Soil-water relations in an ancient coppice woodland
Ian P. F. Cummings,H. Cook +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors linked soil hydrology and vegetation pattern in the Bialowieza forest (Poland) to five main soil-water types, i.e., transpiration, interception loss, throughfall and stemflow.
Journal ArticleDOI
Trisetum flavescens (L.) Beauv. (T. pratense Pers., Avenaflavescens L.)
TL;DR: This is a complex species and the division into the three subspecies in Flora Europaea is tentative; Subspecies splendens has been recorded from southern Italy, Sicily, Sardinia and the southern part of the Balkan peninsula, whilst subspecies purpurascens is recorded from the Carpathians and the Alps.
Dissertation
Late Holocene vegetation change, climate deterioration and human response in the Strath of Kildonan, Sutherland, Scotland : an investigation into the theory of settlement discontinuity during the later Bronze Age
TL;DR: Using complementary methods of palaeoecological reconstruction (pollen, microscopic charcoal, organic content, peat humification and tephrochronology) integrated with a critical and contrastive re-evaluation of archaeological data, the first to test the hypothesis that marginal, upland settlements were abandoned because of 'catastrophic' climatic or environmental changes during the Later Bronze Age (ca. 1200 BC) as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Potential of arbuscular mycorrhizae and tall fescue in remediation of soils polluted with zinc
TL;DR: Investigation of efficiency of tall fescue inoculated with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi to remediate soils polluted with zinc found that root Zn concentration at all levels of Zn was significantly higher in plants inoculating with R. intraradices than other treatments.
Journal ArticleDOI
To resprout or not to resprout? Modeling population dynamics of a root-sprouting monocarpic plant under various disturbance regimes
TL;DR: The results imply that, in this species, conditions of unpredictable, severe disturbance, would select for high phenotypic plasticity in life histories, whereas only regular spring disturbance would favor resprouting.
