Effects of Acacia dealbata Invasion and Removal on Soil and Vegetation in Communal Grasslands in Eastern Cape, South Africa

African Journal of Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 7, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Acacia dealbata has invaded South African grasslands, yet few studies have assessed its invasion and clearing effects on grasslands. We assessed the soil (moisture, repellency, penetration resistance, infiltration rate and hydraulic conductivity) and vegetation (diversity, composition and cover) impacts of A.

Moisture and Species Effect on Water Colour Generation in an Australian Temperate Forested Catchment

Ecohydrology, Volume 18, Issue 6, September 2025.
ABSTRACT South‐eastern Australian forested catchments supply most of Melbourne's drinking water, and discoloured water poses significant challenges for authorities because of the need for complex and costly treatment procedures. Identifying the sources and mechanisms of colour production is therefore critical.

Estimating Invasion Success by Non-Native Trees in a National Park Combining WorldView-2 Very High Resolution Satellite Data and Species Distribution Models

Diversity, 2017
Invasion by non-native tree species is an environmental and societal challenge requiring predictive tools to assess invasion dynamics. The frequent scale mismatch between such tools and on-ground conservation is currently limiting invasion management ...

Detecting and Mapping Invasive Species Across Riparian Corridors via Object Detection Approaches in UAV Imagery: An Example of Impatiens glandulifera

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 8, August 2025.
Riparian zones in the United Kingdom are diverse but prone to anthropogenic changes and invasive species like impatiens glandulifera. This study introduces a method to identify and map these flowers using a computer vision framework and UAV imagery, wrapped into an executable program called the semi‐automatic thresholding tool (SATT). Validation showed

Restoration thinning promotes resprouting and recruitment in an Australian floodplain forest

Restoration Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 5, July 2025.
Thickening of woody vegetation has degraded numerous ecosystems globally. In forests, woody thickening often follows gap‐creating disturbance that removes mature trees and promotes the dense recruitment of woody resprouts or seedlings. Restoration thinning seeks to reduce tree densities in thickened forests to hasten recovery of stand structure for ...
