Leaf demography and the seasonal internal cycling of nitrogen in sycamore (Acer pseudoplatanus L.) seedlings in relation to nitrogen supply [PDF]
New Phytologist, 1991 summaryThe dynamics of the seasonal internal cycling of nitrogen (N) in Acer pseudoplatanus were studied in relation to N supply and leaf demography. Trees were grown in sand culture, and throughout 1988, supplied with either 1.0 mol N m −3(Low N) or 6.0 mol N m −3(High N), labelled with 15N to 5.0 atom %, in order to precondition their growth and ...

A global meta‐analysis of non‐lethal mammal browsing control in forests
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Increasing resource demand, desire to sequester atmospheric carbon, and conservation goals are driving a need for forests to be managed more effectively in the face of numerous challenges. One such challenge is damage perpetrated by browsing mammals, which can cause substantial financial and ecological impacts.

Land birds on atolls: diversity, origin, and function
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Oceanic islands are global hotspots of avian biodiversity and endemism. Their isolation and distinct environmental conditions have uniquely shaped the evolutionary trajectories of island birds, while, in turn, land bird communities have become critical providers of ecological functions to island ecosystems.

NeoBiota, 2017 Factors that cause differential establishment among naturalized, invasive, and native species are inadequately documented, much less often quantified among different communities. We evaluated the effects of seed addition and disturbance (i.e., understory

Social cohesion in restoration landscapes: The case of Rwanda
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Ecosystem restoration is recognized as a strategy for addressing landscape degradation. In contexts where ecological degradation overlaps with the deterioration of social cohesion, restoration must also contribute to rebuilding social ties alongside restoring ecosystems.

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Conservation decisions often require navigating tensions among ecological, cultural, economic and social priorities. While debates frequently centre on single‐species outcomes, less is known about how care for landscapes may contribute to co‐stewardship.

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.American ginseng is a shade‐obligate, North American medicinal plant that is widely traded and used internationally. To meet global demand, ginseng is cultivated in forest farms in the Appalachian region of the USA and field‐based artificial shade farms in two regions: Ontario, Canada and Wisconsin, USA. We conducted social research leveraging in‐depth
