We present results from repeated analyses (1962, 1993) of a permanent plot established in
1947, combined with retrospective stand age structure data, in an old Pinus sylvestris stand …

Recent findings indicated spruce from North America and larch from eastern Siberia to be
the dominating tree species of Arctic driftwood throughout the Holocene. However, changes …

We compared the plant understorey between stands of introduced Pinus contorta and native
P. sylvestris in boreal northern Sweden using a chronosequence of 24 paired stands of P …

Altered forest landscape structure has been suggested as a possible cause for the decline of
some specialized forest species in Fennoscandia. Here, we present a time series of boreal …

Fire regimes and herbivore densities have in parts of the boreal been heavily impacted by
human activities with consequences for vegetation, forage supply and ungulate use. In this …

Termination of fire along with active removal of deciduous trees in favor of conifers together
with anthropogenic transformation of productive forest into agricultural land, have …

Wildfire and clearcutting are two main disturbances in North American forests, but whether
root systems may respond differently to such disturbances is unknown. Here, we studied …

Albedo influences vegetation structure, permafrost thawing, etc., in particular, after wildfires
in Picea mariana forests in Alaska, USA, while albedo changes with plant succession. To …

Self-thinning dynamics were examined in a natural, 120-year, insect-mediated balsam fir
(Abies balsamea (L.) Mill.) chronosequence in the humid boreal forests of western …

A well-defined landscape-level, insect-mediated chronosequence of naturally regenerated
balsam fir (Abies balsamea (L.) Mill.) stands in western Newfoundland provided a unique …
