High levels of green-tree retention are required to preserve ground beetle biodiversity in boreal mixedwood forests
Download2010
Jacobs, J.J., Volney, W.J.A., Work, T.T., Spence, J.R.
Recovery of biodiversity and other ecosystem functions to pre-disturbance levels is a central goal of natural disturbance-based approaches to ecosystem management. In boreal mixedwood forests, green-tree retention has been proposed as an alternative approach to traditional clearcutting that may...

Implementation of a marauding insect module (MIM, version 10) in the integrated bIosphere simulator (IBIS, version 26b4) dynamic vegetation–land surface model

Landry, Jean-Sebastion, Price, David T., Ramankutty, Navin, Parrott, Lael, Matthews, H. Damon
Insects defoliate and kill plants in many ecosystems worldwide. The consequences of these natural processes on terrestrial ecology and nutrient cycling are well established, and their potential climatic effects resulting from modified land–atmosphere exchanges of carbon, energy, and water are...

Raffa, Kenneth F., Aukema, Brian H., Bentz, Barbara J., Carroll, Allan L., Hicke, Jeffrey A., Kolb, Thomas E.
Bark beetles cause widespread tree mortal- ity, so understanding how climate change will infl uence the distribution and magni- tude of outbreaks by this group of herbi- vores is important. We fi rst develop a framework of outbreak dynamics that emphasizes transitions from states domi- nated by...

Tropical forest restoration within Galapagos National Park: application of a state-transition model

Wilkinson, S.R., Schmeigelow, F.K.A., Naeth, M.A.
Current theory on non-equilibrium communities, thresholds of irreversibility, and ecological resilience suggests the goal of ecological restoration of degraded communities is not to achieve one target, but to reestablish the temporal and spatial diversity inherent in natural ecosystems. Few...
