Nucleation sites and forest recovery under high shrub competition
Abstract Forests currently face numerous stressors, raising questions about processes of forest recovery as well as the role of humans in stimulating recovery by planting trees that might not otherwise regenerate. Theoretically, planted trees can also provide a seed source for further recruitment once the planted trees become reproductive, acting as ...

We evaluate the biogeomorphological impacts of seaweed on materials commonly used in maritime built heritage restoration. After 6 months of exposure to intertidal conditions, we found no evidence of enhanced deterioration of mortar prepared using natural cement when covered with seaweed compared to uncovered mortar.

Abstract We explore the correspondence between changing palaeoenvironments, patterns of site use, and lithic technology at the rock shelter site Klein Kliphuis (South Africa) across the interval 65–55 000 years before present. This period coincides with the termination of Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 4, and the disappearance of an iconic late Pleistocene
