Roads and topography can determine patterns of land use and distribution of forest cover, particularly in tropical regions. We evaluated how road density, land use, and topography affected forest fragmentation, deforestation ...

Estimations of the carbon stored in the above-ground biomass are important from traditional, ecological and forestry to contemporary climate and land-use change perspectives. Carbon sequestration and storage is reduced by ...

Effective ecological restoration actions should be able to recover ecosystem processes that influence community development in the long term. However, there is scarce information on how landscape factors promote or accelerate ...

Exotic willows are widely spread throughout Patagonia due to their vegetative multiplication, rapid growth, and ease for establishing themselves in environments with fluctuating hydric regimes, so they most commonly overgrow ...
