- Active or Passive Forest Restoration? Assessing Restoration Alternatives with Avian Foraging Behavior (2011, background): “All species are native or naturalized to the region and are widely used in tropical forest restoration (Nichols et al. 2001; Carpenter et al. 2004).”
- Allelopathy: a tool for weed management in forest restoration (2012, background): “For example, the intentional conversion of tropical forest to pastures of exotic grasses to raise cattle led to the subsequent colonization and spread of exotic C4 grasses throughout disturbed areas in the new world tropics (Carpenter et al. 2004; Condit et al. 2001; D’Antonio and Vitousek 1992; Par”
- Direct seeding of late-successional trees to restore tropical montane forest (2011, background): “Previous studies show that N-fixing trees, and Inga in particular, have enhanced seedling growth beneath their canopies (Carpenter et al., 2004b; Nichols et al., 2001).”
- Establishment of native tropical timber trees in monoculture and mixed-species plantations: Small-scale effects on tree performance and insect herbivory (2011, background): “C. odorata is a light demanding, long-lived pioneer that tolerates shade only temporarily (Carpenter et al., 2004).”
- Planting Seedlings in Tree Islands Versus Plantations as a Large‐Scale Tropical Forest Restoration Strategy (2011, methodology): “Species-Specific Differences To increase the applicability of our study, we selected species that are widely used for reforestation and agroforestry in Central America (Butterfield & Espinoza 1995; Carpenter et al. 2004a; Calvo-Alvarado et al. 2007) and survival rates were accordingly high.”
- Litterfall Dynamics Under Different Tropical Forest Restoration Strategies in Costa Rica (2011, methodology): “Species selection was based on: (1) high survival in prior studies in the region (4 80%), rapid height growth rates (1–2 m/yr) and broad canopy cover development in the first few years; and (2) availability in local nurseries (Nichols et al. 2001, Carpenter et al. 2004, Holl et al. in press).”
