Mining activity affects the vegetation and soils of the ecosystems.However,the effects of mining activity on saxicolous lichen communities are less concerned.Thus,the aim of this study was to characterize saxicolous l...
Scatter-hoarding rodents store seeds throughout their home ranges in superficially buried caches which,unlike seeds larder-hoarded in burrows,are difficult to defend.Cached seeds are often pilfered by other scatter-ho...
First-year seedling survival impacts all subsequent management planning in plantation forestry. Descriptive statistics of first-year seedling survival data from the Louisiana Department of Agriculture and Forestry (LD...
Pit and mound micro-relief(resultant microsites from trees uprooted by windthrow) could have regimes of microclimate and soil features that differ from areas of undisturbed soil. In an attempt to provide a comprehensi...
Zagros forests are mainly covered byQuercus brantii L. coppices and oak sprout clumps occupy the forest area like patches. We investigated post-fire herbaceous diversity in the first growing season after fire. For thi...
