Without grazing, productivity increased in a sigmoid way with mean annual precipitation. Grazing reduced productivity more strongly the drier the landscape. At a point just under the stocking capacity of the vegetation, productivity declined precipitously with more intense grazing due to a lack of seed production of annuals.

We compared the temporal trends of ground floor vegetation in permanent plots with moderate (7-13 kg/ha/yr) and lower bulk N deposition (4-6 kg/ha/yr) in southern Sweden during 1982-1998. We examined whether trends differed between growth forms (vascular plants and bryophytes) and vegetation types (three types of coniferous forest, deciduous forest, and bog). Trends of site-standardized cover and richness varied among growth forms, vegetation types, and deposition regions. Cover in spruce forests decreased at the same rate with both moderate and low deposition. In pine forests cover decreased faster with moderate deposition and in bogs cover decreased faster with low deposition. Cover of bryophytes in spruce forests increased at the same rate with both moderate and low deposition. In pine forests cover decreased faster with moderate deposition and in bogs and deciduous forests there was a strong non-linear increase with moderate deposition. The trend of number of vascular plants was constant with moderate and decreased with low deposition. We found no trend in the number of bryophyte species. We propose that the decrease of cover and number with low deposition was related to normal ecosystem development (increased shading), suggesting that N deposition maintained or increased the competitiveness of some species in the moderate-deposition region.

We show that these surrogates are well suited to test for complex synchronization, which makes it possible to systematically assess the reliability of synchronization analyses. We then apply the TS to study binocular fixational movements and find strong indications that the fixational movements of the left and right eye are phase synchronized.

The model explicitly considers moisture storage in the soil. I manipulated daily rainfall variability by changing the daily mean rain (DMR, rain volume on rainy days averaged across years for each day of the year) by ± 20\%. At the same time I adjusted intervals appropriately between rainy days for keeping the mean annual volume constant. In factorial combination with changing DMR I also changed MAP by ± 20\%. Results Increasing MAP generally increased water availability, establishment, and peak shoot biomass. Increasing DMR increased the time that water was continuously available to plants in the upper 15 to 30 cm of the soil (longest wet period, LWP). The effect of DMR diminished with increasing humidity of the climate. An interaction between water availability and density-dependent germination increased the establishment of seedlings in the arid region, but in the more humid regions the establishment of seedlings decreased with increasing DMR. As plants matured, competition among individuals and their productivity increased, but the size of these effects decreased with the humidity of the regions. Therefore, peak shoot biomass generally increased with increasing DMR but the effect size diminished from the semiarid to the mesic Mediterranean region. Increasing DMR reduced via LWP the annual variability of biomass in the semiarid and dry Mediterranean regions. Conclusion More rainstorms (greater DMR) increased the recharge of soil water reservoirs in more arid sites with consequences for germination, establishment, productivity, and population persistence. The order of magnitudes of DMR and MAP overlapped partially so that their combined effect is important for projections of climate change effects on annual vegetation.}, language = {en} } @book{deCarvalhoJuergensen2008, author = {de Carvalho, Jackson Marques and J{\"u}rgensen, Helmut}, title = {Document authoring environments and authoring mathematics}, series = {Preprint / Universit{\"a}t Potsdam, Institut f{\"u}r Informatik}, volume = {2008, 1}, journal = {Preprint / Universit{\"a}t Potsdam, Institut f{\"u}r Informatik}, publisher = {Univ.}, address = {Potsdam}, issn = {0946-7580}, pages = {8 S.}, year = {2008}, language = {en} } @book{GoesselOcheretnySogomonyanetal.2008, author = {Goessel, Michael and Ocheretny, Vitaly and Sogomonyan, Egor S. and Marienfeld, Daniel}, title = {New methods of concurrent checking}, series = {Frontiers in electronic testing}, volume = {42}, journal = {Frontiers in electronic testing}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Dordrecht; Heidelberg}, isbn = {978-1-402-08419-5}, doi = {10.1007/978-1-4020-8420-1}, pages = {250 S.}, year = {2008}, language = {en} } @book{Tepoyan2008, author = {Tepoyan, Liparit}, title = {The Mixed problem for a degenerate operator equation}, series = {Preprint / Universit{\"a}t Potsdam, Institut f{\"u}r Mathematik, Arbeitsgruppe Partiell}, journal = {Preprint / Universit{\"a}t Potsdam, Institut f{\"u}r Mathematik, Arbeitsgruppe Partiell}, publisher = {Univ.}, address = {Potsdam}, issn = {1437-739X}, pages = {13 S.}, year = {2008}, language = {en} } @article{Krajewski2008, author = {Krajewski, Markus}, title = {Comment: Quis custodiet necessitatem?

