Spontaneous succession in Central-European man-made habitats: What information can be used in restoration practice? (2003, background): “This seems to be valid for the eutrophic landscapes of temperate Europe, but not for extreme, marginal areas (Whisenant 1999).”
Restoring habitat corridors in fragmented landscapes using optimization and percolation models (2005, background): “The need for landscape-scale approaches to restoration, in addition to site-specific methods, has also been recognized [5].”
APPLYING PLANT FACILITATION TO FOREST RESTORATION: A META-ANALYSIS OF THE USE OF SHRUBS AS NURSE PLANTS (2004, background): “Consequently, sites and years with stressful summer droughts promise the best advantage of nurse plants for the recovery of degraded vegetation (Whisenant 1999, Pickett et al. 2001).”
Guidelines for improved management of riparian zones invaded by alien plants in South Africa (2008, background): “However at local scales, in situations where dense to closed alien stands have existed for some time, thresholds may have been passed whereby ecosystems no longer have the capacity to recover unaided after removal of the aliens, but require either vegetation manipulation, modification of the physica”
The vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis (2003, background): “As such, land restoration in semi-arid areas faces a number of constrains related to soil degradation and water shortage (Whisenant, 1999; Valejo et al., 2002a, b).”
