Because of changing land-use practices and abandonment, many European calcareous grasslands are under increasing threat. In order to protect those gra...

Most studies in applied ecology use measures of α-diversity measures, i.e. the mean diversity on a site, to compare biodiversity effects of different ...

The effects of tillage (till, no-till), mulch (none, dead Secale cereale [rye]), and crop competition (none, sweetcorn) on weed seed production and se...

Classical biological control (CBC) can be used to decrease the density of invasive species to below an acceptable ecological and economic threshold. N...

Attempts to quantify the impact of non-native plants on the vegetation of invaded habitats have often been criticized because of the frequent use of o...

1. Conservation translocations are an established method for reducing the extinction risk of plant species through intentional movement within or outs...

One of the major challenges in invasion biology is to predict the likelihood of naturalization, and ultimately invasiveness, of species from propertie...

Using knowledge of leaf functional traits, such as those forming the leaf economics spectrum (LES), to understand plant responses to environmental cha...

Slash harvesting from forests to provide bioenergy reduces the amount of woody debris in the managed forest landscape and changes the physical and che...

In Europe, intensively managed coniferous plantations rarely achieve similar nature conservation functions as deciduous woodlands. The ability to iden...
