Published in 2017 at "Oecologia"

DOI: 10.1007/s004420000566

Abstract: Only recently have studies addressed the effect of early-colonizing vegetation on tree seedling survival and growth during secondary succession in tropical old fields, and few studies have elucidated the physiological responses of tree seedlings to… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Journal of Forestry Research"

DOI: 10.1007/s11676-018-0652-3

Abstract: Object-based classification differentiates forest gaps from canopies at large regional scale by using remote sensing data. To study the segmentation and classification processes of object-based forest gaps classification at a regional scale, we sampled a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.foreco.2021.119076

Abstract: Abstract In managed mountain forests, height growth of Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst) regeneration is a decisive factor for the gap-filling process, especially when the silvicultural goal is to provide continuous protection against natural… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Forests"

DOI: 10.3390/f15101784

Abstract: Forest gaps alter the environmental conditions of forest microclimates and significantly affect the biogeochemical cycle of forest ecosystems. This study examined how forest gaps and non-gap areas affect soil’s physical properties and eco-stoichiometric characteristics. Relevant… read more here.
