Protection gaps and restoration opportunities for primary forests in Europe
Aims Primary forests are critical for forest biodiversity and provide key ecosystem services. In
Europe, these forests are particularly scarce and it is unclear whether they are sufficiently …

EU-Trees4F, a dataset on the future distribution of European tree species
Abstract We present “EU-Trees4F”, a dataset of current and future potential distributions of
67 tree species in Europe at 10 km spatial resolution. We provide both climatically suitable …

Contributions of Quaternary botany to modern ecology and biogeography
HJB Birks - Plant Ecology & Diversity, 2019 - Taylor & Francis
ABSTRACT Quaternary (last 2.6 million years) botany involves studying plant megafossils
(eg tree stumps), macrofossils (eg seeds, leaves), and microfossils (eg pollen, spores) …
