Over the past several decades, however, global forests are facing unprecedented pressure from climate change and anthropogenic disturbances, resulting in a high rate of biodiversity loss due to deforestation, fragmentation, and degradation. Determining how to maintain biodiversity is extremely urgent if we want to achieve the aims of the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The complex structure, species interaction, heterogenic environment, and regional species pool all affect the spatial and temporal patterns of forest species, but it is still unclear how these effects maintain long-term forest biodiversity as forests undergo rapid variations in habitat features under global change. This reprint includes sixteen published articles related to the dynamics of forest spatial structure, community assembly, forest recovery patterns after disturbance, spatial distribution of species diversity, effects of abiotic and biotic variables on understory species diversity, and above- and below-ground biotic interactions. These studies cover different forest types across varied spatial and temporal scales, as well as different biological groups (plants, birds and microbes). We acknowledge all authors who contributed to this reprint "Maintenance of Forest Biodiversity" of Forests. We hope this reprint can improve our understanding of the underlying mechanisms of forest biodiversity maintenance.Biology, life sciencesbicsscEcological science, the BiospherebicsscResearch & information: generalbicsscaboveground biomassacoustic indicesaltitudearbuscular mycorrhizal fungibeta diversitybiodiversity monitoringbiogeographybiomass allocationbirdscanonical correlation analysiscommunity assemblycompetitive exclusiondeciduous broad-leaved forestsdynamic changesenvironmental variablesforest managementfunctional richnessfunctional traitgap sizeGodron stabilityhabitat filteringHainan islandinfluenceinterspecific associationinterspecific competitionintra- and interspecific interactionsintraspecific competitionlitter decompositionmicroenvironmentmortality processmulti-site generalized dissimilarity modelingnatural mixed forestsnatural regenerationnet relatedness indexniche theorynonstructural carbohydratesnovel approachnutrient releaseobject-based image analysisphylogenetic signalplant diversityPLFA analysisprecipitationrecruitment processregression dominant speciesreplacementrichnessroot system characteristicsroot-soil-microbial interactionsseedling ageseedling banksoil available phosphorussoil chemical elementssoil chemical propertysoil depth layersoil microbesoil nutrientssoil pHsoil water contentsoundscape ecologyspatial distributionspatial structure parametersspecies diversityspectrogramsstand structural characteristicstand structuresubtropical evergreen broadleaved foresttemperaturethe Sankey diagramthe southern Taihang Mountainstropical monsoonal forestunderstory vegetationurban forestsβ-diversityBiology, life sciencesEcological science, the BiosphereResearch & information: generalBOOK9911053219303321Maintenance of Forest Biodiversity4525342UNINA03190nam 22006255 450 991042768590332120260810141012.03-030-36308-210.1007/978-3-030-36308-6(CKB)4100000011457807(DE-He213)978-3-030-36308-6(MiAaPQ)EBC6348985(PPN)258876468(EXLCZ)99410000001145780720200912d2020 u| 0engurnn|008mamaatxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierHandbook of Small Satellites Technology, Design, Manufacture, Applications, Economics and Regulation /edited by Joseph N. Pelton, Scott Madry1st ed. 2020.Cham :Springer International Publishing :Imprint: Springer,2020.1 online resource (476 illus., 441 illus. in color. eReference.) 3-030-36307-4 In the past decade, the field of small satellites has expanded the space industry in a powerful way. Hundreds, indeed thousands, of these innovative and highly cost-efficient satellites are now being launched from Earth to establish low-cost space systems. These smallsats are engaged in experiments and prototype testing, communications services, data relay, internet access, remote sensing, defense and security related services, and more. Some of these systems are quite small and are simple student experiments, while others in commercial constellations are employing state-of-the-art technologies to deliver fast and accurate services. This handbook provides a comprehensive overview of this exciting new field. It covers the technology, applications and services, design and manufacture, launch arrangements, ground systems, and economic and regulatory arrangements surrounding small satellites. The diversity of approach in recent years has allowed for rapid innovation and economic breakthroughs to proceed at a pace that seems only to be speeding up. In this reference work, readers will find information pertaining to all aspects of the small satellite industry, written by a host of international experts in the field.Solar systemAerospace engineeringAstronauticsTelecommunicationEnvironmental monitoringSpace PhysicsAerospace Technology and AstronauticsCommunications Engineering, NetworksEnvironmental MonitoringSolar system.Aerospace engineering.Astronautics.Telecommunication.Environmental monitoring.Space Physics.Aerospace Technology and Astronautics.Communications Engineering, Networks.Environmental Monitoring.629.46629.46Pelton Joseph N.Madry ScottMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910427685903321Handbook of small satellites1983067UNINA
