The #Anthropocene is one big SES leading to widespread #vegetation change. #Succession is an integral part of #socioecological system (SES) dynamics that it is driven by social and ecological factors operating at different spatial scales. doi.org/10.1002/ecs2.4… #restoration
How to analyse #succession? We present a conceptual framework how to analyse successional processes, underlying #mechanisms, and drivers for #vegetation across the globe. One of the best papers I have (co)written! Hope you like it. doi.org/10.1002/ecs2.4… #restoration #ecology
Tree #species traits and # fungi drive stem decomposition. #Tree stem #decomposition is crucial for #carbon and nutrient cycling. It increases initially with acquisitive stem #traits, and later with bark traits and fungal composition (brown & white rot). doi.org/10.1111/1365-2…
What if you are stuck in the shade? Understory #trees receive less light and grow less in height than canopy trees. Yet, they invest a larger part of their new biomass in height growth to overtop their neighbors and stay in the race for the #forest #canopy doi.org/10.1111/oik.10…
How to get a structurally diverse forest? Canopy #trees have the fastest height #growth, followed by subcanopy and understory trees. Growth differences amongst #forest strata and #species lead to a rapid variation in tree sizes and structural #diversity. doi.org/10.1111/oik.10…
Interested in #succession and #restoration of #tropical #forest? Here two presentations by @hordijk_iris and myself in Spanish. Thnx 2 Oaxaca y @IIESUNAM ! fb.watch/qaCQ0oO9Uq/?mi…
All you want to know about… #secondary #tropical #forest #succession. A free special issue on successional theories, dynamics, #landuse legacies, #landscape effects and seedrain. In Spanish, for a general audience, what else do you want? shorturl.at/bsvyJ @SMCE
Vegetation in the loop! Feedback loops drive #vegetation #succession & explain the large variability in successional pathways. Great #review by v Breugel & friends and a beautiful conceptual framework doi.org/10.1111/brv.13…
Over 80% of the world’s terrestrial #biodiversity can be found in forests; their destruction threatens the survival of many species. Forest landscape restoration can help reverse these losses. @IUCN_forests #GenerationRestoration Via @IUCN
I wish a greener, more biodiverse & sustainable 2024 for all! Here an impressive 4 yr old high #biodiversity (>50spp!!) #rainforest #restoration planting in Queensland that we monitor for the @PantropEu project
Herbaceous and dry #forest #species have ‘fast’ leaf traits. We analyzed #leaf #traits of >300 spp belonging to 6 life forms and found a leaf #economics spectrum underpinning fast-slow growth #strategies, and a leaf size spectrum related to plant size. tiny.cc/l2jhvz
Good old stuff! It was fun to review 100 years of #successional #theories. As #scientists we tend to focus on the past 10 years (=hot&new??) but please also read&cite papers from when your parents were born & get inspired. Good stuff is from all times! doi.org/10.1111/brv.12…
Everything you do (not) want to know about #secondary #forest #succession in 27 min! You can watch my keynote at @NewPhyt #NGS meeting summarizing key findings of @2ndFOR1 and the ERC @PantropEu project. For the last 7 slides,watch my next presentation..;) cassyni.com/events/69DCENF…
Succession of successional theories! We reviewed 100 years of successional #theories; they increase in scale and scope, reflecting the increasingly broader perspective on #succession over time. doi.org/10.1111/brv.12… @theATBC @2ndFOR1
Updating the model of secondary succession in the Tropics (onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/ge…) - a wonderful collaboration led by #NadjaRuger @2ndFOR1 @InvestigaUMayor @CEM_UMayor
Here is the MS Teams link: eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/ap/t-59584e83/…
Friday Jan 27 farewell symposium Frans Bongers on Old-Forests New Forests, with exciting speakers. You can follow it on-line via MSTeams (Dutch Time, link below).
Indicators 4 ecological integrity. Cool paper by @mirosenfield reviewing ecological #integrity/#resilience/ecosystem #health & providing 10 indicators to monitor tropical #forest regrowth and #restoration: composition, structure, function, and landscape. doi.org/10.1111/brv.12…
How do #tropical soils resist forest conversion to agriculture and how do they recover during #forest #succession on old fields? #Soil C, N, and bulk density recover- and fastest on fertile soils, in wet regions and old cropfields. doi.org/10.1098/rstb.2…

#Soil resistance and recovery during neotropical #forest #succession. Using ~560 soil samples from 21 sites, we found that soil resistance to #landusechange and recovery after land abandonment depends on #clay activity and #landusehistory. tinyurl.com/45e3dvpy
Yes, #landscapes matters for #forest #patches, but up to where? Small-seeded #tree #species are affected at small spatial scales (400m radius) as they disperse easily, #animal-dispersed spp at large scales (1600-3200m) as animals need forest habitat. tinyurl.com/475dj95t
Natural regeneration is key to achieving #restoration targets. Starting a new study in Kenya to unravel how #farmers modify #succession on cropping fields (#FMNR, farmer managed natural regeneration) to meet their needs. Early insights, stay tuned for more! 🧵(1/5)
A terrific way to end the week - class trip to #InSituWines to learn about sustainable practices @CEM_UMayor @InvestigaUMayor
