Conceptualizing and contextualizing “large‐scale” and “scaling‐up” ecological restoration
Current restoration efforts are lagging behind the extent and pace of environmental degradation. This emphasizes the need and urgency to scale up ecological restoration. This study sought to understand the context of “large‐scale” and “scaling‐up” ecological restoration, that is, what it means, entails, where, and how it is implemented by ...

Abstract Introduction A primary goal of habitat restoration is the return of both taxonomic and functional diversity to support ecosystem resilience and functioning. This study assessed how insect functional biodiversity (focusing on beetles [Coleoptera] and ants [Formicidae]) responds to invasive pine (Pinus spp.) removal, in a Mediterranean‐type ...

Floristic variation in Sphagnum-dominated peatland communities of the Central Highlands, Victoria [PDF]
The floristic composition of Sphagnum-dominated peatlands in the Central Highlands region of Victoria was surveyed (37º 25´ S; 145º 50´ E). NMDS ordination and cluster analysis divided the peatland sites into two broad groups with altitude being the most

Abstract Introduction By focusing on the specific functional traits of species, we can better understand how ecosystems function and respond to environmental change. However, field measurements of functional traits can be time‐consuming and costly, whereas remote sensing data can serve as viable alternatives for studying biodiversity at larger scales ...
