Two lichen species of the genus Umbilicaria were transplanted into each other's habitat in order to determine the role of winter field conditions in regulating distribution patterns. U. vellea (L.) Ach., which normally grows in a steeply inclined, sn

Summary 1. Plant establishment is critical for community assembly, but mechanisms regulating establishment can be obscured by covarying influences of incoming seed diversity and fine-scale spatial environmental heterogeneity (microhabitat heterogenei

It is unknown to what extent or by what mechanisms introducing biodiversity influences stability of high-stress ecosystems undergoing restoration. Opportunity to investigate patterns of biodiversity and resistance to disturbance in a high-stress envi

Ecosystem rehabilitation strategies are grounded in the concept that coexisting species fit their environments as an outcome of natural selection operating over ecological and evolutionary timescales. From this perspective, re-creation of historical

Previous studies have suggested that strip‐bark growth in ancient Thuja occidentalis on cliffs in southern Ontario, Canada, may be initiated by root mortality following rockfall. We conducted a long‐term manipulative field study on 65 cliff‐fac

In rocky, heterogeneous environments that support old-growth forests, the relationship between tree size and age is weaker than it is for trees growing in productive and homogeneous habitats. To assist in the management and conservation of ancient fo

Question: Are the biophysical conditions of abandoned limestone quarry floors and natural alvars sufficiently similar to each other for alvars to be used as a model for quarry floor restoration? Location: Ontario, Canada. Methods: We measured plant s

Spirit Lake, Washington was radically altered limnologically by the May 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens. The eruption provided a rare opportunity to study lake response and recovery in the wake of volcanic disturbance. During the eruption, and for

Many researchers report that rock climbing has significant negative effects on cliff biota. Most work on climbing disturbance, however, has not controlled for variation in microsite characteristics when comparing areas with and without climbing prese
