Seed co‐occurrence caused by shared frugivores leaves a long‐lasting signal in the spatial co‐occurrence among plants

Oikos, EarlyView.
By dispersing seeds, frugivorous animals affect spatial co‐occurrence of plants, ultimately influencing plant community dynamics. Frugivorous animals are intrinsically involved in plant community dynamics, by dispersing seeds of fleshy‐fruited plants and influencing their spatial co‐occurrence.

The interacting effects of precipitation and microhabitat on non‐native seed predation are contingent on temporal dynamics

Oikos, EarlyView.
Understanding how different drivers of global change interact to shape ecological processes remains a major challenge in ecology. Climate change is reshuffling the interactions that structure communities, with major implications for biological invasions.

Local scale variations in soil organic carbon sequestration in Lesser Himalayan coniferous and mixed forests: implications for sustainability

Journal of Ecology and Environment
Background: Soil carbon sequestration is a fundamental mechanism for mitigating climate change by capturing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Soils can store more carbon than both vegetation and the atmosphere combined.

Micropropagation of Pinus peuce

, 2012
In Pinus peuce zygotic embryo culture grown on Gresshoff and Doy (1972; GD) basal medium, 2.22 μM benzyladenine (BA) was superior in promoting adventitious bud induction during 4 weeks comparing to kinetin or BA + kinetin.

Unveiling human–wildlife interactions in the context of livestock grazing abandonment and the return of large carnivores, ungulates and vultures: A stakeholder perspective

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Pastoral practices remain a widespread economic activity across European mountain regions. However, the viability of this activity may be threatened by the recovery of large wild vertebrates associated with passive rewilding, leading to the so‐called human–wildlife conflicts.

Evaluating biomass and carbon stock responses to thinning and pruning in mature Larix principis-rupprechtii Mayr stands: a case study from Northern China

Frontiers in Forests and Global Change
Forestry management practices, such as thinning and pruning, significantly influence biomass accumulation and carbon sequestration, which are critical for climate change mitigation.

Mapping and explaining the productivity of Pinus radiata in New Zealand

, 2010
Mapping Pinus radiata productivity for New Zealand not only provides useful information for forest owners, industry stakeholders and policy managers, but also enables current and future plantations to be visualised, quantified, and planned.

Detecting social‐ecological fit in Natura 2000 governance and management: Evidence from LIFE projects focused on forest protected habitat types

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Protected areas represent complex social‐ecological systems that require governance and management approaches that valorise and enhance positive relationships between people and nature. This study analyses the alignment between social and ecological systems to detect the social‐ecological fit of projects focused on biodiversity conservation ...
