Above‐ versus below‐ground competitive effects and responses of a guild of temperate tree species (2009, background): “Given the relatively limited dispersal distances of most tree species (Ribbens et al . 1994; Clark et al . 1999; LePage et al . 2000; Greene et al . 2004), the spatial distribution of seed trees will have strong effects on the distribution and abundance of regeneration.”
Interspecific variation in susceptibility to windthrow as a function of tree size and storm severity for northern temperate tree species (2001, background): “While the trees frequently lose some portion of their canopy during storms (personal observations), the surviving branches provide a ready seed source, and the dispersal of those seeds should be particularly effective given the thinning of the canopy (LePage et al. 2000).”
Heterogeneity influences spatial patterns and demographics in forest stands (2008, background): “2006) assured sufficient seedling numbers even under homogeneous canopy cover (LePage et al. 2000; Coates 2002), but seedling survival and subsequent recruitment was rather abiotically determined as a function of ‘lucky’ random arrival.”
Recruitment limitation in forests: Lessons from an unprecedented mountain pine beetle epidemic (2008, methodology): “In part, this can be explained by the superior ability of true fir species, compared to spruce and pine, to regenerate on the moss forest floors that dominated all study sites (Day, 1964; Cui, 1991; Wright et al., 1998; LePage et al., 2000).”
An evaluation of alternative dispersal functions for trees (2004, methodology): “We follow LePage et al. (2000) with two exceptions.”
Non-commercial Research and Educational Use including without Limitation Use in Instruction at Your Institution, Sending It to Specific Colleagues That You Know, and Providing a Copy to Your Institution's Administrator. All Other Uses, Reproduction and Distribution, including without Limitation Comm (2005, unknown): “(1) in which all the dipole–dipole couplings and chemical shielding parameters are varied.”
PATHWAYS IN OLD‐FIELD SUCCESSION TO WHITE PINE: SEED RAIN, SHADE, AND CLIMATE EFFECTS (2005, background): “Current models of forest dynamics bring together spatial variation in seed rain and environmental conditions (Pacala et al. 1993, LePage et al. 2000).”
Seedling recruitment in a hurricane‐driven tropical forest: light limitation, density‐dependence and the spatial distribution of parent trees (2005, methodology): “…(or ‘kernels’), based on measurements of seed rain or seedling abundance at a set of sample locations and a map of the spatial distribution and sizes of potential parent trees in the vicinities of the sample locations (e.g. Ribbens et al. 1994; Clark et al. 1998, 1999; LePage et al. 2000).”
Role of dispersal in the recruitment limitation of neotropical pioneer species (2002, background): “More accurate predictions of recruitment patterns will also require more detailed descriptions of withingap microsites (Lepage et al. 2000).”
Species resistance and community response to wind disturbance regimes in northern temperate forests (2006, methodology): “The substrate model used in this investigation is derived from LePage et al. (2000) and described in detail in Papaik et al. (2005).”
A neighborhood analysis of canopy tree competition : effects of shading versus crowding (2004, methodology): “At each site, a central transect 50–350 m long was established , and LePage et al. (2000) recorded the species, diameter at breast height (DBH), and location of each tree with a DBH ≥15 cm within 20 m of the center line of the transect and in a 20-m radius semicircle at the end of each transect.”
NEIGHBORHOOD ANALYSES OF SMALL‐MAMMAL DYNAMICS: IMPACTS ON SEED PREDATION AND SEEDLING ESTABLISHMENT (2004, background): “These include seed dispersal and seedling establishment (Ribbens et al. 1994, Clark et al. 1998, LePage et al. 2000), shading and competition for light (Canham 1989, Canham et al. 1994, Finzi and Canham 2000), and tree species effects on soil properties and nutrient availability (e.g., Finzi et al.…”
Establishment of tree seedlings in the understory of restoration plantations: natural regeneration and enrichment plantings (2016, result): “Our results are similar to those found by other investigations carried out in natural remnants, where seedling survival was favored by higher canopy openness and, consequently, light availability (LePage et al. 2000; Bellingham & Richardson 2006).”
The reduction of organic-layer depth by wildfire in the North American boreal forest and its effect on tree recruitment by seed (2007, methodology): “While a model such as SORTIE currently uses nominal seedbed categories (LePage et al. 2000), these could easily be replaced with interval-scale classes of organic-matter depth.”
