Alterations of ecosystem nitrogen status following agricultural land abandonment in the Karst Critical Zone Observatory (KCZO), Southwest China [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2023
Background Secondary succession after agricultural land abandonment generally affects nitrogen (N) cycle processes and ecosystem N status. However, changes in soil N availability and NO3– loss potential following secondary succession are not well ...

Effects of Soil Properties and Plant Diversity on Soil Microbial Community Composition and Diversity during Secondary Succession

open access: yesForests, 2021
Soil microbial communities play an important role in maintaining the ecosystem during forest secondary succession. However, the underlying mechanisms that drive change in soil microbial community structures during secondary succession remain poorly ...

Changes in assembly processes of soil microbial communities during secondary succession in two subtropical forests

open access: yes, 2021
Soil microbes re-establish plant diversity and ecosystem functions after disturbance events. Deterministic and stochastic processes are expected to contribute to microbial community assembly during long-term ecosystem recovery.

Demographic differentiation among pioneer tree species during secondary succession of a Neotropical rainforest

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, 2021
Early pioneer species share life histories enabling them to colonize disturbed sites, but how much they differ demographically and how such differentiation determines pioneer species turnover during succession are still open questions.

The role of secondary cyclones and cyclone families for the North Atlantic storm track and clustering over western Europe [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Secondary cyclones are those that form in association with a pre‐existing primary cyclone, typically along a trailing cold front. In previously studied cases they have been shown to cause extreme damage across Europe, particularly when multiple cyclones ...

MAPPING SECONDARY FOREST SUCCESSION ON ABANDONED AGRICULTURAL LAND IN THE POLISH CARPATHIANS [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2016
Land abandonment and secondary forest succession have played a significant role in land cover changes and forest cover increase in mountain areas in Europe over the past several decades.

Soil Fungal Community Composition Correlates with Site-Specific Abiotic Factors, Tree Community Structure, and Forest Age in Regenerating Tropical Rainforests

open access: yesBiology, 2021
Successional dynamics of plants and animals during tropical forest regeneration have been thoroughly studied, while fungal compositional dynamics during tropical forest succession remain unknown, despite the crucial roles of fungi in ecological processes.

Trajectories in nitrogen availability during forest secondary succession: illustrated by foliar δ15N

open access: yesEcological Processes, 2022
Background Forest succession is an important ecological process and has been studied for more than a century. However, changes in nitrogen (N) availability during succession remain unclear as they may lead to either N saturation or N limitation. Here, we

Variations of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi following succession stages in a tropical lowland rainforest ecosystem of South China

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
IntroductionThe grasslands in the Nature Reserve of Ganshenling, in the south of Hainan Island, were first formed after deforestation disturbance before a natural restoration of shrubs and secondary forests. However, the stages of grassland and shrubs in
