Ecophysiological variables influencing Aleppo pine seed and cone production: a review [PDF]
Tree Physiology, 2014 The most interesting factors associated with seed and cone production of Aleppo pine were largely reviewed to identify broad patterns and potential effectiveness of reforestation efforts and planning. Aleppo pine cone production and seed yields are relatively variable, with differences between spatial and temporal influences.

Spatial Dynamics and Lifespan of Adult Cicadas After Fire and Logging: A Radiotracking Study
Integrative Zoology, Volume 21, Issue 2, Page 359-370, March 2026.This study investigates the effects of wildfire and post‐fire salvage logging on the survival, spatial behavior, and habitat selection of Lyristes plebejus cicadas in Mediterranean pine forests. A total of 63 cicadas were captured, tagged with radio transmitters, and released in three disturbance contexts: burnt‐logged, burnt‐unlogged, and unburnt ...

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 283-300, February 2026.Abstract The Industrial Revolution triggered rural abandonment in Europe and had a profound impact on land configuration and ecosystem dynamics, mainly the growth of forests at the expense of open agricultural habitats. However, rural abandonment has been asynchronous in space and time, depending on regional socio‐economic dynamics.

Soil microbiological properties and enzymatic activities of long-term post-fire recovery in dry and semiarid Aleppo pine (Pinus halepensis M.) forest stands [PDF]
Solid Earth, 2015 Wildfires affecting forest ecosystems and post-fire silvicultural treatments may cause considerable changes in soil properties. The capacity of different microbial groups to recolonise soil after disturbances is crucial for proper soil functioning.

Forest Reburns Are Integral to Southern Europe's Disturbance Regimes
Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 2, February 2026.ABSTRACT Aim Fire disturbances are integral to fire‐prone landscapes of southern Europe. While evidence of changing fire frequency has been documented, the dynamics of forest reburns—defined as previously burned areas that ignite again within intervals shorter than the historical range with which forests ecologically evolved—remain largely unexplored ...

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 36, Issue 18, Page 6310-6327, December 2025.ABSTRACT An investigation was made into the efficiency of conservation agriculture implementation in Siliana governorate, northeast Tunisia, through a spatial cost–benefit analysis using the Desertification Mitigation Cost‐Effectiveness modeling approach (DESMICE).

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 12, December 2025.ABSTRACT Aim Studies assessing changes in vegetation with climate change have not separated atmospheric and water shortage stresses, although they drive different vegetation patterns in relation to continentality, water balance and bedrock types. We aim to assess how these two stresses will likely impact forest communities.

iForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry, 2017 In a climate change scenario, Mediterranean forest species such as pines may be endangered by rising temperatures and reduced precipitation, thus calling for studies on the transpiration and water balance in pines.

Structure and Management of Aleppo Pine Forests
, 2007 The authors analyze the most prevalent structural types in Aleppo pine (Pinus halepensis Mill.) forests on the Upper Ionian Coast in the Province of Cosenza in order to evaluate the evolutionary dynamics resulting from silvicultural treatments and the forest fires that plague this area.
