Mulching does not improve seedling survival or growth during early forest restoration
Abstract Introduction Weed control is one of the main operational challenges and cost components of tropical forest restoration in former pasturelands. Physical barriers (mulches) have been proposed as an alternative to conventional ring weeding because they can suppress competing vegetation while potentially improving the soil microenvironment ...

Ambition without alignment: Pollinators in the EU Nature Restoration Law
Abstract Pollinators are essential for life on Earth. They enable the reproduction of most flowering plants and support biodiversity as well as food systems. However, their numbers are in great decline. Research finds a continuing decrease in pollinating insects each year. This article reviews whether EU Law is fit to address this challenge.
