Photosynthetic Properties of Co-Occurring Pioneer Species on Volcanically Devastated Sites in Miyake-jima Island, Japan [PDF]
Pioneer species differing in their inherent ecological characteristics (e.g., N-fixing ability, photosynthetic pathway) can have a large impact on local ecosystems in the early stages of volcanic succession.

Roles of fire history and rewetting in peatland restoration and vegetation recovery on the Merang peat dome, South Sumatra, Indonesia [PDF]
In the restoration of drained and degraded tropical peat swamp forest (PSF) it is not well understood whether fire suppression on its own is sufficient to facilitate regeneration, or if rewetting plays a key role.

Bat assemblage and its frugivorous diet in a Eucalyptus plantation [PDF]
Habitat loss and fragmentation have enormous impacts on biodiversity and tree plantations can help alleviate these impacts. We study bat assemblage, as well as the diet of frugivorous bats in a managed Eucalyptus plantation of sustainable use in Rio ...
