Forests are a unique study ecosystem that can reveal global insights into the patterns and processes associated with biological invasions via their natural diversity, as well as their diversity of anthropogenic interactions. In this chapter we focus on emblematic species groups in different forest ecosystems, giving temperate and tropical examples of ...

Crutzen (2002) assigned the term “Anthropocene” to the current human-dominated geological epoch. He concluded that mankind would remain a major environmental force in the future. Ecologists and engineers should therefore guide society toward environmentally sustainable management.

A detailed examination of observations collected in the field, or remotely, is essential for understanding the basic features and dynamics of a forest community and to identify dissimilarities between different communities. Such an analysis typically includes an assessment of forest density and competition, structure and heterogeneity, and specific ...

2016Forests are a crucial element not only of landscapes but also of human living conditions. Covering nearly a third of the earth's land surtace, they stabilize surface soil, prevent erosion and play an essential role in water resource management at the watershed and local levels. They regulate climate and improve air quality. At the same time they are an

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the results of research on the effects on forests, which was central in the Dutch Priority Programme on Acidification (DPPA). The chapter deals with the results of laboratory experiments and of the monitoring and manipulating of forest stands—including the modelling of these field results, with regional ...

The ecosphere is commonly considered to be any Space on Earth inhabited by life forms (Schaefer 1992). A priori, all organisms as a whole are a constituent part of ecosystems. With respect to their function in the ecosystem, one can distinguish between key species and accompanying species.

Real-time cinematic relighting of large, forest ecosystems remains a challenging problem, in that important global illumination effects, such as leaf transparency and inter-object light scattering, are difficult to capture, given tight timing constraints and scenes that typically contain hundreds of millions of primitives. A solution that is based on a

Tropical rain forests are found between latitudes 23° 27' North and South of the Equator. Vertical distribution varies with latitude, showing a telescoping effect as we proceed from the Equator to the Poles. Near the Equator there is a progressive reduction in the number of tree species above 1,000 metres of altitude, until the tropical forest reaches ...
