- Abstract:
- ... The logging quota scheme was established in 1987 to control over-harvesting and promoting forest restoration in China, and it is expected to remain in place for many years to come. But the scheme has rarely been subject to careful empirical scrutiny. In this paper, we develop and estimate an empirical model to disentangle its potential effects on different dimensions of the forest condition ...

- ... ), passive restoration via moose reduction is sufficient to restore balsam fir but birch seedling planting is the most effective for restoring birch in all canopy gap sizes. We propose that Markov models parameterized by aggregate data with simulated herbivory be used to support experimental studies and strengthen evidence for forest restoration planning. Our novel modelling approach can be used in other ...

- Abstract:
- ... The knowledge of soil indicators during forest restoration is essential for understanding the recovery of ecosystem functions such as biomass production and water regulation. Despite this importance, in most restoration programs over the world, the soil remains under‐investigated. Here, we conducted a systematic literature review in order to determine: (1) the extent to which soil indicators ...

- Abstract:
- ... Ensuring the long‐term persistence of tropical forest restoration projects is vital to maintaining carbon stocks, biodiversity, and other benefits of restored ecosystems. But our understanding of the factors that determine restoration longevity—the age that a restored ecosystem attains before being converted to another land use—is limited, and derived primarily from studies based on remote ...

- Abstract:

However, responses of wildlife to different forest restoration techniques is often uncertain and an improved understanding of wildlife activity during the early stages of forest restoration is important for restoration ...

- Abstract:

Yet, soil dynamics are still poorly assessed among restoration studies and there is a lack of knowledge on how soil is affected by forest restoration process. Here, we compile information on soil dynamics in forest restoration based on soil physical, chemical, and biological attributes in temperate and tropical forest regions ...

We analyzed the effect of tree canopy cover, dispersal syndrome, deciduousness, and taxon in facilitating natural regeneration in tropical forest restoration planting. Canopy cover had additive positive effect on natural ...

Tree species that produce resources for fauna are recommended for forest restoration plantings to attract pollinators and seed dispersers; however, information regarding the flowering and fruiting of these species during early growth stages is scarce. We evaluated the reproductive phenology of animal‐dispersed tree species widely used in Atlantic Forest restoration. We marked 16 animal‐dispersed ...

Whether the diversity of wild bees also benefits from such restoration measures in temperate forests is not well studied.

In the Brazilian Atlantic forest, the main reservoirs species, Oligoryzomys nigripes and Necromys lasiurus, are thought to increase in abundance with deforestation. Therefore, forest restoration may contribute to decrease HCPS ...
