Peri‐urban agroforestry for climate mitigation in West Africa: Structural diversity and functional traits as key drivers of carbon storage

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Peri‐urban areas in West Africa are expanding rapidly, often with limited planning and growing exposure to climate risks. Our study shows that agroforestry systems in these landscapes, especially diverse home gardens, can store substantial amounts of carbon when they include structurally complex stands and species with traits that favor biomass ...

Les nouveaux besoins en information forestière

Sciences, Eaux & Territoires, 2002
Après avoir donné la priorité à l'intensification, notre société souhaite désormais une croissance plus qualitative. La forêt de montagne est directement concernée par ce changement de mentalité qui interpelle ses gestionnaires en leur demandant d ...

Les arbres et les forêts peuvent-ils contribuer à l’amélioration de l’environnement sonore ?

Revue Forestière Française, 2018
Dans le présent article, nous abordons le contrôle du bruit des transports terrestres, et plus particulièrement celui issu des routes. Notre objectif est de déterminer, à partir des résultats de la littérature scientifique ainsi que de notre propre ...

Steaming soil is effective in eliminating invasive alien plants (IAPs) – part I: effect of exposure method

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 2032-2039, April 2025.
As regulations on chemical pesticides become more stringent, it is likely that there will be interest in water steam as an alternative approach for soil disinfestation. This study investigated the feasibility of utilizing a soil steaming device for thermal control of selected invasive alien plants and showed a promising mortality rate for their ...

Environmental Stressors Influence Spatial Complexity in a Fluvial Macrophyte meadow

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This research investigates the nonlinear relationships between environmental stressors and the fine‐scale spatial complexity of a fluvial macrophytes meadow. The use of multivariate spatial analysis allowed us to identify two major environmental gradients (nutrients and light) and two major complexity gradients (related to abundance and fragmentation).

Bois pourri et santé des forêts : exemple du mélange épicéa (Picea abies [L.] Karst.) et mélèze (Larix decidua Mill.) en forêt subalpine de Sainte-Foy-Tarentaise (Savoie)

Revue Forestière Française
La coexistence du mélèze et de l’épicéa est interrogée à la lumière des multiples pressions que subissent les forêts subalpines. L’hypothèse énoncée par cette étude est que l’impact de la durée d’ensoleillement, de la végétation concurrente et de la ...

Parturition timing and the pre‐ and post‐partum behaviour of female moose assessed using animal‐borne video and movement‐based approaches

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Limited information on moose calving behaviour, including parturition timing, cow‐calf interactions, and pre‐ and post‐partum movement patterns hinder our ability to define calving phenology and habitat use. GPS‐collars were deployed on 89 female moose over five years, including eight collars equipped with animal‐borne video and environmental data ...

Integrating large mammalian herbivores into Dynamic Global Vegetation Models: Status and next steps

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Zoogeochemistry, the study of how animals influence elemental cycling within ecosystems, bridges the fields of zoology, ecology and biogeochemistry. Yet, most terrestrial ecosystem models, especially Dynamic Global Vegetation Models (DGVMs), remain largely plant‐centric

Profits Lost in the Haze: Evidence From Wildfire Smoke Bénéfices perdus dans la brume : données issues de la fumée des feux de forêt

Contemporary Accounting Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Whereas prior studies primarily examine how environmental shocks affect manufacturing, distribution, and supply chains, we examine a distinct and understudied channel: the effect of wildfire smoke on human capital operating from firm headquarters.
