Comparative Plant Succession among Terrestrial Biomes of the World
Karel Prach,Lawrence R. Walker +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide the first global synthesis that compares plant succession in all major terrestrial biomes and after all the major terrestrial terrestrial disturbances and provide insights on broad, generalizable patterns that go beyond site-specific studies, and present discussions on factors such as varying temporal dynamics, latitudinal differences, human-caused vs. natural disturbances, and role of invasive alien species.

Patterns of soil copper contamination and temporal changes in vegetation in the victinity of a copper rod rolling factory
TL;DR: A number of dicotyledonous species, normally considered sensitive to elevated copper levels, were found to be unaffected where such conditions had arisen after plants had established from seed.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of nitrogen fertiliser on the growth of Bromus sterilis in field boundary vegetation
TL;DR: It is suggested that short term mis-application of fertiliser to hedgerows may only have great effects on the ‘weediness’ of boundary vegetation when combined with mechanical or other disturbance (e.g. herbicides).
Journal ArticleDOI
Human response to the Holocene environmental changes in the Biržulis Lake region, NW Lithuania
TL;DR: Palaeoenvironmental studies combining 14C dating, palaeobotanical and archaeological data provide information about the human reaction to Holocene environmental changes registered in the surroundings of Biržulis Lake in northwest Lithuania as mentioned in this paper.

Submerged plant survival strategies in relation to management and environmental pressures in drainage channel habitats
TL;DR: The aim of the study was to ascertain the degree to which species survival strategy and vegetation could be related to disturbance and stress pressures on plant survival, using a multivariate approach.
