Bridging structural and functional hydrological connectivity in ...

Inferring functional connectivity (from bare to vegetated, or within bare areas) from structural landscape features is an attractive approach to enable rapid, ...

Connectivity and Scale in Dryland Ecosystems - Oxford Academic

By combining a variety of data sources, they show how this new approach can generate a “landscape knowledge map” through nonlinear ...

We argue that the concept of connectivity explains many phenomena observed in drylands, and serves as an organizing principle to understand dryland form and ...

Connectivity and Seed Availability in Drylands - Jornada Basin LTER

An emerging framework to understand dryland dynamics describes dry-landscapes with many large, bare plant-interspaces as having a high degree of ...

Connectivity measures across scales differentially influence dryland ...

Encroachment often creates connected bare plant interspaces where wind and water erosion can redistribute resources, including sediment and ...

Diverse values of nature shape human connection to dryland ...

We developed a methodological approach for understanding human-nature connectedness across ten representative landscapes of Spanish drylands.

Ecohydrological connectivity: A unifying framework for ... - Frontiers

Grasslands and savannas in drylands have been and continue to be converted to woodlands through a phenomenon often described as woody plant encroachment.

Connectivity Dynamics in Dryland Litter Cycles - Oxford Academic

Drylands (arid and semiarid ecosystems) cover nearly half of Earth's terrestrial surface, but biogeochemical pools and processes in these ...

Connectivity-Mediated Ecohydrological Feedbacks and Regime ...

We propose that the interplay of these two interconnected ecohydrological feedbacks of opposite sign determines the vulnerability of dryland ecosystems to ...
