Context Intensification and specialisation of agriculture and forest use has led to profound
structural and compositional changes in European landscapes. In particular, sharp, narrow …

Failed oak regeneration is widely reported in temperate forests and has been linked in part
to changed disturbance regimes and land‐use. We investigated if the North American fire …

The shift from shade‐intolerant species to shade‐tolerant mesophytic species in deciduous
and mixed forests of the temperate zone is well described in studies from North America …

Semi-open oak woods and solitary oaks commonly dominate the wooded fabric (ie the
'oakscape') of European traditional rural agricultural landscapes based on animal …

Traditional husbandry fostered rich semi-open oakwood communities composed of forest
and non-forest species. In the eastern Carpathian region, silvo-pastoralism was …

The term pyric herbivory was first introduced in 2009, describing how fire shapes herbivory
as burned areas attract herbivores and, simultaneously, herbivory shapes fuel load and fire …

Fire and herbivory are fundamental top‐down processes, structuring grass–tree ratios in
ecosystems across a diversity of climates. Both are plant consumers that can strongly control …

Czarnota, P., Mayrhofer, h. & Bobiec, a. 2018. Noteworthy lichenized and lichenicolous fungi
of open-canopy oak stands in east-central Europe.-Herzogia 31: 172–189. Eighteen species …

Previous studies found that pedunculate oak, one of the most widespread and abundant
species in European deciduous forests, regenerates in open habitats and forest edges, but …

The dendrometric characteristics are functions of tree age and ecological growth conditions.
On relatively small areas of homogeneous sites, the stand age structure and the phytosocial …
