Demographic processes limiting seedling recruitment in arid grassland restoration (2011, background): “In addition, failed seedings following a disturbance give invasive species an opportunity to establish and spread, posing a major barrier to future recruitment (Standish et al. 2007; Abraham, Corbin&D’Antonio 2009).”
Regeneration of sandy old-fields in the forest steppe region of Hungary (2011, background): “The combination of these two approaches is rarely performed (e.g. Ruprecht 2006; Standish et al. 2007; Öster et al. 2009; Török et al. 2011a); yet this could show both how fast (or slowly) succession proceeds and how different the secondary vegetation is from the target communities.”
Restoration of Themeda australis swards suppresses soil nitrate and enhances ecological resistance to invasion by exotic annuals (2009, background): “In Western Australian old fields, residues of phosphorus from fertilization correlate most strongly with the persistence of exotic annuals (Standish et al. 2007), but in our study ecosystem soil nitrate rather than phosphorus is most strongly associated with exotic annual abundances (Prober et al.…”
