Forest Ecological Intensification
Trends in Plant Science, 2019Ecological intensification aims to counter-balance the negative impacts of agriculture intensification by promoting management interventions that maximize ecosystem services. However, the application of these principles to forestry is still pending. It is time for forestry to benefit from actively researching and implementing management policies based ...

Functional Ecology of Forest Disease
Annual Review of Phytopathology, 2020Global change is pressing forest pathologists to solve increasingly complex problems. We argue that understanding interactive effects between forest pathogens and global warming, globalization, and land-use changes may benefit from a functional ecology mindset.

Ecology of invasive forest pathogens
Biological Invasions, 2017Invasive forest pathogens are a major threat to forests worldwide, causing increasing damage. The knowledge of both the specific traits underlying the capacity of a pathogen to become invasive, and the attributes predisposing an environment to invasion are to be thoroughly understood in order to deal with forest invasions.

Landscape ecology of boreal forests
Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 1992It is becoming increasingly clear that densities and dynamics of various organisms often cannot be understood from the processes occurring within separate habitat patches. Effects from surrounding areas also have to be considered; a landscape perspective has to be employed.

Forests have long been managed for timber production, but more recently have started to be appreciated for the many other benefits they provide to humankind, including serving as the largest terrestrial storehouse of carbon. This article outlines some key questions related to the biogeochemical functioning of forest ecosystems that have been answered ...

Silviculture and Forest Ecology
Journal of Forestry, 2011Abstract 2Over the past several decades, federal incentive programs have encouraged the restoration of bottomland forests throughout the West Gulf Coastal Plain (WGCP) and the Lower Mississippi Alluvial Valley (LMAV). Programs such as the Conservation Reserve (CRP) and Wetlands Reserve (WRP) Programs have been marginally successful ...

Forest ecology: Conservation through closure
Nature Plants, 2015The maintenance of closed canopy conditions can delay the onset of warming-induced changes in plant community composition, according to an experimental manipulation of temperature, light and nutrient levels in a temperate forest understorey.

Grazing ecology and forest history
2000It is a widely held belief that a climax vegetation of closed forest systems covered the lowlands of Central and Western Europe before man intervened in prehistoric times to develop agriculture. If this intervention had not taken place, the forest would still be there, and if left the grassland vegetation and fields now present would revert to a ...
