Acidification, nitrogen deposition and rapid vegetational change in a small valley mire in Yorkshire

TL;DR: In this article, permanent quadrats were used to study the changes in vegetation and environment at Askham Bog, a small valley mire near York, UK, over a period of 13 years by resurveying sites recorded in 1978 and by studying permanent quadrat.
Journal ArticleDOI

Responses of the biennial forest herb Alliaria petiolata to variation in population density, nutrient addition and light availability

TL;DR: It is indicated that although density and site fertility may play important roles in Alliaria invasion and establishment, light availability may be the most important factor affecting subsequent growth and proliferation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-term impacts of extensification of grassland management on biodiversity and productivity in upland areas. A review

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present results from a range of grassland extensification experiments across Europe, mainly within the European Union, over the past 30 years that quantify the impacts on soil, plant and animal components of the system.
Journal Article

Ancient forest plant species in Western Belgium: A species list and possible ecological mechanisms

TL;DR: It is suggested that the main factor inhibiting the colonization of newly established forests is the high soil phosphate level, characteristic for former arable land, obstructing the development of ancient forest plants.
Journal ArticleDOI

The dispersal characteristics of the invasive plant Mimulus guttatus and the ecological significance of increased occurrence of high-flow events

TL;DR: Predicting the response of riparian invasive species to environmental change requires not only an understanding of the role of climate in plant demography but also the impact of changes in hydrology on rates of spread.
