Seedling planting plays a key role in active forest restoration and regeneration of managed
stands. Plant attributes at outplanting can determine tree seedling survival and consequently …

Tree seedling survival is critical for estimating forest recruitment, but it remain elusive about
how neighboring tree's density and herbaceous plants affect it. To assess the relative …

The success of restoration projects is known to vary widely, with outcomes relating to
numerous biotic and abiotic factors. Though many studies have examined the factors …

Increasing light availability by opening up the forest canopy is a key tool for forest managers
to stimulate natural regeneration of trees. Tree seedlings are also impacted by a complex set …

Seedling survival and successful forest restoration involves many silvicultural practices. One
important aspect of a successful forest restoration program is planting quality seedlings with …

Abstract Background and Aims In spatially heterogeneous environments, a trade-off
between seedling survival and relative growth rate may promote the coexistence of plant …

Successful forest restoration requires planting quality seedlings with optimal growth
potential. Thus, nurseries need to produce seedlings with plant attributes that favor the best …

The ongoing global warming and associated drying are shaping the fate of forests
worldwide. While processes of tree mortality are visible and studied, a decrease in forest …

Climate change can affect tree recruitment altering post-dispersal seed fates and impairing
seedling development, and these effects will be stronger at man-disturbed areas than …

Restoring seasonally dry tropical forest is a worldwide priority, since it is the most threatened
of all major tropical forest types. In Veracruz, Mexico, the dry forest has been reduced to …
