Changes of bat species composition over altitudinal gradients on northern and southern aspects of the Soutpansberg mountain range, South Africa

Autor: Sina M. Weier, Valerie M.G. Linden, Ian Gaigher, Peter J. Taylor, Patrick J.C. White

In order to gain insight into the pattern of bat species composition over altitude and the environmental variables driving the observed pattern, we compared data from moist southern and drier northern aspects of the Soutpansberg range in northern Sou

Afromontane small mammals do not follow the hump-shaped rule: altitudinal variation in the Soutpansberg Mountains, South Africa

Altitudinal transects of biodiversity are important to understanding macro-ecological patterns. Hump-shaped altitudinal profiles in species richness are a common pattern in terrestrial small-mammal communities studied previously mostly in New World m

Stability of wooded patches in a South African nutrient-poor grassland: do nutrients, fire or herbivores limit their expansion?

Patches of wooded vegetation in nutrient-poor grassland characteristically contain high soil moisture and nutrient availability compared with surrounding grassland. These ‘islands of fertility’ appear stable in size, suggesting that tree recruitm

Changes of bat activity, species richness, diversity and community composition over an altitudinal gradient in the Soutpansberg range, South Africa

Bats are important indicator species which can help in identifying areas where conservation efforts should be concentrated and whether these areas are affected by ongoing climate change. To elucidate factors limiting and influencing the elevational d

Effect of patches of woody vegetation on the role of fire in tropical grasslands and savannas

Autor: Thomas A. Groen, Ian Gaigher, Ignas M. A. Heitkönig, F. van Langevelde, C.P.G.M. de Groot

In tropical grasslands and savannas, fire is used to reduce woody vegetation expansion. Woody vegetation in these biomes is often patchily distributed, and micro-climatic conditions can largely vary locally with unknown consequences for fire effects.
