Forest Return on an Abandoned Field - Secondary Succession Under Monitored Conditions [PDF]
, 2011 The secondary succession pattern observed on an arable field abandoned since 1974 in Tilio-Carpinetum habitat is described and disscussed. Results obtained during 36 years of study confirm that succession on an abandoned field leads from a typical ...

Environmental changes during secondary succession in a tropical dry forest in Mexico [PDF]
, 2011 Vegetation and environment change mutually during secondary succession, yet the idiosyncrasies of the vegetation effect on the understorey environment are poorly understood. To test whether the successional understorey environment changes predictably and

Secondary Air Pollutants and Forests — New Perspectives [PDF]
The Scientific World JOURNAL, 2007 Air pollution has been known to affect forests for over a century, and many of the mechanisms of pollutant deposition and effects have been established, at least for forest trees. Changes in air quality as a result of emission controls in Europe and North America, or as a result of rapid industrialisation in southern and eastern Asia, have highlighted ...

Forest communities in secondary high Andean forests (Azuay, Ecuador)
Natural Resources Conservation and Research, 2020 In the mountains of southern Ecuador there are areas occupied by high Andean secondary forests formed as a result of anthropogenic activities. Here we identified different secondary forest communities located above 2,900 m a.s.l., based on their floristic similarity.

Terrestrial Laser Scanning to Detect Liana Impact on Forest Structure [PDF]
, 2018 Tropical forests are currently experiencing large-scale structural changes, including an increase in liana abundance and biomass. Higher liana abundance results in reduced tree growth and increased tree mortality, possibly playing an important role in ...
