Connectivity loss has been identified as one of the greatest threats to biodiversity, at both the
species and ecosystem levels. This study aims to find possible correlations between …

The relationships between productivity, fire frequency and fire severity shape the distribution
of plant communities globally. Dry forests are expected to burn frequently and wet forests to …

The vulnerability to repeated high severity fires of tall wet eucalypt forests (TWEF) dominated
by obligate seeder species is widely understood. However, 80% of Tasmania's TWEF are …

To sustainably manage forest biodiversity and monitor changes in species patterning,
mapping the spatial distribution of tree species is indispensable. Remote sensing can …

Rapid warming in alpine regions exerts important effects on carbon cycling in alpine
ecosystem, which are sensitive to environmental changes. So far, little is known about the …

In this study, we examined the associations between field-assessed floristic and structural
habitat values for mature forest and GIS-derived variables to assess whether high …

Maintaining developmental heterogeneity of ecological communities within landscapes is
crucial for sustainable native forest management. Consequently, methods to assess forest …

Habitat trees (mature live and dead trees with hollows) are a keystone habitat in Australian
eucalypt forests where tree hollows typically occur in large, old trees. These trees provide …

Mature forests have structural habitat features that can take hundreds of years to develop,
and large reserves alone are unlikely to ensure conservation of the species that rely on …

Mature trees and forests contain structural features such as tree hollows, large coarse
woody debris and large spreading crowns that provide critical habitat for a wide range of …
