Testing applied nucleation as a strategy to facilitate tropical forest recovery (2013, background): “Because of high variability in tree growth rates, mean tree height and cover development overlapped substantially between planting years (Holl et al. 2011).”
High spatial resolution three-dimensional mapping of vegetation spectral dynamics using computer vision (2013, background): “…study area size (Erdody & Moskal, 2010), representing a signi ﬁ cant barrier to wide-spread application, especially for local environmental management and in ecological ﬁ eld studies based on annual or more frequent observations at numerous small sites or sampling plots (e.g., Holl et al., 2011).”
Direct seeding of late-successional trees to restore tropical montane forest (2011, methodology): “Measurements on the later-successional trees used to establish the experimental plantations in this study show that foliar N was related to growth of the later-successional species (Terminalia and Vochysia) (Holl et al., 2010).”
Contemporary forest restoration: A review emphasizing function (2014, background): “…used in restoring pastures using non-rooted hardwood cuttings of easy-to-root species, commonly called stakes or poles (Zahawi, 2008; Zahawi and Holl, 2009; Holl et al., 2011), recognizing that these scattered trees in natural woodlands and savannas are keystone structures (Manning et al., 2006).”
Controlling invasive plant species in ecological restoration: A global review (2020, background): “…for fodder throughout the Neotropics, are highly competitive and quickly produce biomass which stimulates fires and hinders the growth of both planted and regenerating native trees (Campoe, Stape, & Mendes, 2010; Holl et al., 2011; Pilon, Buisson, & Durigan, 2017; Sobanski & Marques, 2014).”
Priority effects and ecological restoration (2020, background): “In Costa Rica, planting tree seedlings in small patches has been proposed as a good alternative restoration method that facilitates forest recovery (Holl et al. 2011; Zahawi et al. 2013).”
