DOI: 10.1002/ece3.8172
Abstract: Abstract Factors influencing grazing behavior in species‐rich grasslands have been little studied. Methodologies have mostly had a primary focus on grasslands with lower floristic diversity. We test the hypothesis that grazing behavior is influenced by… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/inp.2019.23
Abstract: Abstract Large-scale control of invasive plants can benefit strongly from reliable assessment of spatial variation in plant invasibility. With this knowledge, limited management resources can be concentrated in areas of high invasion risk. We assessed… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/avsc.12510
Abstract: Aims: Vegetation-plot sampling usually involves estimating species cover. For classifying plots to vegetation types, covers are often transformed to decrease the effect of dominant species. However, it remains unclear which transformation is optimal. We suggest… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jvs.12696
Abstract: Aims: Expert systems are increasingly popular tools for supervised classification of large datasets of vegetation-plot records, but their classification accuracy depends on the selection of proper species and species groups that can effectively discriminate vegetation… read more here.

DOI: 10.30848/pjb2021-5(22)
Abstract: The Margalla Hills falls in moist subtropical ecosystem with rich floristic diversity. Frequent field trips were conducted to record the floristic and ecological characteristics of vegetation. A total of 360 quadrats were laid down along… read more here.
