The value of saltbush revegetation for biodiversity in a highly fragmented landscape
Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.Saltbush revegetation provides limited value for faunal biodiversity. Saltbush has the lowest species richness and diversity of ants, spiders, and birds. Remnant habitats continue to provide the most important habitats for native species. Abstract Secondary salinization is a significant global issue affecting up to 1 billion hectares of land, impacting

Threatened cockatoo adapts foraging strategy to survive habitat loss from fire
Ibis, EarlyView.Fire regimes are changing across the globe as a result of human‐induced climate change. For granivorous bird species, changes in fire regimes can affect seed availability and the persistence of populations. We investigated the foraging behaviour of Glossy Black Cockatoos Calyptorhynchus lathami halmaturinus, a resource specialist, following large‐scale

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Recreational off‐highway vehicle (OHV) use can cause significant disturbance to natural areas. The use of local balsam poplar (Populus balsamifera L.) cuttings may be a solution to supply native plant material for the restoration of flood‐prone and riparian environments.

Biodiversity and its restoration in limestone quarries: a review
Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Limestone quarries impact natural areas, and they are spreading in relation to human population growth. Little is known about the impact of limestone quarries and their restoration on biodiversity. Objectives This review aims to provide an overview of how biodiversity is assessed in limestone quarries, how it impacts biodiversity,

Adaptive governance and ecological restoration: lessons from three Australian regulatory frameworks
Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Ecological restoration has gained significant international traction as a response to biodiversity loss and climate change across the globe. Regulation can be a key factor in facilitating ecological restoration and the successful recovery of ecosystems; however, regulation for ecological restoration is still emerging at both ...

Flow hydrodynamics across open channel flows with riparian zones: implications for riverbank stability [PDF]
, 2017 Riverbank vegetation is of high importance both for preserving the form (morphology) and function (ecology) of natural river systems. Revegetation of riverbanks is commonly used as a means of stream rehabilitation and management of bank instability and ...
