Climate change is resha** global vegetation through its impacts on plant mortality, but
recruitment creates the next generation of plants and will determine the structure and …

Forest ecology traditionally focuses on plant growth and survival, leaving seed production as
a major demographic process lacking a framework for how it will be affected by global …

Predator satiation is the most commonly tested hypothesis that explains the evolutionary
advantages of masting. It proposes that masting benefits plant reproduction by reducing the …

Large-scale global reforestation goals have been proposed to help mitigate climate change
and provide other ecosystem services. To explore reforestation potential in the United …

Many plants benefit from synchronous year-to-year variation in seed production, called
masting. Masting benefits plants because it increases the efficiency of pollination and …

Climatically controlled allocation to reproduction is a key mechanism by which climate
influences tree growth and may explain lagged correlations between climate and growth …

Large interannual variation in seed production, called masting, is very common in wind-
pollinated tree populations and has profound implications for the dynamics of forest …

The world is spatially autocorrelated. Both abiotic and biotic properties are more similar
among neighboring than distant locations, and their temporal co‐fluctuations also decrease …

Significant gaps remain in understanding the response of plant reproduction to
environmental change. This is partly because measuring reproduction in long‐lived plants …

Climate change is altering patterns of seed production worldwide with consequences for
population recruitment and migration potential. For the many species that regenerate …
