GLMM BACI environmental impact analysis shows coastal dune restoration reduces seed predation on an endangered plant

Restoration Ecology, 2018
Invasive plants create refuge habitat for predators that results in increased levels of seed predation on native plants. We test the effects of a large‐scale removal of the invasive plant Ammophila arenaria on the predispersal seed predation rate experienced by an endangered plant in a coastal dune ecosystem. Restoration resulted in a large and lasting

Sea Oats, Uniola paniculata

EDIS, 2018
Sea oats occur throughout Florida on beach dunes and beaches and on coastal areas west to Texas and north to Maryland. Sea oats are vital dune builders that accumulate sand and prevent erosion due to wind, waves, and large storms.

Covid lockdown and reduction of trampling on coastal dunes: a form of passive restoration for halo-psammophilous plants?

Biodiversity
Coastal embryonic dunes (habitat 2110) are highly dynamic ecosystems strongly affected by human trampling, which can alter vegetation structure, species composition, and successional trajectories. We investigated plant assemblages located along a gradient of progressive reduction in trampling disturbance in three coastal embryonic shifting dunes (EU ...

Carbon–Phosphorus Limitation Is Associated With Shifts in Microbial Life‐History Strategies Across Vegetation Restoration Modes in Alpine Sandy Land on the Tibetan Plateau

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Alpine sandy land on the Tibetan Plateau is fragile, with poorly developed soils, low nutrient availability, and weak biological resilience. Vegetation restoration is widely used to improve soil functioning, yet how microbial nutrient limitation and life‐history strategies vary among restoration modes remains unclear.
