Microclimate and matter dynamics in transition zones of forest to arable land

2019-04-01

Abstract excerpt

Human-driven fragmentation of landscapes leads to the formation of transition zones between ecosystems that are characterised by fluxes of matter, energy and information. These transition zones may offer rather inhospitable habitats that could jeopardise biodiversity. On the other hand, transition zones are also reported to be hotspots for biodiversity and even evolutionary processes.The general mechanisms and inf...
