Predicting Understory Species Richness from Stand and Management Characteristics Using Regression Trees
Managing forests for multiple ecosystem services such as timber, carbon, and biodiversity requires information on ecosystem structure and management characteristics. National forest inventory data are increasingly being ...
Restoration of seasonal semideciduous forests in Brazil: influence of age and restoration design on forest structure
(Elsevier Science BvAmsterdamHolanda, 2004)
Alteration of the hydrologic cycle due to forest clearing and its consequences for rainforest succession
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2007-06)
Since the 19th century, 41% of the land on Chiloe´ Island (418500S, 738400W) in Chile was cleared. Following clearing and burning, much of the
converted land remains in sparse shrub cover. We hypothesized that the arrested ...
Does grazing change algal communities from grassland and pine afforested streams?: a laboratory approach
(Elsevier Gmbh, 2014-11)
Drastic changes in the composition and physiognomy of riparian vegetation, such as the conversion of grassland to forest, are expected to alter interactions among light availability, primary producers and herbivores. Our ...
Restoration ability of seasonal exclosures under different woodland degradation stages in semiarid Chaco rangelands of Argentina
(Academic Press Ltd - Elsevier Science Ltd, 2018-11)
Exclosures are widely used for rangeland restoration in semiarid woodlands. However, grass recovery could be hampered if degradation exceeded certain thresholds. In this study we assessed four years effects of seasonally ...
Two bromeliad species with contrasting functional traits partition the understory space in a South American xerophytic forest: correlative evidence of environmental control and limited dispersal
(Springer, 2014-02)
We examined the spatial distribution of two bromeliad species with contrasting functional traits in the understory of a xerophytic South American Chaco forest. Aechmea distichantha is a facultative terrestrial species with ...
Timber management with variable retention in Nothofagus pumilio forests of Southern Patagonia
(Elsevier Science, 2009-01)
Forestry practices integrating ecological and social criteria have been replacing those based only on economic values. Traditional silviculture, such as shelterwood cuts (SC), transforms uneven-aged original stands to an ...
Estudio de la vegetación nativa en plantaciones de Eucalyptus grandis (Myrtaceae) en el norte de la provincia de Corrientes, República Argentina

Thinning temporarily stimulates tree regeneration in a restored tropical forest
(2021-11-01)
When an ecosystem undergoing restoration does not follow the desired trajectory, management interventions may be warranted. Where the initial steps towards restoration include tree planting at high densities, reduction of ...
