DOI: 10.1016/j.geoderma.2017.01.019
Abstract: Abstract Land use intensification often results in modification in plant cover and nutrient inputs with subsequent potential effects on composition and structure of soil microbial community and fractions. The objective of this study was to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1098/rspb.2022.0909
Abstract: Ecologists often state that weak dispersers are particularly at risk from land use intensification, and that they therefore should be prioritized for conservation. We reviewed the empirical evidence, to evaluate whether this idea should be… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/gcb.16720
Abstract: Land-use and land-cover transitions can affect biodiversity and ecosystem functioning in a myriad of ways, including how energy is transferred within food-webs. Size spectra (i.e. relationships between body size and biomass or abundance) provide a… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/land10030249
Abstract: The intensified use of cultivated land is essential for optimizing crop planting practices and protecting food security. This study employed a telecoupling framework to evaluate the cultivated land use intensification rates in typical Chinese villages… read more here.
