Mortality of remaining trees tends to increase after logging, and adapting forest management to climate change is another significant challenge to ensure the sustainability of forests, timber production, and provision of ecosystem... more
As a result of forest modification, primates are increasingly having to rely on fragments; so too are the human populations that have historically relied on continuous forest for critical resources. The role of primates in seed dispersal... more
Изучен онтогенез дуба черешчатого (Quercus robur L.) в сосняках-зеленомошниках. При этом опирались на концепцию биологического возраста растений и представления о поливариантности развития особей. Показано, что в развитии дуба выделяются... more
The study was conducted in Dong Nai Reserve, specially protected natural area (SPNA), Vietnam. It aims to analyze and forecast forest land cover in the Reserve. For these purposes were studied satellite images (Landsat 5, Landsat 7 and... more
In climate change ecology, simplistic research approaches may yield unrealistically simplistic answers to often more complicated problems. In particular, the complexity of vegetation responses to global climate change begs a better... more
Summary Natural and anthropogenic disturbances co‐occur in most systems, but how they interact to shape demographic outcomes remains poorly understood. Such interactions may alter dynamics of populations in non‐additive ways, making... more
The results of the first lichenological studies in the old park of the museum-reserve “Gorki Leninsky” (Leninsky urban district of the Moscow oblast) are presented. The checklist of lichen biota is given including 71 species of lichens... more
The research is aimed at a comprehensive assessment of the forest site resources deposited in a birch blueberry forest. The relevance of the work is based on the increasing interest of countries and regions in the diversity of forest... more
We have developed a system of plant functional groups for modeling dynamics of forest ground vegetation. Ecological and coenotic traits of species together with species life form and biomass values were used to classify species into the... more

PremiseLife span varies greatly across plants with some species capable of extreme longevity. Yet, even long‐lived individuals are susceptible to climatic events, fire, and other challenges. Here, we examined rare mortality events and... more
Relevance and purpose. The Russian geobotanical science has a profound tradition of studying the vegetation cover heterogeneities. However, the number of studies on the mosaics in complexly organized coniferous-deciduous forests is very... more
Premise: Life span varies greatly across plants, with some species being capable of extreme longevity. Yet even long-lived individuals are susceptible to climatic events, fire, and other challenges. We examined rare mortality events and... more

Описано индивидуальное развитие дуба черешчатого (Quercus robur L.) на пойменных лугах в условиях свободного роста. При этом в работе использована концепция биологического возраста растений, разработанная российскими учеными. В развитии... more
Статья, опираясь на концепцию биологического возраста растений, разработанную российскими учеными, знакомит читателя с онтогенетическими состояниями, которые выделяются в индивидуальном развитии деревьев: семенами, проростками,... more
La actividad de la construcción y demolición produce cuantiosos residuos sólidos que deterioran el medio ambiente urbano y ocupan lugar en el espacio público. Asimismo, es conocido el impacto ambiental que ocasiona la producción de... more
Spatial pattern and patterns of mortality were analyzed from a five year re-census of over 7000 mapped perennial shrubs within a one hectare study plot in Joshua Tree National Park. A five year interval revealed evidence for negative... more
