A trait‐based integration of competition and abiotic tolerance underlies plant success

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Competitive effect and abiotic tolerance show positive associations with species' niche breadth and local dominance. Summary Understanding what determines species' ecological success is a central challenge in ecology. Competitive ability and abiotic tolerance are expected to be strong predictors of species success, yet theory predicts a trade‐off ...

The peculiarities of life-forms of turfy and tussock-forming of genus Carex L. (Cyperaceae) and Juncus L. (Juncaceae) species

Інтродукція Рослин, 2003
Characterize peculiarities of life-forms of shrubly species genus Carex L. (Cyperaceae) and Juncus L. (Juncaceae), which grow on the wetland. The peculiarities of forming hillocks are described in Juncus inflexus L.

Restored wetlands: interplay between environmental variables, aboveground and belowground plant traits, and carbon cycling

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Assessing relationships between environmental conditions, aboveground and belowground plant traits, and carbon cycling in restored wetlands (grazed and ungrazed), compared to a baseline in near‐natural wetlands in Denmark, revealed that ecosystem functions can be restored, even in cases where plant biodiversity has not recovered.

CARcinogen EXposure: CAREX

Asian Pacific Journal of Environment and Cancer, 2018
Cancer is the second common cause of death worldwide and a significant ratio of all cancers is related to occupational and living environments. On the other side, cancer prevalence could be controlled and prevented via policies to improve occupational ...

Selective seasonal foraging behavior of herbivores on a Danish island demonstrated by DNA metabarcoding

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Understanding how herbivores influence plant communities is critical for managing biodiversity and ecosystem functions, particularly in conservation areas undergoing restoration or rewilding, where free‐ranging large herbivores impact the vegetation development.

Environmental drivers of gaseous carbon fluxes in drained and rewetted Minnesota peatlands, U. S. A.

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Rewetting shows promise for mitigating carbon loss from drained peatlands. However, knowledge gaps remain in rewetting impacts on gaseous carbon fluxes and factors affecting rewetting success, especially in Minnesota and the Upper Midwest, United States, despite abundant degraded peatlands presenting restoration opportunities ...

Short‐term soil responses and site conditions to inverted mounding on peatland linear features in Alberta, Canada

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Seismic lines represent one of the most extensive and persistent anthropogenic disturbances in boreal peatlands, limiting forest regeneration and altering key ecosystem functions. Inverted mounding is increasingly applied to elevate planting microsites above shallow water tables, yet evidence on short‐ to medium‐term biophysical ...

Seed and bud banks respond differentially to seasonal flooding disturbance along a successional gradient in a river-connected floodplain wetland

Global Ecology and Conservation
Soil seed banks and belowground bud banks play crucial roles in population recruitment and vegetation succession in wetlands. Successional stages and flooding disturbance influence seed and bud bank traits but have rarely been explored in floodplain ...
