Associations between canopy openness, butterfly resources, butterfly richness and abundance along forest trails in planted and natural forests

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2017
Increasing the biodiversity in plantations of trees is an important issue because plantations have replaced many natural and semi-natural ecosystems worldwide.

Variations in habitat metrics along plantation chronosequences: contrasting tree plantations in subtropical forest and grassland

open access: yesMetsanduslikud Uurimused, 2022
The increasing demand for raw materials favours habitat conversion into tree plantations in different biomes over the world. In Argentina, fast-growing plantations occur in physiognomically contrasting biomes, such as the subtropical forest and grassland.

Effect of Land Use History on Biodiversity of Pine Plantations

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
The growing replacement of native vegetation by forest plantations is considered a global threat to biodiversity. Significant variation in biotic communities among stands with similar management suggests that previous land use might have an effect on the

Disruptant Effects of 4-Allylanisole and Verbenone on \u3ci\u3eTomicus Piniperda\u3c/i\u3e (Coleoptera: Scolytidae) Response to Baited Traps and Logs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We assessed the inhibitory effects of the host compound 4-allylanisole (release rates = 1 and 2 mg/d in 1994, and 1 and 10 mg/d in 2001) on the response of the pine shoot beetle, Tomicus piniperda (L.), adults to funnel traps baited with the attractant ...

Effects of eucalyptus plantations on avian and herb species richness and composition in North-West Spain

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation, 2019
Eucalyptus plantations have been established in many areas of the world due to their fast growth and profitability. In NW Spain, Eucalyptus plantations now cover a larger area than native forests. Although Eucalyptus plantations have been shown to affect

Invasive plant species in the forest parks of Yekaterinburg [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Invasive species-introduced species, spontaneously settled outside their natural range, and successfully adapted to the new growing conditions. The problem of invasive species penetration, both herbaceous and woody, has long been a concern of scientists,

Current Landscape: Use of Supercritical CO2 in the Wood Industry

open access: yesAdvanced Energy and Sustainability Research, EarlyView.
The application of supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) to successfully dewater as well as extract resin from wood is becoming increasingly popular due to its greener and less energy‐intensive approach. With world focus shifting to developing methods with greater efficiency while decreasing harm to the environment, scCO2 applications have begun to set ...

Structure of bird communities in eucalyptus plantations: nestedness as a pattern of species distribution

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Biology
Replacement of native habitats by tree plantations has increased dramatically in Brazil, resulting in loss of structural components for birds, such as appropriate substrates for foraging and nesting.

Forest remnants enhance wild pollinator visits to cashew flowers and mitigate pollination deficit in NE Brazil

open access: yesJournal of Pollination Ecology, 2014
Pollination deficit could cause low yields in cashew (Anacardium occidentale) and it is possible that deforestation surrounding cashew plantations may prevent effective pollinators from visiting cashew flowers and contribute to this deficit.

The critical role of natural forest as refugium for generalist species in oil palm-dominated landscapes.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
In Borneo, oil palm plantations have replaced much of natural resources, where generalist species tend to be the principal beneficiaries, due to the abundant food provided by oil palm plantations.
