The Garry Oak Ecosystems Recovery Team ( GOERT ), a partnership of a number of governmental and non-governmental agencies that comprise 22 individuals, was established in 1999 after the delegates of the First International Garry Oak Ecosystem Symposium met in Victoria and declared the ecosystem endangered.

Ecosystems are dynamic entities — invariably, they are subject to periodic disturbances and are in the process of recovering from some past disturbance.

Ecosystems engineers, such as earthworms, modify their environment and create habitat for other smaller organisms.

Ecosystems may experience predominantly one of these fire regimes, or a mix of all three.

* Pelagic Ecosystems Department, which studies the ecology of plankton with regard to sea ice and sea shelf systems.

Ecosystems are complex adaptive systems where the interaction of life processes form self-organizing patterns across different scales of time and space.

Ecosystems in similar environments that are located in different parts of the world can end up doing things very differently simply because they have different pools of species present.

Ecosystems are no different than other bodies economically except insofar as they are far less replaceable than typical labour or commodities.

Ecosystems are composed of dynamically interacting parts including organisms, the communities they make up, and the non-living components of their environment.

Ecosystems maintain biophysical feedback mechanisms that modulate metabolic rates and evolutionary dynamics between living ( biotic ) and nonliving ( abiotic ) components of the planet.

Ecosystems sustain life-supporting functions and produce natural capital through the regulation of continental climates, global biogeochemical cycles, water filtration, soils, food, fibres, medicines, erosion control, and many other natural features of scientific, historical, economic, or intrinsic value.

Ecosystems, for example, contain populations of individuals that aggregate into distinct ecological communities.

Ecosystems are habitats within biomes that form an integrated whole and a dynamically responsive system having both physical and biological complexes.

Ecosystems are broadly categorized as terrestrial, freshwater, atmospheric, or marine.

Ecosystems are controlled both by external and internal factors.

Ecosystems provide a variety of goods and services upon which people depend ; the principles of ecosystem management suggest that rather than managing individual species, natural resources should be managed at the level of the ecosystem itself.

Ecosystems are controlled both by external and internal factors.

Ecosystems continually exchange energy and carbon with the wider environment ; mineral nutrients, on the other hand, are mostly cycled back and forth between plants, animals, microbes and the soil.

Ecosystems are composed of a variety of abiotic and biotic components that function in an interrelated way.

For instance, his late essay, " The Succession of Forest Trees ," shows that he used experimentation and analysis to explain how forests regenerate after fire or human destruction, through dispersal by seed-bearing winds or animals.

It will be depleted after each Backstep, and it will take seven days for the fuel to regenerate to an amount necessary to charge the reactor up to 100 percent ( see Season 3, Episode 8 – " Tracker ").

Over time it is further discovered that these bodies do not age, after a physical 25 years, and can regenerate nearly any non-fatal injury, including dismemberments and blindings.

Enamel and dentin do not regenerate after they mineralize initially.

Jarrah trees are also unusual in that they have a lignotuber, a large underground swelling which stores carbohydrates and allows young trees to regenerate after a fire.

It is also worth noting that Time Lords appear to have the ability to stay conscious for moments after events that would outright kill other lifeforms instantly, giving them the opportunity to regenerate.

For example, Random and Corwin are able to pick up a car that had become stuck on a soft shoulder and place it back on the road, and Corwin is able to regenerate his eyes after they are burned out, although it takes him almost four years.

Derived from the embryonic retinal ganglion cell, a diverticulum located in the diencephalon, the optic nerve does not regenerate after transection.

If, however, no fires regenerate an area, the trees die off after about 400 years and are replaced by other species.

Lately, aspens have an increased popularity in forestry, mostly because of their fast growth rate and ability to regenerate from sprouts, making the reforestation after harvesting much cheaper, since no planting or sowing is required.

When there is a disturbance severe enough to favour its regeneration, kauri trees regenerate en masse, producing a generation of trees of similar age after each disturbance.

It was for many years polluted and largely unused after the decline of heavy industry, but recent efforts to regenerate and re-open the canal to navigation have seen it rejuvenated.

The aim is to regenerate the town after the Buncefield explosion with a striking piece of commercial art.

Despite government-led efforts to regenerate Toxteth after the 1981 riots, few of the area's problems appeared to have improved by 1991, by which time joyriding had also become a serious problem ; on 30 October that year, a 12-year-old was killed by a speeding stolen car on Granby Street, seriously injuring a nine-year-old who died in hospital from his injuries six days later.

Like Sand pine, it is adapted to regenerate by seed after periodic forest fires.

With PRK, the corneal epithelium is removed and discarded, allowing the cells to regenerate after the surgery.

Mature trees survive fire, and can regenerate more rapidly after fire than the Douglas-firs with which they are often associated.

When entering a dark room after being in a well lit area, the eyes require time for a good number of rhodopsin to regenerate.

Two applications ten to fourteen days apart are necessary ; also, the ability of the surviving plants to regenerate after 24 days can require a second treatment four or five weeks later, and even more followups.

However, recent studies provide evidence that this may not always be the case, and that MRL mice can regenerate after heart damage.

Because sweat glands do not regenerate after treatment, the results are lasting.

The only way to know for sure if a nerve injury is in fact neurotmesis is to allow for the normal progression of nerve regeneration to take place ( nerves regenerate at a rate of approximately 2-4mm / day proximal to the lesion ) and if after that time there is still resound muscle paralysis and degeneration in these areas then it is likely to have been a neurotmesis injury.

Some red orbs also regenerate after being collected ; these can be distinguished by swirling energy surrounding them.

He entered the Army at the behest of some Party organizers, and he was put in contact with a KGB operative who provides him with an injection to keep him from receiving or transmitting AIDS ( which mutates and spreads soon after, wiping out a large percentage of the population of Earth ), enhance his memory, and periodically regenerate his body, becoming 10 years younger with each 15-year life period.
