The objective of this paper is to compare the economic results of sustainable natural regeneration and unsustainable management of the Ain Snoussi cork oak woodland. Two ma- nagement scenarios were simulated: under the first one, cork oaks naturally regenerate at infinite horizon whereas, in the second one, cork oak trees age until they eventually disappear and are replaced by scrubland. For this purpose, an economic analysis was conducted to indicate expenditures and revenues of the entire production cycle of cork oak forests under the two management sce- narios. The market results show that nowadays, compared to the unsustainable scenario, sustainable cork tree management has a higher total social income or discounted net value added (NVA) and a lower capital income (CIMP) at infinite horizon using a real social discount rate of 2%. The CIMP under sustainable management does remain high, however, at 8,449 Tunisian dinars (TND)/ha. In addition, the capital income distribution shows that sustainable management is more profitable for the government, with a gain of 981 TND/ha, and much less advantageous for families (a loss of 1,417 TND/ha). Therefore, a financial mecha- nism to compensate for income losses suffered by families under sustainable management is necessary.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;periodical: Cork Oak Woodlands and Cork Industry: Present, Past and Future.,</style></notes></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Galli, L.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Capurro, M.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Menta, C.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rellini, I.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Is the QBS-ar index a good tool to detect the soil quality in Mediterranean areas?

Despite the fact that cork oak is distributed over about 1.7 million hectares in the western Mediterranean Basin, information about soil biota in this particular habitat at present is scanty. This study was carried out in a cork tree wood in Bergeggi (Liguria, NW Italy), characterized by a Pluvioseasonal Oceanic Mediterranean bioclimate. The profile, texture, pH, total carbonate content, total organic carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) contents, soluble phosphorus (P) and cation exchange capacity were measured in order to characterize the soil. Soil biological quality was evaluated by studying microarthropod communities. Each month, from February 2007 to January 2008, 10 soil samples measuring 10 ? 10 ? 10 cm were collected from the wood being studied and arthropods were extracted using Berlese-Tullgren funnels. The biological quality of soil based on arthropods (QBS-ar) index, taxa abundance, Shannon diversity index (H?) and Pielou?s evenness index (J) were applied to assess soil biological quality in the cork oak being studied. A total of 29 taxonomic groups were identified. Some important groups, such as Pseudoscorpionida, Palpigradi, Miriapoda and Protura were detected every month, but only a few groups showed a clear abundance distribution trend throughout the year and globally it was impossible to define general trends. The results suggested that the condition of the soil was good, as generally observed in natural environments not subjected to significant impacts. It was also possible to demonstrate that the Mediterranean climate causes strong seasonal fluctuations in soil biota, resulting in corresponding differences in the QBS-ar index values. Therefore, the QBS-ar index could be considered to be a valid candidate for the biomonitoring of soil biodiversity in natural and anthropic soils, but in Mediterranean climates comparisons of different areas must be performed analyzing samples collected during the same period.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">From Duplicate 2 (Is the QBS-ar index a good tool to detect the soil quality in Mediterranean areas?

Due to growing land use for agriculture and urbanization, however, this forest has become fragmented into relatively small and isolated patches. The effects of this fragmentation on the diversity of wild animal communities have never been investigated despite the importance of such investigations in elaborating longterm conservation plans of the biodiversity of this forest system. In this study of a sample of 44 forest patches we assessed the relationships between species numbers of wintering, breeding and spring migrant birds and patch size, shape, isolation and vegetation structure. We found that species richnesses of the three studied bird assemblages were strongly related to local vegetation structure, namely to the diversity and abundance of trees and bushes. Patches with higher diversity and cover of trees and bushes support higher numbers of bird species. However, patch size, shape and isolation were not signiﬁcant predictors of bird richness. These results suggest that bird communities in the studied forest patches were more likely shaped by local habitat suitability rather than the amount of habitat or patch isolation. The results also demonstrate negative effects of current human pressures, namely logging, grazing and disturbance, on the diversity of bird communities in this forest system. This emphasizes the need for urgent management efforts aiming at reducing the negative impacts of forest use by humans on bird diversity in this forest system</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;publisher: Elsevier Masson SAS</style></notes></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fons, R.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Grabulosa, I.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Marchand, B.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Miquel, J.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Feliu, C.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mas-Coma, S.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mammals and fire in mediterranean ecosystems Ecological responses from the shrew Crocidura russula (Insectivora Soricidae) and the rodent Eliomys quercinus (Gliridae) in burned cork oak forest</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">VIE ET MILIEU-LIFE AND ENVIRONMENT</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cork Oak Forest</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Crocidura russula</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ELIOMYS QUERCINUS</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">fire</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">mammals</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1996</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1996///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">46</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">313 - 318</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mammals and fire in mediterranean ecosystems. Ecological responses from the shrew Crocidura russula (Insectivora - Soricidae) and the rodent Eliomys quercinus (Gliridae) in burned crock oak forest. In the present work we report the ecological responses of two small mammals to fire. During a six-year post-fire period, both species were studied by the capture-mark-recapture on a 9 ha quadrate established in a recently burned cork oak forest. The white-toothed-shrew, Crocidura russula, was the least resistant species to fire, disappearing completely during the first two years. Reappearing on the third year, the population maintained a low effective with the same fluctuation similar to that observed within the control. Although faster than on other studied mediterranean ecosystems, its allochthonous ristablishment on the burned cork oak forest, seems to be dependent on the litter reconstitution. Due to its rupicolous habits, its biotope specialization, highly favored by the presence of rocks on the capture quadrate, and some physiological apects (hibernation), the dormouse Eliomys quercinus, showed a better pre-adaptive response to the post-fire stress. The survival of a nucleus of autochtonous individuals insured, from the first year, a slow, but progressive recovery of the population.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3-4</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;pub-location: LABORATOIRE ARAGO, BP 44, 66651 BANYULS-SUR-MER CEDEX, FRANCE&lt;br/&gt;publisher: OBSERVATOIRE OCEANOLOGIQUE BANYULS</style></notes></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sánchez García, J.
