- Forest Resources Assessment of 2015 shows positive global trends but forest loss and degradation persist in poor tropical countries (2015, background): “Forests are ever more scarce, contested, and valuable, and forest landscapes are ever more diverse and novel as they react to different societal needs and occur in changing environmental conditions (Lugo, 2009).”
- Novel forests maintain ecosystem processes after the decline of native tree species (2012, background): “…forming novel ecosystems (i.e., variously called ‘‘new,’’ ‘‘no-analog,’’ or ‘‘emerging’’ ecosystems; Lugo and Helmer 2004, Hobbs et al. 2006, Mascaro et al. 2008, Seastedt et al. 2008, Hobbs et al. 2009, Lugo 2009, Martinez 2010, Martinez et al. 2010, Bridgewater et al. 2011, Chai and Tanner 2011).”
