher than that reported by other authors and places this freshwater fish among the most euryhaline in the world.","PeriodicalId":53684,"journal":{"name":"Ecologia Austral","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45833041","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Plants respond to disturbances according to their physiological characteristics, their lifeform, and their ecological role or function within the community. We assessed the response, in terms of biomass and fitness, to a gradient of stocking density (measured as livestock units.year.ha -1 ) considering different successional types of species (early, intermediate and late species) from Patagonian Monte Desert. We estimated plant biomass and fitness through different variables such as plant size (diameter x height of the plant), reproductive effort (% flowering or fruiting branches) and percentage of viable seeds (seed set). We observed that browsing decreased plant biomass and fitness, both through reproductive effort and seed set. However, the successional types of species showed different seed set in response to grazing intensity. With increased stocking density, the size of early species decreased, the size of intermediate species increased and the size of late species did not show significant changes. In general, browsing negatively affected the reproductive effort of all species, and the seed set only in late specie, while early and intermediate species showed an increase in seed set. These results suggest that late species are the most affected by livestock in terms of fecundity, which might reduce their recruitment. The increase in their biomass with stocking density in intermediate species suggests a compensatory response, which could give them a short-term advantage. Tissue loss suffered by plants due to livestock consumption impacts the seed set, with possible consequences on the rate and time of seedling emergence. These results aid to understand plant population dynamics under disturbances, providing useful information to elaborate adequate conservation, sustainable management and restoration strategies for arid ecosystems.","PeriodicalId":53684,"journal":{"name":"Ecologia Austral","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45315770","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
