Effect of defoliation height on regrowth of timothy and meadow fescue in the generative and vegetative phases of growth [PDF]
, 2003 Post-defoliation carbohydrate stores, leaf area and the number of active meristems are important factors affecting the subsequent regrowth of grasses. Defoliation height affects the magnitude of all these factors.

Environmental Values, 2013 Despite the obvious connections between degrowth and a range of sister concepts (such as limits to growth and sustainable development), it is important to remember what is unique about the concept. The distinguishing feature of the concept of degrowth is that it brings attention to the nature and effects of growth.

Compensating impurity effect on epitaxial regrowth rate of amorphized Si [PDF]
, 1982 The epitaxial regrowth of ion-implanted amorphous layers on Si with partly compensated doping profiles of 11B, 75As, and 31P was studied. Single implants of these impurities are found to increase the regrowth rate at 475 and 500°C.

The influence of forest regrowth, original canopy cover and tree size on saproxylic beetles associated with old oaks [PDF]
, 2000 Abandoned management has caused many sites with free-standing, large oaks (Quercus robur) to become more shaded. This study shows how forest regrowth affects beetle species associated with old oaks in south-eastern Sweden. Beetles were trapped by pitfall
