Tropical montane forest in South Asia: Composition, structure, and dieback in relation to soils and topography

open access: yesEcosphere, 2022
We evaluated the composition, structure, and dieback of a montane forest in relation to soils and physiography of an important biogeographic region that has been sparsely studied. Our objectives were to (1) describe the forest composition and structure; (

Preliminary estimates of fallen dead wood and standing dead trees in managed and unmanaged forests in Britain [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, 1998
1.  The amount of dead wood, particularly as fallen dead wood and standing dead trees, in British forests is attracting attention from forest managers as part of their interest in increasing biodiversity within forests managed for timber. Existing levels of dead wood in managed and unmanaged forests were assessed to provide a basis for what might be ...

Impacts of harvesting intensity on carbon allocation to species, size classes and pools in mangrove forests, and the relationships with stand structural attributes

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2023
Mangroves are vital ecosystems that help mitigate climate change and natural hazards, despite representing only 0.5% of the world's coastlines. Recent studies have provided empirical evidence of the ongoing over-exploitation of mangrove forests in West ...
