Hydrological connectivity influences the aquatic metacommunity structure of an Arctic delta floodplain by Ryan W. Scott, Sapna Sharma, Xiaowa Wang, Roberto Quinlan

“…We sampled macroinvertebrate communities across the longitudinal span of the Delta and used three complementary analyses (variance partitioning, elements of metacommunity structure, and fourth corner analysis) to determine the relative influence of environmental versus spatial variation, metacommunity structure across dispersal modes, and the functional metacommunity structure. …”

Benthic community structure on coral reefs exposed to intensive recreational snorkeling. by Bobbie Renfro, Nanette E Chadwick

“…The use of reefs for recreational snorkeling and diving potentially can lead to similar ecological impacts if not well-managed, but impacts of snorkeling on benthic organisms are not well understood. We quantified variation in benthic community structure along a gradient of snorkeling frequency in an intensively-visited portion of the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef. …”

Experimental Research on the Impact of Temperature on the Adhesion Characteristics of Soil-Structure Interface by Tao Qiu, Cheng Liu, Xiaochun Zhong, Yueyue Zhu

“…By comparing and analyzing the adhesion state of the soil on the surface of the structure, the influence of temperature on the adhesion characteristics is mainly reflected on the variation of the soil moisture content within the influence range of the interface, the variation of the energy required for the destruction of the adhesion interface, and the change of the location of the weakest antistripping plane induced by both before. …”

Vegetation structure and phenology primarily shape the spatiotemporal pattern of ecosystem respiration by Cenliang Zhao, Wenquan Zhu

“…Meanwhile, we quantitatively revealed that although environmental factors, such as temperature and water, were still the dominant drivers of TER (contributing ~44.15% of global TER variability), biotic factors (e.g., vegetation structure, ~25.91%) and spatiotemporal variation factors (e.g., land cover and phenology, ~29.94%) were also critical.…”
