Modelling dominant height and site index in different edaphoclimatic zones of Nothofagus dombeyi secondary forest in the Andes of south-central Chile
Item type: Journal Article • Journal: Southern Forests: a Journal of Forest Science • Authors: Carlos Esse --- Universidad Católica de Temuco, Escuela de Ciencias Forestales, Chile Pablo J Donoso --- Universidad Austral de Chile, Instituto de Bosques y Sociedad, Chile Víctor Gerding --- Universidad Austral de Chile, Instituto de Bosques y Sociedad, Chile Celso Navarro --- Universidad Católica de Temuco, Escuela de Ciencias Forestales, Chile Francisco Encina-Montoya --- Universidad Católica de Temuco, Escuela de Ciencias Ambientales, ChileNothofagus dombeyi grows in a wide variety of sites. The information about its productivity is still scarce, which makes it difficult for foresters and landowners to take decisions about the best practices to maintain and/or improve the goods and services... -
Secondary Nothofagus dombeyi forests: site index curves and dominant height in the Coastal Range of south-central Chile
Item type: Journal Article • Journal: Southern Forests: a Journal of Forest Science • Authors: Carlos Esse --- Escuela de Ciencias Ambientales, Nucleo de Estudios Ambientales, Chile Pablo J Donoso --- Instituto de Bosques y Sociedad, Facultad de Ciencias Forestales y Recursos Naturales, Universidad Austral de Chile, Chile Victor Gerding --- Instituto de Bosques y Sociedad, Facultad de Ciencias Forestales y Recursos Naturales, Universidad Austral de Chile, Chile Francisco Encina-Montoya --- Escuela de Ciencias Ambientales, Nucleo de Estudios Ambientales, Chile Celso Navarro --- Escuela de Ciencias Ambientales, Nucleo de Estudios Ambientales, ChileNothofagus dombeyi is distributed on very diverse sites in the temperate forests of Chile and Argentina. In Chile, studies on its dynamics and productivity in forests, where it is the dominant species, have been carried out mainly in the foothills... -
Identifying phenological functional types in savanna trees
Item type: Journal Article • Journal: African Journal of Range & Forage Science • Authors: Nthambeleni D Masia --- Council for Scientific and Industrial Research, Natural Resources and the Environment, South Africa Nicola Stevens --- Global Change and Biodiversity Group, Department of Botany and Zoology, South Africa Sally Archibald --- Council for Scientific and Industrial Research, Natural Resources and the Environment, South AfricaSavannas are notable for the varied patterns of leaf display in the tree layer. Characterising this variation, and assessing the range of phenological strategies apparent in savanna ecosystems will be helpful for understanding savanna tree life-histories and their response to... -
Essential oil composition of Pentzia incana (Asteraceae), an important natural pasture plant in the Karoo region of South Africa
Item type: Journal Article • Journal: African Journal of Range & Forage Science • Authors: Isabel M Hulley --- Department of Botany and Plant Biotechnology, South Africa Nicholas J Sadgrove --- Department of Botany and Plant Biotechnology, South Africa Patricia M Tilney --- Department of Botany and Plant Biotechnology, South Africa Gulmira Özek --- Department of Pharmacognosy, Faculty of Pharmacy, Turkey Suleyman Yur --- Medicinal Plant, Drug and Scientific Research Center, Turkey Temel Özek --- Department of Pharmacognosy, Faculty of Pharmacy, Turkey Kemal Hüsnü Can Başer --- Department of Pharmacognosy, Faculty of Pharmacy, Northern Cyprus Ben-Erik van Wyk --- Department of Botany and Plant Biotechnology, South AfricaPentzia incana is one of the most important of all natural pasture plants in the dry interior (Karoo) region of South Africa. This highly aromatic shrub is thought to be responsible for the distinctive flavour of Karoo lamb (a registered... -
A tree-level analysis of baboon damage in commercial forest stands using deep learning techniques
Item type: Journal Article • Journal: Southern Forests: a Journal of Forest Science • Authors: Regardt Ferreira --- Nelson Mandela University, South Africa Kabir Peerbhay --- , South Africa Josua Louw --- Nelson Mandela University, South Africa Ilaria Germishuizen --- Institute for Commercial Forestry Research, South Africa Andrew Morris --- Institute for Commercial Forestry Research, South Africa Romano Lottering --- University of KwaZulu-Natal, South AfricaCommercial forest plantations in South Africa are homogeneous monocultures of highly bred exotic species grown to deliver timber products of the best potential quality. As such, these stands are susceptible to adverse effects of biotic and abiotic factors, and therefore...
