Regeneration of Native Plant Species in Restored Forests on Degraded Lands in SingaporebackgroundThis article presents the natural regeneration of woody species in the understory of 1 year-old and 4-year old plantation in Singapore. Available with subscription or purchase |
Reforestation Experiences with Dipterocarp Species on GrasslandbackgroundAvailable with subscription or purchase |
Biomass Equations for Tropical Tree Plantations Using Secondary Data from the PhilippinesbackgroundThis study advances models for biomass estimation of tropical forests using equations verified by sampling in Philippines plantations. Evidence-based, site-specific equations for biomass estimation can avoid the need for frequent destructive sampling. Open access copy available |
Impact of Plantation on Ecosystem Development in Disturbed Coal Mine Overburden SpoilsbackgroundThis study evaluates the growth, survival, understory composition, and soil conditions in a plantation established on a mine site in India. Available with subscription or purchase |
Evaluation of Reforestation Potential of 83 Tree Species Planted on Imperata cylindrica Dominated Grassland – A case Study from South Kalimantan, IndonesiabackgroundIn this study, 83 tree species (native and exotic) were tested for their growth and survival in species selection trials in South Kalimantan, Indonesia.

Ecología experimental y ecofisiología: bases para el uso sostenible de los recursos naturales de las zonas áridas neo-tropicales (Experimental ecology and ecophysiology in dry tropical forests)El autor recoge los resultados más relevantes que han permitido la resolución de algunos problemas de producción vegetal, que pueden ser utilizados como herramientas fundamentales de planificación para la producción en las tierras secas en el noroeste Venezuela. Las condiciones edáficas y climáticas que caracterizan las zonas áridas y semiáridas tropicales las colocan entre los ecosistemas más frágiles del mundo y más susceptibles a la desertificación.
