Forest restoration: Transformative trees—Response

Science, 2019
Luedeling and colleagues argue that we have overestimated the restoration capacity in several regions of the world. Our model predicts the expected optimal tree cover from a combination of 10 environmental variables that were selected through a variable selection procedure to avoid overfitting issues.

Forest Restoration Paradigms

Journal of Sustainable Forestry, 2014
An estimated 2 billion ha of forests are degraded globally and global change suggests even greater need for forest restoration. Four forest restoration paradigms are identified and discussed: revegetation, ecological restoration, functional restoration, and forest landscape restoration.

Restoring the Forests

Foreign Affairs, 2000
Eight thousand years ago, when humans played only bit parts in the world ecosystem, trees covered two-fifths of the land. Since then, humans have grown in number while thinning and shaving the forests to cook, keep warm, grow crops, plank ships, frame houses, and make paper.

Forest Restoration

Restoring forest ecosystems and effectively conserving remnants is vital to face the global outbreak of deforestation, forest degradation, climate change, social injustice, and the biodiversity crisis. Besides scaling up forest restoration, setting reasonable goals can guide to more successful plantings that provide more ecosystem services that deliver

Restoring Temperate Forests

2006
Temperate forests cover more than 20 million km of the Earth’s surface, including forest types such as boreal conifer forests, the mixed deciduous forests of the United States, Europe, western Asia, China and Japan, and the evergreen rain forests of Chile, New Zealand, and Tasmania. In the Northern Hemisphere, dominant tree genera are typically members

Restoring Floodplain Forests

2006
Floodplain forests are unique ecosystems that are located alongside rivers and streams. These systems derive their characteristics from periodic inundations. The extent, structure, and diversity of floodplain forests have been strongly modified by human pressures acting at the catchment, reach, and local scales.

Restoring Floodplain Forests in Europe

2012
Floodplain forests are linear forest systems, occupying the lower areas of river catchments. Their boundaries correspond with the areas disturbed by river flooding and they generally have shallow water tables. The ecology of floodplain forests is closely linked to the dynamic physical processes associated with flooding.
