Animal‐Mediated Dispersal and Clonal Growth Drive Prunus cerasus Invasion in Andean Temperate Forest

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Prunus cerasus reproduces by clonality and by seed dispersal and germination. P. cerasus is invading Patagonian protected areas. The relative relevance of germination and clonal reproduction changes along the time of P. cerasus arrival at a site.

Rise of the south: How Arab‐led maritime trade transformed China, 671–1371 CE

The Construction of an Environmental Villain: A Discourse Analysis of Upland Maize Farming in Thailand
