LANDSCAPE ENVIRONMENTAL HETEROGENEITY SHAPING TREE COMMUNITY COMPOSITION AND STRUCTURE IN RIPARIAN FORESTS by Israel Marinho Pereira, Soraya Alvarenga Botelho, Eduardo van den Berg, Eric Bastos Gorgens, Evandro Luiz Mendonça Machado, Marcio Leles Romarco de Oliveira, Luciano Cavalcante de Jesus França, Múcio Mágno de Melo Farnezi, Anne Prinscila Dias Gonzaga, Everardo Valadares de Sá Barretto Sampaio, Ary Teixeira de Oliveira Filho

“…ABSTRACT Although riparian vegetation is widely recognized for its positive impact on soil and water quality and its role in ecological conservation, there is still a gap in understanding the effect of environmental heterogeneity on tree community composition and structure in riparian landscapes. Riparian forests are ecosystems with abrupt variations in topographic, edaphic, and hydrological features, resulting in the formation of microenvironments with specific plant compositions. …”

The interaction between population age structure and policy interventions on the spread of COVID-19 by Hao Yin, Zhu Liu, Daniel M. Kammen

“…Moreover, a higher basic reproduction number amplifies the impact of an older population structure on the fatality risk of the elderly. The considerable variations in susceptibility, severity, and mobility across age groups underscore the need for targeted interventions to effectively control the spread of COVID-19 and mitigate risks in future pandemics.…”

Effects of Anthropic Structures on Morphodynamic Beach Evolution along the Gulf of Roses (Northwestern Mediterranean, Spain) by Antoni Calafat, Manel Salvador, Marta Guinau, José L. Casamor

“…Changes in shoreline position and grain size illustrate the impact of various anthropogenic structures on morphodynamic behaviour. These structures preferentially deposit specific grain sizes and impede sediment transport, which will cause an advance in the position of the shoreline and sediment grain sizes upstream and a reverse process downstream. …”
