Urban plant species patterns are highly driven by density and function of built-up areas
S Godefroid, N Koedam - Landscape ecology, 2007 - Springer
This paper aims to assess the relative importance of the type of built-up area in structuring

Microclimate through space and time: microclimatic variation at the edge of regeneration forests over daily, yearly and decadal time scales
A major aim of sustainable forest management is the maintenance or recolonisation of
harvested areas by species that were present pre-disturbance. Forest influence (a type of …
