  • Ecosystem engineering through aardvark (Orycteropus afer) burrowing : mechanisms and effects 
    Haussmann, N.S. (Natalie); Louw, Michelle Anne; Lewis, Simone; Nicol, Keegan J.H.; Van der Merwe, Stephni; Le Roux, Peter Christiaan (Elsevier, 2018-08)
    Burrowing mammals are often considered to be ecosystem engineers as burrowing disturbs the soil, thereby potentially changing resource availability and affecting habitat conditions for other species. After their excavation, ...

    Grazing represents the most extensive use of land worldwide. Yet its impacts on ecosystem services remain uncertain because pervasive interactions between grazing pressure, climate, soil properties, and biodiversity may ...
  • Quantifying the impact of off-road driving on root-area distribution in soils 
    Nortje, Gerhardus P.; Van Hoven, Wouter; Laker, Michiel Christiaan; Jordaan, J.C. (Joyce); Louw, Michelle Anne (Southern African Wildlife Management Association, 2016-04)
    Studies on the effects of off-road driving on soils were conducted in the Makuleke Contractual Park of the Kruger National Park. The studies were conducted on three different soils with different textures and soil ...
  • Testing for consistency in the impacts of a burrowing ecosystem engineer on soil and vegetation characteristics across biomes 
    Louw, Michelle Anne; Haussmann, N.S. (Natalie); Le Roux, Peter Christiaan (Nature Publishing Group, 2019-12-18)
    The impacts of ecosystem engineers may be expected to vary along environmental gradients. Due to some resources being more limited in arid than in mesic environments, disturbances created by burrowing mammals are expected ...
