Soil Microbial Functions Indicate Persistent Agricultural Legacies and Potential Alternative States Following Restoration Plantings. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Soil microbial functions are key indicators of ecosystem recovery but can be obscured by taxonomic redundancy. Using shotgun metagenomics, we show that while overall functional diversity remains stable across land conditions, functional composition shifts persist in restored soils, particularly in relation to phosphorus metabolism.

Compositional and structural changes in soil microbial communities in response to straw mulching and plant revegetation in an abandoned artificial pasture in Northeast China

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2021
The overgrazing and overutilization of pastures can lead to serious degradation that can be restored through proper management practices. However, little is known about the dynamic changes in soil microbial communities during such restoration processes ...

Revegetation of ski runs in Serbia: Case studies of Mts. Stara Planina and Divčibare [PDF]

Archives of Biological Sciences, 2011
Revegetation is the most sustainable method of soil stabilization at ski runs. In order to establish a stable plant community, it is recommended to use native species. However, non-native species are most often used.

Overcoming barriers to seedling regeneration during forest restoration on tropical pasture land and the potential value of woody weeds

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014
Combating the legacy of deforestation on tropical biodiversity requires the conversion to forest of large areas of established pasture, where barriers to native plant regeneration include competition with pasture grasses and poor propagule supply (seed ...

The regulatory role of mine soil properties in the growth of revegetation plants in the post-mine landscape of East Kalimantan

Ecological Indicators, 2022
The growth of revegetation plants in post-mining areas is determined by the mine soil quality, which strongly depends on the physical and chemical properties of the original soil.

Spatial prioritisation of revegetation sites for dryland salinity management: an analytical framework using GIS [PDF]

, 2004
[Abstract]: To address the lack of analytical and modelling techniques in prioritising revegetation sites for dryland salinity management, a case study of the Hodgson Creek catchment in Queensland, Australia, was conducted.

Mycorrhizas and revegetation [PDF]

Microbiology Australia, 2003
Much of Australia has extremely impoverished soil. Phosphate is particularly deficient. The major difficulty in revegetating these soils after severe disturbance is that plant survival and growth is unpredictable. Mycorrhizas are associations between soilborne fungi and the roots of plants.

Collembola Communities, 20 Years After the Establishment of Distinct Revegetation Treatments in a Severely Eroded Area in South Iceland

Studia Ecologiae et Bioethicae, 2022
Several restoration methods have been developed to aid ecosystem development from highly degraded Icelandic deserts into fully vegetated functional ecosystems.

ROLE OF BAMBOO FOR REVEGETATION OF POST COAL MINING IN SOUTH SUMATERA, INDONESIA

Biovalentia: Biological Research Journal, 2021
Coal mining activities have affected the soil and vegetation conditions on the mined land. Revegetation of ex-mining land is a must to balance environmental functions.

Inoculum potential of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in iron ore tailings areas under rehabilitation [PDF]

Ciência e Agrotecnologia
Mining has long been important for Brazil’s economy, but it causes severe environmental damages. The Fundão Dam disaster in Minas Gerais, for example, harmed ecosystems and soil biota, particularly arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF).
