Oikos, EarlyView.Light is a key driver of understory plant diversity, also important for seed germination, yet its effect on forests soil seed bank diversity remains underexplored. This study assessed the impact of both light availability and spatio‐temporal heterogeneity on soil seed bank diversity.

Fire buffers drought impacts on reproduction in a resprouting Mediterranean shrub
Oikos, EarlyView.Fire and drought increasingly co‐occur, exposing plants to greater drought stress during post‐fire resprouting. Yet, the effect of this combination of disturbances on plant fitness remains poorly understood. Here, we examine how post‐fire resprouting influences reproductive success under drought conditions in the Mediterranean shrub Anthyllis ...

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Longer‐term perspectives—equivalent to the lifespans of long‐lived trees—are required to fully inform perceptions of ‘naturalness’ used in woodland conservation and management. Stand‐scale dynamics of an old growth temperate woodland are reconstructed using palaeoecological data.

The Analysis and Interpretation of Seedling Recruitment Curves [PDF]
, 1993 We derive spatially explicit population models for the interaction between a species of annual plant and a community of perennial species. The models are used to explore the conditions for persistence of the annual in both a constant and a stochastic ...

Tree planting, natural colonisation, hybrid approaches: Land manager decisions explored
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract There is a global drive to protect biodiversity and help combat climate change. In the UK, this is expressed in a number of policy initiatives and tools that include increasing tree cover as an important nature‐based solution to achieving national policy targets.

Weed problems and possibilities for their control in salix for biomass [PDF]
, 2012 Salix is a dedicated arable bioenergy crop that is presently grown on 12,000 ha in Sweden. It has probably the best environmental profile among the arable bioenergy crops grown in Sweden partly because neither fungicides nor insecticides are used in the ...

Cultivating biodiversity: When conservation in agricultural landscapes embodies farmers' values
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Efforts to conserve biodiversity in agricultural landscapes across Europe remain insufficient, as biodiversity further declines. This is sometimes ascribed to conservation policy failing to address the meanings and values that farmers attribute to the social and ecological contexts shaping their decisions influencing biodiversity.

Comparison of soil seed banks of habitats distributed along an altitudinal gradient in northern Iran
, 2013 International audienceIn this study we investigated the variations in soil seed banks along an altitudinal gradient in the Alborz mountains, Iran, covering three habitats from lower to upper altitudes: forest, forest-subalpine grassland ecotone and ...
