Beyond the green: assessing quarry restoration success through plant and beetle communities
In assessing the effectiveness of ecological restoration actions, outcomes evaluation using a multi‐taxa approach can greatly contribute to a clearer understanding of their success/failure. Since comprehensive biodiversity assessments are rarely possible,

Assessing recovery of alpine spoil heaps by vascular plant, bryophyte, and lichen functional traits
Functional traits are linked to ecosystem processes and services and therefore relevant in recovery assessment. However, traits of bryophytes and lichens, important components of many ecosystems, have received less attention than those of vascular plants.

Can species richness be maintained in logged endemic Acacia Heterophylla forests (Reunion Island, Indian Ocean) ? [PDF]
It is assumed that forests can serve multiple uses, including wood production and maintenance of high biodiversity level. We tested this hypothesis by studying eradication methods of invasive plants currently implemented in exploited endemic Acacia ...

Lemur food plants as options for forest restoration in Madagascar
The outcome of restoration plantings depends on the selection of plant species and their traits. Regeneration could be facilitated and diversified by attracting native seed dispersers into the sites to be restored. To provide a basis for the selection of

Replanting agricultural landscapes: how well do plants survive after habitat restoration?
Landscape‐scale habitat restoration has the potential to return ecosystem functions and services and mitigate the loss of native flora and fauna. However, restoration projects rarely monitor the effectiveness of restoration efforts, such as quantifying ...

Interactions of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, critical loads of nitrogen deposition, and shifts from native to invasive species in a southern California shrubland [PDF]
Anthropogenic nitrogen (N) deposition and invasive species are causing declines in global biodiversity, and both factors impact the diversity and functioning of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi.