This well-known dilemma may be resolved by the combination of both approaches when tackling certain problems of conservation ecology. Following this idea, we present the complementary use of both an IBM and a matrix population model in a case study on grassland conservation management. First, we develop a spatially explicit IBM to simulate the long-term response of the annual plant Thlaspi perfoliatum (Brassicaceae), claspleaf pennycress, to different management schemes (annual mowing vs. infrequent rototilling) based on field experiments. In order to complement the simulation results by further analyses, we aggregate the IBM to a spatially nonexplicit deterministic matrix population model. Within the periodic environment created by management regimes, population dynamics are described by periodic products of annual transition matrices. Such periodic matrix products provide a very conclusive framework to study the responses of species to different management return intervals. Thus, using tools of matrix model analysis (e.g., loop analysis), we can both identify dormancy within the age-structured seed bank as the pivotal strategy for persistence under cyclic disturbance regimes and reveal crucial thresholds in some less certain parameters. Results of matrix model analyses are therefore successfully tested by comparing their results to the respective IBM simulations. Their implications for an enhanced scientific basis for management decisions are discussed as well as some general benefits and limitations of the use of aggregating modeling approaches in conservation.}, language = {en} } @article{ZimmermannElsenbeer2008, author = {Zimmermann, Beate and Elsenbeer, Helmut}, title = {Spatial and temporal variability of soil saturated hydraulic conductivity in gradients of disturbance}, issn = {0022-1694}, doi = {10.1016/j.jhydrol.2008.07.027}, year = {2008}, language = {en} } @article{SchiffersSchurrTielboergeretal.2008, author = {Schiffers, Katja and Schurr, Frank Martin and Tielb{\"o}rger, Katja and Urbach, Carsten and Moloney, Kirk A. and Jeltsch, Florian}, title = {Dealing with virtual aggregation : a new index for analysing heterogeneous point patterns}, issn = {0906-7590}, doi = {10.1111/j.0906-7590.2008.05374.x}, year = {2008}, language = {en} } @article{HigginsFloresSchurr2008, author = {Higgins, Steven I. and Flores, Olivier and Schurr, Frank Martin}, title = {Costs of persistence and the spread of competing seeders and sprouters}, issn = {0022-0477}, doi = {10.1111/j.1365-2745.2008.01391.x}, year = {2008}, language = {en} } @article{KleinpeterBoelkeFrank2008, author = {Kleinpeter, Erich and B{\"o}lke, Ute and Frank, Andrea}, title = {Polar substituent effect of the ester group on conformational equilibria of O-mono-substituted cyclohexanes{\`u}the para-substituent effect in cyclohexyl benzoates}, doi = {10.1016/j.tet.2008.07.024}, year = {2008}, abstract = {Together with the nonsubstituted reference compound, para-methoxy- and para-nitro cyclohexyl benzoates have been synthesized and their conformational equilibria studied by low temperature NMR spectroscopy and theoretical DFT calculations.

Large female insects usually have high potential fecundity. Therefore selection should favour an increase in body size given that these females get opportunities to realize their potential advantage by maturing and laying more eggs. However, ectotherm physiology is strongly temperature-dependent, and activities are carried out sufficiently only within certain temperature ranges. Thus it remains unclear if the fecundity advantage of a large size is fully realized in natural environments, where thermal conditions are limiting. * 2. Insect fecundity might be limited by temperature at two levels; first eggs need to mature, and then the female needs time for strategic ovipositing of the egg. Since a female cannot foresee the number of oviposition opportunities that she will encounter on a given day, the optimal rate of egg maturation will be governed by trade-offs associated with egg- and time-limited oviposition. As females of different sizes will have different amounts of body reserves, size-dependent allocation trade-offs between the mother"s condition and her egg production might be expected. * 3. In the temperate butterfly Pararge aegeria, the time and temperature dependence of oviposition and egg maturation, and the interrelatedness of these two processes were investigated in a series of laboratory experiments, allowing a decoupling of the time budgets for the respective processes. * 4. The results show that realized fecundity of this species can be limited by both the temperature dependence of egg maturation and oviposition under certain thermal regimes. Furthermore, rates of oviposition and egg maturation seemed to have regulatory effects upon each other. Early reproductive output was correlated with short life span, indicating a cost of reproduction. Finally, large females matured more eggs than small females when deprived of oviposition opportunities. Thus, the optimal allocation of resources to egg production seems dependent on female size. * 5. This study highlights the complexity of processes underlying rates of egg maturation and oviposition in ectotherms under natural conditions. We further discuss the importance of temperature variation for egg- vs. time-limited fecundity and the consequences for the evolution of female body size in insects.}, language = {en} } @article{TiseanuGessnerKumkeetal.2008, author = {Tiseanu, Carmen and Geßner, Andre and Kumke, Michael Uwe and Gagea, Bogdan and Parvulescu, Vasile Ion and Martens, Johan}, title = {Photoluminescence spectra and dynamics of lanthanide-doped microporous materials}, doi = {10.1016/j.jlumin.2007.10.018}, year = {2008}, abstract = {A series of terbium- and europium-exchanged microporous-mesoporous zeolite Socony Mobil Five (MFI)-type materials such as Zeotile-1 and Zeogrid with varying Si/Al ratios was investigated using FTIR, PXRD, adsorption- desorption isotherms of N-2 at 77 K and time-resolved luminescence spectroscopy.

