The geography in the area affects the local climate of the city with the Aarhus Bay imposing a temperate effect on the low-laying valley floor where central Aarhus is located.
Climatic oscillations throughout the Quaternary had profound effects on temperate biodiversity, but the extent of Quaternary climate change was more severe in temperate regions of the northern hemisphere than in the southern hemisphere.
However, the onset of significant climatic oscillations began in the Quaternary (~1.8 million years ago to present), and these changes had particularly profound effects on temperate biodiversity [ 3- 5].
Our suggested timeline and pattern of phylogeographic events in red foxes closely resembles the scenarios described for the ecologically similar and co-distributed grey wolves and brown bears [ 8, 10, 13, 36], reinforcing that ecological and climatic factors had similar effects on temperate zone species.
Prescribed fires are a common management practice in the temperate forests of Australia, but effects on total forest carbon (C) of long-term prescribed fire regimes, involving multiple repeat fires, remain under-examined.
We believe that this new analysis gives interesting insights on the effect of the climatic context (tropical or temperate) on the reproducibility of environmental effects on gene expression.
Here, we conducted a field experiment in which simulated atmospheric N and acid deposition in a temperate forest of China, to explore their effects on soil respiration.
We reviewed and synthesized current knowledge of tree species effects on SOC stocks in temperate and boreal forests based on common garden, retrospective paired stand and retrospective single-tree studies.
We present here a large-scale evaluation of climate effects on the productivity of three temperate tree species.
Detailed studies from the temperate zones on several species report mainly positive effects on insect fitness and distribution range [31], [19], [22], [32].
