Toward eco‐sustainable afforestation in arid lands: key lessons from a 23‐year‐old arboretum of native and non‐native trees in Jordan

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Afforestation is a key restoration strategy for mitigating land degradation and desertification in semiarid regions. However, evaluating the ecological impacts of tree species used for sustainable dryland restoration is crucial. For example, non‐native tree species may become invasive, with negative effects on native understory ...

Restoring off‐highway vehicle trails in flood‐prone and riparian forests using balsam poplar cuttings

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Recreational off‐highway vehicle (OHV) use can cause significant disturbance to natural areas. The use of local balsam poplar (Populus balsamifera L.) cuttings may be a solution to supply native plant material for the restoration of flood‐prone and riparian environments.

Restoring soil and tree nutrition through non‐industrial wood ash additions to sugarbushes

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Nutrient losses from forest soils caused by decades of acid deposition have affected tree growth and depleted soils of essential nutrients in eastern North America. Non‐industrial wood ash (NIWA) is rich in macronutrients and may be a potential remediation strategy to restore lost nutrients as a forest soil amendment.

Trait‐based recovery of insect functional diversity following pine removal in a shrubland biodiversity hotspot

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction A primary goal of habitat restoration is the return of both taxonomic and functional diversity to support ecosystem resilience and functioning. This study assessed how insect functional biodiversity (focusing on beetles [Coleoptera] and ants [Formicidae]) responds to invasive pine (Pinus spp.) removal, in a Mediterranean‐type ...

Estimating costs of ecological restoration across degradation scenarios in South Brazilian grasslands

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Grassland ecosystems are among the most threatened worldwide, and the Campos Sulinos—a region of subtropical grasslands in southern Brazil—experiences degradation driven by multiple factors. This study provides initial cost estimates for different restoration approaches, offering guidance for technical and budgetary planning ...
