Mycorrhizal legacy mediates seedling success following timber harvesting in Northeastern forests
Abstract Overstory trees rely on arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) or ectomycorrhizal (EcM) fungi for establishment and growth. However, we know very little about how timber harvesting affects the biotic (e.g., mycorrhizal fungi) and abiotic (e.g., nutrient availability) legacies left behind by AM and EcM trees.

Invasive plant species for compost production: Review of environmental and economic insights
Abstract Invasive plant species pose significant ecological and economic challenges, threatening biodiversity and altering soil properties, while conventional control methods are often costly and resource‐intensive. This review examines the potential of composting invasive plant biomass as a viable and sustainable alternative that aligns with circular ...

Abstract The return of grey wolves to multi‐use landscapes in North America and Europe raises concerns over accompanying risks of livestock predation. While local‐level risk factors have received attention, it is difficult to explore the role that landscape‐scale variables, such as landscape connectivity, play in driving livestock losses.
