Evaluating forest resilience to global threats using functional response traits and network properties
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2020-07)Ecosystem functions provided by forests are threatened by direct and indirect effects of global change drivers such as climate warming land-use change, biological invasions, and shifting natural disturbance regimes. To ... -
Evenness mediates the global relationship between forest productivity and richness
(WILEY, 2023-06)Biodiversity is an important component of natural ecosystems, with higher species richness often correlating with an increase in ecosystem productivity. Yet, this relationship varies substantially across environments, ... -
Height growth-rate at a given height: A mathematical perspective for forest productivity
(Elsevier, 2020-09)Understanding the height growth of trees is a fundamental component for scientific knowledge and management of forest ecosystems. The height of dominant trees at a reference-age, commonly known as the site-index, is the ... -
Integrating conflict, lobbying, and compliance to predict the sustainability of natural resource use
(The Resilience Alliance, 2020-06)Predictive models are sorely needed to guide the management of harvested natural resources worldwide, yet existing frameworks fail to integrate the dynamic and interacting governance processes driving unsustainable use. ... -
