Peat Swamp Forest Types and Their Regeneration in Giam Siak Kecil-Bukit Batu Biosphere Reserve, Riau, East Sumatra, Indonesia [PDF]

open access: yesMires and Peat, 2012
Although the ecology of tropical peat swamp forests is only now becoming understood, they are already under severe threat of conversion and degradation. Based on studies of the peat swamp forest of the Giam Siak Kecil–Bukit Batu Biosphere Reserve carried

Regeneration characteristics and influencing factors of woody plant on natural evergreen secondary broad-leaved forests in the subtropical, China

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation, 2023
Natural regeneration occupies an important position in forest ecosystems and is affected by various factors. Exploring natural regeneration and its influencing factors is helpful to understand the forest community dynamic.

Turnover rates of regenerated forests challenge restoration efforts in the Brazilian Atlantic forest

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2022
Natural forest regeneration is a key component of global ecosystem restoration scenarios. Regenerated forests, however, may not persist and a better understanding of the drivers of forest persistence is critical to ensure the success of restoration ...

Mapping global forest regeneration–an untapped potential to mitigate climate change and biodiversity loss

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2023
Forest regeneration can be a low-cost solution to mitigate climate change, and mapping its extent can support global goals such as the Bonn Challenge, which set a goal to put 350 million hectares of degraded forests and landscapes into restoration by ...

Agricultural fallows are the main driver of natural forest regeneration in Tanzania

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2023
Rates and drivers of natural forest regeneration are areas of uncertainty for policy, forest management and climate change mitigation. In this study, the rate of deforestation and the rate and drivers of natural regeneration are described for 56 million ...

Forests: when natural regeneration is unrealistic [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2019
Monoculture or mixed-species tree plantations could be better alternatives in highly degraded areas that are distant from native seed sources. Financial compensation for landowners who conserve carbon, water or biodiversity in regenerating forests might not match incomes from agriculture or commercial forestry.

Boreal tree regeneration after fire and fuelwood harvesting in coastal Nunatsiavut

open access: yesArctic Science, 2020
Consecutive landscape-scale disturbances are known to influence boreal forest regeneration, yet few published data exist on the compounding effects of natural and anthropogenic disturbance on regeneration in subarctic forests.

Influence of strata-specific forest structural features on the regeneration of the evergreen broad-leaved forest in Tianmu Mountain.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
The vertical stratification of the stand may lead to a high heterogeneity of microenvironment in the forest, which further influences the understory regeneration and succession of the forest.

Morpho-Physiological and Genomic Evaluation of Juglans Species Reveals Regional Maladaptation to Cold Stress

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Climate change may have unpredictable effects on the cold hardiness of woody species planted outside of their range of origin. Extreme undulations in temperatures may exacerbate susceptibility to cold stress, thereby interfering with productivity and ...

Rain‐shadow forest margins resilient to low‐severity fire and climate change but not high‐severity fire

open access: yesEcosphere, 2020
At semi‐arid forest margins, increasing climatic stress combined with disturbances like wildfire threatens to cause widespread forest loss. However, forest resilience is likely to vary over gradients of topoclimate and vegetation characteristics, and the
