Performance and cost of applied nucleation versus high-diversity plantations for tropical forest restoration
(Elsevier B.V., 2021-07-01)
How to best restore highly diverse tropical forests to deliver an affordable and effective legacy of biodiversity remains an ecological dilemma. We investigated both vegetation recovery and financial outcomes of forest ...
Degree of intervention affects interannual and within-plot heterogeneity of seed arrival in tropical forest restoration
(2021-05-11)
In degraded tropical landscapes, lack of seed dispersal can strongly limit recovery, and restoration interventions can overcome this barrier by attracting dispersers. However, seed dispersal patterns are typically studied ...
Generalist birds promote tropical forest regeneration and increase plant diversity via rare-biased seed dispersal
(Ecological Society of America, 2016-07)
Regenerated forests now compose over half of the world's tropical forest cover and are increasingly important as providers of ecosystem services, freshwater, and biodiversity conservation. Much of the value and functionality ...
Fruit traits of pioneer trees structure seed dispersal across distances on tropical deforested landscapes: Implications for restoration
(2020-01-01)
Pioneer trees with fleshy fruits are typically planted in restoration projects to attract frugivores as a mean to increase dispersal and accelerate forest regeneration. However, differences in fruit traits of pioneer trees ...
Indicadores ecológicos no monitoramento da restauração de florestas ciliares no sul do Brasil
(Universidade Federal de Santa MariaBrasilRecursos Florestais e Engenharia FlorestalUFSMPrograma de Pós-Graduação em Engenharia FlorestalCentro de Ciências Rurais, 2021-04-12)
Monitoring through good indicators is still a challenge in evaluating the results of ecological
restoration. Functional diversity metrics can provide greater explanatory power to predict the
success of restoration and ...
Monitoramento de estratégias de nucleação para restauração ecológica no bioma Mata Atlântica, sul do Brasil
(Universidade Federal de Santa MariaBrasilEngenharia AgrícolaUFSMPrograma de Pós-Graduação em Engenharia AgrícolaCentro de Ciências Rurais, 2017-07-21)
The Atlantic Forest biome is considered one of the most important regions for biodiversity conservation in the world due to the combination of high species richness and a high number of endemic species. Ecological restoration ...
