Relationships between soil seed banks and adult tree distance in an abandoned area of the Mae Klong Watershed Research Station, western Thailand

Abstract. The soil seed bank (SSB) is a crucial component of ecosystem resilience, particularly with regard to facilitating natural regeneration following

Earthquakes impact forest resilience for decades post-event, research suggests

Earthquake effects are often thought of in terms of the human impact, be that fatalities or destruction to homes and infrastructure. However, the environmental toll can also be damaging, and new research, published in Nature Geoscience, suggests the forest recovery may take even longer than rebuilding an urban zone's infrastructure, on the scale of decades. For example, after the 1950 Zayu-Medog, Tibet, earthquake it took 45 years for the forests to fully recover.

Climate change is not only making wildfires more frequent and intense, but also affecting their ability to recover. A new study shows that some forests in the western US are struggling to regrow after severe fires, due to warmer and drier conditions. This could have serious consequences for biodiversity, carbon storage, and water supply. #Wildfires #ForestRecovery #ClimateImpact https://phys.org/news/2023-10-climate-affecting-ability-wildfires.html
Climate change affecting ability to prevent US wildfires: study

Shifting weather patterns caused by climate change are limiting when controlled burns can be carried out to prevent wildfires in the western United States, a new study warns.
