Distribution Patterns of Invasive Buffelgrass () in Mexico Estimated with Climate Niche Models under the Current and Future Climate.

In Mexico, buffelgrass () was introduced in the middle of the 20th century. Currently, buffelgrass has become an invasive species and has colonized various ecosystems in the country. In addition to its invasive capacity, climate change is a factor that has to be taken into account when considering how to effectively manage and control this species.

Environmental Niche Dynamics of Blue Grama () Ecotypes in Northern Mexico: Genetic Structure and Implications for Restoration Management.

Understanding the genetic structure adopted by natural populations and its relation to environmental adaptation is critical for the success of restoration programs. We evaluated the genetic structure and temporal environmental niche dynamics of blue grama () in 48 populations. The genetic evaluation was performed through amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) molecular markers.

Spatial near future modeling of land use and land cover changes in the temperate forests of Mexico.

The loss of temperate forests of Mexico has continued in recent decades despite wide recognition of their importance to maintaining biodiversity. This study analyzes land use/land cover change scenarios, using satellite images from the Landsat sensor. Images corresponded to the years 1990, 2005 and 2017.
