Carbon cycling in terrestrial ecosystems is a major focus of research.

Noise also is a threat to marine and terrestrial ecosystems.

The orchid family includes about 20,000 species found in almost every terrestrial ecosystem on earth.

Some terrestrial ecosystems such as forests may also depend on groundwater.

Soil carbon storage is an important function of terrestrial ecosystems.

In ecology it means an area of land, as in terrestrial ecosystem.

These bacteria may be part of a constant feedback between terrestrial ecosystems and clouds.

Wildfires are a natural part of most terrestrial ecosystems.

More directly, it often leads to the release of carbon from terrestrial ecosystems into the atmosphere.

The peat, over time, will create a terrestrial ecosystem.

Microorganisms can be used as indicators of aquatic or terrestrial ecosystem health.

Also, the composition of the atmosphere interact with the oceans and terrestrial ecosystems.

In terrestrial ecosystems, leaf litter and other organic matter gets mixed with soil.

Terrestrial ecosystems are subject to similarly adverse impacts from eutrophication.

Agriculture can be seen as a significant example which the resilience of terrestrial ecosystems should be considered.

Phosphorus is another typically limiting nutrient in many terrestrial ecosystems.

A terrestrial ecosystem is an ecosystem found only on landforms.

There is one type of extensive terrestrial ecosystem due solely to human activities and eight types that are natural ecosystems.

Since plants form the very matrix of terrestrial ecosystems, the ripple effect on other organisms would be substantial.

Terrestrial ecosystems did not suffer as much, but were severely altered by the sudden rise in temperature.

Since most terrestrial ecosystems are nitrogen-limited, nitrogen cycling is an important control on ecosystem production.

It is the coldest terrestrial ecosystem on Earth.

Metapopulation theory was first developed for terrestrial ecosystems, and subsequently applied to the marine realm.

Soils, in general, are the largest reservoirs of carbon in terrestrial ecosystems.

Trees are an important part of the terrestrial ecosystem, providing essential habitat for a community of organisms.
