Beyond species means - the intraspecific contribution to global wood density variation. [PDF]
Summary Wood density is central for estimating vegetation carbon storage and a plant functional trait of great ecological and evolutionary importance. However, the global extent of wood density variation is unclear, especially at the intraspecific level. We assembled the most comprehensive wood density collection to date, including 109 626 records from

Insight into the interactions between LTH‐mammals and seedling communities in forest regeneration can be instrumental in planning effective restoration efforts. We highlight the importance of landscape protection in seedling survival and the role of LTH‐mammals in promoting seedling diversity in mature forests but also in secondary successional forests.

Native palms and trees mediate drought impacts on dry neotropical pastures
Abstract Dry forests are the most threatened biome across the global tropics. Despite their massive conversion into agricultural landscapes, local farmers often retain disperse trees and palms within grazing pastures. Understanding how on‐farm tree cover in the dry neotropics impacts the environmental and productive functions of pastures is key for ...

Desarrollo de especies leñosas nativas y exóticas en cipresales patagónicos.
El crecimiento y la arquitectura de las especies leñosas que habitan los bosques inciden en la dinámica de estas comunidades. El objetivo principal de este estudio fue mejorar la comprensión de la dinámica de los cipresales patagónicos a partir del ...

Dichapetalaceae endémicas del Perú
La familia Dichapetalaceae es una adición reciente a la flora endémica peruana. Incluye plantas leñosas como árboles y lianas, siendo reconocida en la flora peruana por presentar tres géneros y 16 especies (Brako & Zarucchi, 1993).

Landscape forest cover, not edge contrast, modulates edge effects on palm diversity
Our findings demonstrate that landscape forest cover plays a critical role in modulating edge effects in plant communities in our study system, but not all woody crops systems provide buffering benefits, as cacao plantations in our study failed to soften edge effects.

Adopción de árboles nativos valiosos para la restauración ecológica y la reforestación
Con base en el problema que plantea la destrucción de las comunidades vegetales naturales y el consecuente deterioro ecológico que esto acarrea, se propone la alternativa de emplear especies de plantas leñosas nativas en la restauración ecológica, la ...

High Densities of Large Herbivores Rapidly Disrupt Ecosystem Integrity
Human‐driven increases in large herbivore populations are emerging as a widespread global change pressure on terrestrial ecosystems. Using the largest hectare‐scale herbivore density manipulation experiment conducted to date, we show that high deer densities rapidly disrupt ecosystem integrity across multiple dimensions of biodiversity and ecosystem ...
