Restoration of degraded subtropical succulent thicket, via the planting of Portulacaria afra (spekboom) truncheons, is the focus of a public works programme funded by the South African government. The goals of the programme, which started in 2004, ar

Restoration of subtropical thicket in South Africa using the plant Portulacaria afra (an ecosystem engineer) has been hampered, in part, by selecting sites that are frost prone—this species is intolerant of frost. Identifying parts of the landscape

Accurate biomass and carbon flux estimations are essential for global carbon cycle modeling and are useful for setting and evaluating ecological restoration goals. Estimates derived from remote sensing can only be as good as the field data with which

Aim The sub-escarpment coastal plains of South Africa provide remarkable opportunities to study the determinants of biome boundaries as numerous biomes are found closely juxtaposed, including the Nama-Karoo semi-desert shrubland and Albany subtropica

An accepted criterion for measuring the success of ecosystem restoration is the return of biodiversity relative to intact reference ecosystems. The emerging global carbon economy has made landscape-scale restoration of severely degraded Portulacaria
