Fluctuating ungulate density shapes tree recruitment in natural stands of the BiałOwieża Primeval Forest, Poland. (2010, background): “The preferred species are predicted to experience a large impact, whereas a lower impact is expected on less preferred species (Horsley et al. 2003; Modry et al. 2004; Long et al. 2007).”
Experimental test of the impacts of feral hogs on forest dynamics and processes in the southeastern US (2009, unknown): “This is not an unusual or surprising result in that high densities of browsing mammals such as white-tailed deer may often reduce sapling growth rates (Cote et al., 2004; Long et al., 2007).”
Size‐dependence of growth and mortality influence the shade tolerance of trees in a lowland temperate rain forest (2009, background): “…of shaded small seedlings to mobilize carbohydrate reserves to withstand damage (Canham et al. 1999; Lusk & Piper 2007), and variation of external stress has the potential to affect the shade tolerance of the species (see Long et al. 2007 for an example based on variation of herbivory pressure).”
