Description
Abstract
Las ramblas (ríos secos) son ecosistemas de gran relevancia en la
cuenca del Segura por la extensión que ocupan. Estos ecosistemas albergan comunidades vegetales caracterizadas por la diversidad y singularidad de especies que las componen. El objetivo de
este trabajo es analizar los rasgos biológicos que caracterizan estas comunidades y relacionarlos con su capacidad para provee
servicios ecosistémicos a la sociedad. Los resultados obtenidos indican que las comunidades vegetales de estos ecosistemas presentan rasgos biológicos claramente terrestres y xerófilos con dominancia de formas fanerófitas y caméfitas, con diversas adaptaciones a la sequía y total inexistencia de especies helófitas. Además, más del 90% de las especies estudiadas proporcionan algún
servicio ecosistémico
Dry rivers (ramblas) are ecosystems of great relevance in the Segura Basin due to the extent they occupy. These ecosystems harbour plant communities characterized by the diversity and unique ness of the species that make it up. The objective of this paper is to analyze the biological traits that characterize these communities and relate them to its capacity to provide ecosystem services to society. The results obtained indicate that the plant communities of these ecosystems present clearly terrestrial and xerophilous biological traits with a dominance of phanerophytic and camephytic forms, with various adaptations to drought and a total absence of helophyte species. Furthermore, more than 90% of the species studied provide some ecosystem service.
