Restoration at the landscape scale as a means of mitigation and adaptation to climate change
Abstract Purpose of Review Although landscape-scale restoration efforts are gaining traction
worldwide, their success is generally unknown. We review landscape-scale restorations to …

Active restoration fosters better recovery of tropical rainforest birds than natural regeneration in degraded forest fragments
P Hariharan, TRS Raman - Journal of Applied Ecology, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
Ecological restoration has emerged as a key strategy for conserving tropical forests and
habitat specialists, and monitoring faunal recovery using indicator taxa like birds can help …

Bird functional traits respond to forest structure in riparian areas undergoing active restoration
Monitoring wildlife responses is essential to assess restoration projects. Birds are widely
used as bioindicators of ecosystem restoration, but most studies use only taxonomic …

Using density surface models to estimate spatio‐temporal changes in population densities and trend
Precise measures of population abundance and trend are needed for species conservation;
these are most difficult to obtain for rare and rapidly changing populations. We compare …

Crossing the threshold: Invasive grasses inhibit forest restoration on Hawaiian islands
Forest removal for livestock grazing is a striking example of human‐caused state change
leading to a stable, undesirable invasive grass system that is resistant to restoration efforts …

Influence of native woody understory on invasive grasses and soil nitrogen dynamics under plantation and remnant montane tropical trees
While the influence of canopy trees on soils in natural and restored forest environments is
well studied, the influence of understory species is not. Here, we evaluate the effects of …

Core arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi are predicted by their high abundance–occupancy relationship while host‐specific taxa are rare and geographically structured
Habitat restoration may depend on the recovery of plant microbial symbionts such as
arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi, but this requires a better understanding of the rules that …

Trophic interactions and feedbacks maintain intact and degraded states of Hawaiian tropical forests
Feedbacks within ecosystems can lead to internal reinforcement of the current state
providing ecosystem resilience. Often, multiple biotic interactions across trophic levels play a …

Local management or wider context: What determines the value of farm revegetation plantings for birds?
Small‐scale revegetation plantings on farms are common to restoration efforts in agricultural
regions worldwide. Such plantings provide habitat for diverse faunal groups. A key question …
