Environmental Factors and Ecological Processes in Boreal Forests
TL;DR: This paper reports on the boreal forest, a broad, circumpolar mixture of cool coniferous and deciduous tree species which covers over 14.7 million km{sup 2}, or 11%, of the earth's terrestrial surface, and suggests a possible causal relation, in which the dynamics of the forests at these latitudes regulates the atmospheric carbon concentrations.

The growth of sphagnum: methods of measurement
TL;DR: Any attempt to account for the rates of peat formation, or for peat stratigraphy and present surface features, is likely to require information on the rate of Sphagnum growth.
Life strategies of Bryophytes: a preliminary review
TL;DR: An attempt is made to compare bryophyte Ufe histories with recent models of life strategies of animals and phanerogams, highlighting the balance between sexual and asexual reproduction, the reproductive effort spent on both kinds of reproduce, the size and number of the spores, and annual production and standing crop.

Tree Seedlings on Logs in Picea-Tsuga Forests of Oregon and Washington

TL;DR: Competition with herbs and mosses on the forest floor appears to be responsible for the disproportionate number of tree seedlings found on logs within many Picea–Tsuga forests.
