• Facilitating natural regeneration in Saccharum spontaneum (L.) grasslands within the Panama Canal Watershed: effects of tree species and tree structure on vegetation recruitment patterns (2004, background): “experience more rapid regeneration (Ashton et al., 1997; Carnevale and Montagnini, 2002; Cruz, 1988; Foster and Janson, 1985; Guariguata et al., 1995; Garwood, 1983; Keenan et al., 1997; Kuusipalo et al., 1995; Nepstad et al., 1991; Otsamo, 2000; Parrotta, 1993, 1995; Parrotta et al., 1997; Tucker a”
• Diversity of naturally-regenerated native woody species in forest plantations in the Ethiopian highlands (2001, background): “Recent research on tropical forest plantations indicates that plantations may enhance the recruitment, establishment and succession of native woody species by functioning as foster ecosystems (Parrotta 1992, 1995, Lugo et al. 1993, Geldenhuys 1997, Otsamo 2000, Viisteensaari et al. 2000).”
• Vegetation structure, species diversity, and ecosystem processes as measures of restoration success (2005, background): “Woody seedling recruitment was probably influenced by the decrease in herbaceous cover in the reforested site, due to a decrease in belowground root competition and above ground physical barriers (Horvitz and Schemske, 1994; Otsamo, 2000; Hooper et al., 2002).”
• Tropical forest recovery: legacies of human impact and natural disturbances (2003, background): “Shading by plantation species suppresses grasses and ferns that may impede initial tree colonization (Otsamo 2000; Ashton et al. 2001).”
• Can Invasive Species Facilitate Native Species? Evidence of How, When, and Why These Impacts Occur (2006, background): “For example, fast growing non-native trees facilitate native seedlings in tropical forests (Otsamo 2000).”
• INVASION BY A N2-FIXING TREE ALTERS FUNCTION AND STRUCTURE IN WET LOWLAND FORESTS OF HAWAII (2005, background): “It grows well on a variety of soil types, including degraded sites (Otsamo 2000) and acidic or nutrient-poor soils (DeBell et al. 1989, Panjaitan et al. 1993), and is among the fastest growing trees in Hawaii (Walters 1971).”
• Regeneration of native plant species in restored forests on degraded lands in Singapore (2006, background): “Numerous studies on natural forest regeneration under plantations or restoration plantings report colonization dominated by small-seeded, bird or bat dispersed species of early to intermediate successional stage and the absence of large-seeded taxa of late successional vegetation (Nepstad et al., 19”
