Models of Vegetation Dynamics in Semi-arid Vegetation: Application to Lowland Central Otago, New Zealand
New Zealand Journal of Ecology (1997) 21(2): 129-140 ©New Zealand Ecological Society these conceptual extremes should be seen as being endpoints of a range of possible situations, and not as discrete alternatives. It is therefore unlikely that an observed field situation would be completely described by any one of the models alone. More recently developed models use the conceptual extremes as c...
متن کاملPost-pastoral changes in composition and guilds in a semi-arid conservation area, Central Otago, New Zealand
Changes in the vegetation of Flat Top Hill, a highly modified conservation area in semi-arid Central Otago, New Zealand, are described four years after the cessation of sheep and rabbit grazing. Unusually moist weather conditions coincide with the four-year period of change in response to the cessation of grazing. Between 1993 and 1997, the average richness and diversity (H’) of species increas...
متن کاملThe Vegetation of Flat Top Hill: an Area of Semi-arid Grassland/shrubland in Central Otago, New Zealand
New Zealand Journal of Ecology (1995) 19(2): 175-194 ©New Zealand Ecological Society temperatures among the most extreme recorded in New Zealand (Maunder, 1965). The Central Otago region has a complex history of disturbance. Post-glacial forest may never have extended to the drier basins of Central Otago, and the establishment of grassland, possibly through natural fires, preceded human settlem...
متن کاملSimulation of the catchments hydrological processes in arid, semi-arid and semi-humid areas
Hydrological processes and their spatial distribution directly are relevant to climate, topography, geology, and land use in the watershed. Therefore, use of a model whit integrity and high performance for simulating the process in deferent watersheds is very important. In this study was assessment performance of semi-distributed SWAT model in simulating hydrology processes in three watersheds ...
متن کامل00554 - 9 - Arid and Semi - Arid Geomorphology
The world’s arid lands are some of the most beautiful landscapes on Earth, and their paucity of vegetation often makes it possible to see landforms and structures with great clarity (Figure 1.1). In addition, they have many characteristics both in terms of landforms and geomorphological processes that render them different from other major environments (see, for example, Laity, 2008; Parsons an...
