PATTERNS OF SEEDFALL AND SEEDLING ESTABLISHMENT IN AN EAST TEXAS RIVER FLOODPLAIN FOREST: THE CONTRIBUTION OF SEEDLING DYNAMICS TO SPECIES COEXISTENCE (PLANT DEMOGRAPHY, DISPERSAL, TREE REGENERATION, SURVIVORSHIP, MORTALITY)
… and temporal patterns of seed deposition, seedling appearance, survivorship, and growth in an East Texas river floodplain forest from 1980 through 1984, and estimated the importance of several factors including flooding, drought, shading, insect herbivory, and fungal attack in causing …

Regeneration of fire-adapted species in the Sierra Nevada contingent upon repeated fuel treatments and available soil moisture
… often do not explicitly consider regeneration dynamics. The increasing ubiquity of fuel treatments, and the necessity to implement them repeatedly, calls for a better understanding of how treatments may influence tree seedling communities and shape stand trajectories over time, yet this remains …

Fine-Scale Mechanisms Influencing Germination Success, Seedling Growth and Survival in an Alpine Forest-Tundra Ecotone
… germination, establishment and growth of young seedlings. To that end, I studied the white spruce (Picea glauca) alpine treeline in the Kluane region of southwest Yukon to explore two important questions related to treeline ecology: (1) Is there sufficient viable seed dispersed at and beyond …
