Recruitment limitation of forest communities in a degraded Mediterranean landscape (2009, background): “On the other hand, persistence by longevity is the maintenance strategy presumably operating in tree populations, particularly the more long-lived, mesic species such as T. baccata and P. sylvestris (Garcı́a & Zamora 2003).”
Conserving biodiversity under climate change: the rear edge matters. (2005, background): “Instead, the existence of stable rear edges could be particularly common in those plant or animal species whose populations are able to endure long periods without recruitment (by long life span, clonal growth, persistent seed banks etc.; cf. Garcı́a & Zamora 2003).”
Biological Flora of the British Isles: Juniperus communis L. (2007, background): “In extreme climatic environments, such as the short growing season and low winter temperatures of higher altitudes, or severe summer drought in Mediterranean mountains (García & Zamora 2003), the reproduction of juniper declines, and it persists by longevity, reproducing during favourable periods.”
