To manage or not? Successful native tree seedling restoration despite a dense, invasive shrub, Berberis thunbergii
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Plant Ecology"
DOI: 10.1007/s11258-019-00937-w
Abstract: Invasive plant species suppress native trees through a variety of mechanisms. A non-native shrub, Berberis thunbergii, has been shown to depress native tree seedling densities in eastern North American deciduous forests, but the mechanisms remain… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.foreco.2016.12.004
Abstract: Abstract Tropical peat swamp forests (PSF) of South East Asia are biodiversity hotspots and carbon-rich ecosystems under severe degradation and threat of extinction. Almost yearly recurring fires progressively devastate clear-cut PSFs. The need for both… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.foreco.2020.118501
Abstract: Abstract Afforestation with non-native tree species is regarded as a rapid management strategy to rehabilitate degraded ecosystems. Despite the well-documented effects of non-native forest plantations (NNFPs) on plant diversity, relatively few studies have explored the… read more here.

Holocene history of ‘non-native’ trees in Ireland
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Review of Palaeobotany and Palynology"
DOI: 10.1016/j.revpalbo.2017.04.006
Abstract: Previous studies focusing on the Holocene vegetation history of Ireland have suggested that the occasional occurrence of pollen of Abies, Acer, Carpinus, Fagus, Juglans, Picea, and Tilia can be best explained by sample contamination, reworking… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41597-021-00961-4
Abstract: For non-native tree species with an origin outside of Europe a detailed compilation of enemy species including the severity of their attack is lacking up to now. We collected information on native and non-native species… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/cobi.13152
Abstract: Designing agroecosystems that are compatible with the conservation of biodiversity is a top conservation priority. However, the social variables that drive native biodiversity conservation in these systems are poorly understood. We devised a new approach… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/rec.12470
Abstract: Recent global commitments have placed forest and landscape restoration at the forefront of countries' efforts to recover ecosystem services, conserve biodiversity, and mitigate the effects of climate change. However, it needs to be asked if… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/rec.13023
Abstract: Economic development of rural people is not always feasible along with concomitant forest restoration, especially when meager reforestation incentives are oriented to poor rural people who probably are not willing to plant native species in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0192165
Abstract: The primary focus of tropical forest restoration has been the recovery of forest structure and tree taxonomic diversity, with limited attention given to genetic conservation. Populations reintroduced through restoration plantings may have low genetic diversity… read more here.
