Positive relationships among aboveground biomass, tree species diversity, and urban greening management in tropical coastal city of Haikou. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2021 We investigated the relationship between tree species diversity and aboveground biomass using multiple regression, which revealed significant relationships across all five types of land uses. Aboveground biomass in green spaces was also correlated with anthropogenic factors, especially time since urban development, or site age, annual maintenance ...

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, Volume 7, Issue 3, Page 461-474, September 2021., 2021 Fruit bats are globally threatened, yet important ecosystem engineers. Population monitoring is difficult, traditionally with significant error. This study shows that the number of flying‐foxes roosting in a colony can be determined by counting individuals in thermal orthomosaics either manually or using semi‐automated methods.

Non‐native palms (Arecaceae) as generators of novel ecosystems: A global assessment
Diversity and Distributions, Volume 26, Issue 11, Page 1523-1538, Novemeber 2020., 2020 Abstract Aims Novel ecosystems are self‐maintaining ecosystems that support species assemblages without historical precedent. Despite much interest and controversy around novel ecosystems, it remains poorly understood how they are generated, what their capacity to support biodiversity is and what the implications for society are. Here, we address these

Effect of Growth Regulators on Seed Germination of Archontophoenix alexandrae1
HortScience, 1979 Abstract Seed germination of Alexandra palm [Archontophoenix alexandrae (F. J. Muell,) H. Wendl & Drude] was accelerated by presoaking for 24 or 72 hours in water, and further accelerated by a 72 hour treatment with 100 or 1000 ppm, gibberellic acid (GA), but not with benzyladenine (BA) or naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA).
