With the demand for, and scale of, ecological restoration increasing globally, effectiveness
monitoring remains a significant challenge. For forest restoration, structural complexity is a …

More frequent and severe disturbances increasingly open the forest canopy and initiate tree
regeneration. Simultaneously, increasing weather extremes, such as drought and heat, are …

Climate warming is likely to shift the range margins of species poleward, but fine‐scale
temperature differences near the ground (microclimates) may modify these range shifts. For …

Forest edges are interfaces between forest interiors and adjacent land cover types. They are
important elements in the landscape with almost 20% of the global forest area located within …

Forest cover creates a specific microclimate by buffering most environmental variables. If the
influence of the overstory on microclimatic variables has been well studied, the role of the …

Forest microclimate is strongly affected by local topography and management activities, as
these directly alter overstory structure. In the present work we analysed the dependence of …

In agroforestry systems, trees modify climatic parameters over a given area and create a
complex microclimate through interactions between topography, plant composition and …

Foliar litter is an important terrestrial source of dissolved organic matter (DOM) and
disinfection byproducts (DBPs) in the source water supply. Climate changes could alter …

Aim Dead wood‐inhabiting bryophyte communities are formed by several important factors.
Besides the amount, quality and continuity of the substrate, there are also external factors …

Depending on the environment, sunlight can positively or negatively affect litter
decomposition, through the ensemble of direct and indirect processes constituting …