Transgenic potato plants with strongly reduced levels of PKc were generated by RNA interference gene silencing under the control of a tuber-specific promoter. Metabolite profiling showed that decreased PKc activity led to a decrease in the levels of pyruvate and some other organic acids involved in the tricarboxylic acid cycle. Flux analysis showed that this was accompanied by changes in carbon partitioning, with carbon flux being diverted from glycolysis toward starch synthesis. However, this metabolic shift was relatively small and hence did not result in enhanced starch levels in the tubers. Although total respiration rates and the ATP to ADP ratio were largely unchanged, transgenic tubers showed a strong decrease in the levels of alternative oxidase (AOX) protein and a corresponding decrease in the capacity of the alternative pathway of respiration. External feeding of pyruvate to tuber tissue or isolated mitochondria resulted in activation of the AOX pathway, both in the wild type and the PKc transgenic lines, providing direct evidence for the regulation of AOX by changes in pyruvate levels. Overall, these results provide evidence for a crucial role of PKc in the regulation of pyruvate levels as well as the level of the AOX in heterotrophic plant tissue, and furthermore reveal that these parameters are interlinked in vivo.}, language = {en} } @article{BringmannMutanyattaComarMaksimenkaetal.2008, author = {Bringmann, Gerhard and Mutanyatta-Comar, Joan and Maksimenka, Katja and Wanjohi, John M. and Heydenreich, Matthias and Brun, Reto and M{\"u}ller, Werner E.

Land-use- induced shrub encroachment in Kalahari savannah rangelands has led to fragmentation of the landscape. Mammalian carnivores are particularly vulnerable to local extinction in fragmented landscapes, but their low numbers and their often nocturnal and secretive habits make them difficult to monitor. In this study, we tested the applicability of a passive tracking method and compared two measurement methods and index calculations for monitoring small carnivores across a grazing gradient in the southern Kalahari. During the four years of monitoring in a five-year period, we used the knowledge of indigenous Khoisan Bushmen for the identification of carnivore tracks on 640 sand transects (5 m x 250 m). Our results showed that this simple and inexpensive observation method enabled detailed monitoring of 10 small carnivore species across the grazing gradient. A binary index calculated an index based on presence/absence of a species' tracks on each transect, whereas the track intrusion index used the number of track intrusions to each transect for each species in its calculations. For less common species, the two indices were similar in trend and magnitude, because the number of intrusions to each transect was typically 1 or 0. Usually, the two indices showed relatively strong correlations. However, species with patchy distributions of higher numbers presented difficulties for the binary index to monitor trends, but not for the track intrusion index.}, language = {en} } @book{BraunJageKummeretal.2008, author = {Braun, Uwe and Jage, Horst and Kummer, Volker and Zimmermann, Holger}, title = {Podosphaera cf. pruinosa on Rhus hirta in Germany}, year = {2008}, abstract = {The introduction of a new powdery mildew disease on Rhus hirta in various parts of Germany (Brandenburg, Rhine- Westphalia, Sachsen-Anhalt and Saxony) is reported. The anamorph found on this host agrees well with the North American Podosphaera pruinosa. Although the teleomorph has not yet been found in Germany and a molecular study has not yet been possible due to the lack of fresh North American material for a comparison, there is little doubt that the European outbreak of the Rhus powdery mildew disease may be referred to as Podosphaera pruinosa. Morphology, taxonomy and distribution of Podosphaera species on Rhus and other hosts of the Anacardiaceae are discussed in detail.}, language = {en} } @article{GoetheOberauerKliegl2008, author = {G{\"o}the, Katrin and Oberauer, Klaus and Kliegl, Reinhold}, title = {Age differences in dual-task performance after practice}, issn = {0882-7974}, doi = {10.1037/0882-7974.22.3.596}, year = {2008}, abstract = {This study investigated whether older adults could acquire the ability to perform 2 cognitive operations in parallel in a paradigm in which young adults had been shown to be able to do so (K.

After practice, 9 young adults were able to process the 2 tasks without dual- task costs, but none of the older adults had reached the criterion of parallel processing. The results suggest a qualitative difference between young and older adults in how they approach dual-task situations.}, language = {en} } @article{SchaeferBungNest2008, author = {Sch{\"a}fer-Bung, Boris and Nest, Mathias}, title = {Correlated dynamics of electrons with reduced 2-electron density matrices}, year = {2008}, abstract = {We present an approach to the correlated dynamics of many-electron systems. We show, that the two-electron reduced density matrix (2RDM) can provide a suitable description of the real time evolution of a system. To achieve this, the hierarchy of equations of motion must be truncated in a practical way. Also, the computational effort, given that the 2RDM is represented by products of two-electron determinants, is discussed, and numerical model calculations are presented.}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Stein2008, author = {Stein, Claudia}, title = {Biodiversity and ecosystem functioning : regional and local determinants of plant diversity in montane grasslands}, series = {PhD dissertation / Helmholtz Centre for Environmental Research , UFZ}, volume = {2008, 11}, journal = {PhD dissertation / Helmholtz Centre for Environmental Research , UFZ}, publisher = {UFZ}, address = {Leipzig}, pages = {141 S.}, year = {2008}, language = {en} } @article{JannJantz2008, author = {Jann, Werner and Jantz, Bastian}, title = {A better performance and performance management?}, year = {2008}, language = {en} }
