There is a strong link between vegetation and environmental factors.Therefore,to elucidate how the stoichiometric characteristics of plants respond to different habitats,we studied organic carbon(C)and total nitrogen(...
This research is part of the project“Impact of extensive windthrow areas on the dynamics of slopefluvial system”funded by the National Science Centre,Poland(DS,grant No.UMO-2017/27/N/ST10/00802);Mapping scars created by wood transport in 2016 and recording water levels in 2018 were part of the project“Assessment of large-scale windthrow areas impact on hydrochemical regime and denudation of catchments located in mountain forests(Polish Tatra Mountains)”realized in 2016(MŻ,grant No.K/KDU/000334)and 2018(MŻ,grant No.K/KDU/000494),funded by the forest fund of the State Forests National Forest Holding.
Strong wind events frequently result in creating large areas of windthrow, which causes abrupt environmental changes. Bare soil surfaces within pits and root plates potentially expose soil to erosion. Absence of fores...

Phylogenetic and phylogeographic studies rely on the accurate quantification of biodiversity. In recent studies of taxonomically ambiguous groups, species boundaries are often determined based on multi-locus sequence ...
We conducted a study to examine the pattem of develop- ment of herbaceous plant species, woody species regeneration and soil physical characteristics after tree uprooting in 20-ha areas of Experimen- tal Forest Statio...
In accordance with a proposal put forward by leaders of the US Bureau of Water & Soil Conservation during a meeting with the author on July 20, 1994, this article gives a detailed account of the origin and strategies ...
