In this study, we compared the soil seed bank and current vegetation under coniferous plantations and adjacent native deciduous forests. The objective was to assess how much of the initial plant diversity is retained in such plantations,... more
Species in the genus Castanea are widely distributed in the deciduous forests of the Northern Hemisphere from Asia to Europe and North America. They show floristic similarity but differences in chestnut blight resistance especially among... more
The aim of this paper is to present the non-target species caught in the traps baited with synthetic pheromones of the species Cydia pomonella, Grapholita funebrana, Grapholita molesta, Archips podana, Adoxophyes orana, Tortrix viridana... more
Surface water and soil samples were collected from a series of small catchments on granitic gneiss in the Canton of Ticino in southern Switzerland. Elevations of the sampling points ranged from 220 to 2400 m; vegetation varied... more

The Białowieża Primeval Forest (BPF) is the only forest area in temperate Europe where forest communities have developed a natural stand structure and a natural distribution of coarse woody debris ((CWD)=standing dead trees (SDT)+down... more
Wooded meadows are seminatural plant communities that support high diversity of various taxa. Due to changes in land use, wooded meadows have severely declined during the last century. The dominant trees in wooded meadows acquire mineral... more
ON PATAGONIAN PHYTOGEOGRAPHY. The character of the vegetation of the southernmost South America (Patagonia s. lat.) is notably dualistic. Eastern parts are characterized by open spaces of the treeless Patagonian steppe while areas on the... more
Multidisciplinary investigations of the sequence at Beeches Pit, West Stow (Suffolk, UK), have a direct bearing the age of the Hoxnian Interglacial and its correlation with the continental Holsteinian and with the global marine record. At... more
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of habitat loss, fragmentation and habitat quality on sedentary forest birds in an urban and suburban environment. The study area was situated in Stockholm, the capital of Sweden,... more
A detailed analysis of the location and composition of Iberian vegetation types during the whole Pleistocene and Holocene periods shows a complex patched landscape with persistence of different types of ecosystems, even during glacial... more
