Climate gradients explain changes in plant community composition of the forest understorey : an extrapolation after climate warming

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used 677 existing vegetation releves, record- ed in Querco-Fagetea forests in France, Belgium and the Netherlands on the one hand, and temperature and precipitation data of 150 meteorological stations distributed throughout the study area for a correlational analysis.

Defining management rules for grasslands using weed demographic characteristics

TL;DR: The study objective was to use demographic information to adjust forage production practices to control the invasive weeds golden chervil and yellow-rattle without herbicides by defining the population dynamics traits that are directly involved in weed responses to farming practices.

Classification of some plant species according to Grime’s strategies in a Quercus cerris L. var. cerris woodland in Samsun, northern Turkey

TL;DR: Most of the plant species in both plots had secondary and tertiary strategies, and this suggests that plants were exposed to more than one pressure factor.
Journal ArticleDOI

The potential of some soil amendments to improve tree growth on metalliferous mine wastes

TL;DR: In this paper, a factorial experiment was set-up to investigate the effects of seven amendments on the substrate chemistry and the growth and leaf chemistries of alder and sycamore.

Simulating the nature of vegetation communities at the opening of the Neolithic on Achill Island, Co. Mayo, Ireland — the potential role of models of pollen dispersal and deposition

TL;DR: The results presented in this paper from a modelling approach to reconstructing earlier prehistoric landscapes clearly demonstrate likely spatial vegetation patterning which could produce pollen assemblages comparable to those in the sub-fossil record Areas such as Achill Island would have had extensive woodland cover dominated by taxa such as pine, oak and elm, a landscape substantially different from that which exists today.
