Aquatic invertebrate communities in tank bromeliads: how well do classic ecological patterns apply? (2014)
Journal Article
Jocque, M., & Field, R. (2014). Aquatic invertebrate communities in tank bromeliads: how well do classic ecological patterns apply?. Hydrobiologia, 730(1), https://doi.org/10.1007/s10750-014-1831-7

Tank bromeliads (Bromeliaceae) often occur in high densities in the Neotropics and represent a key freshwater habitat in montane forests, housing quite complex invertebrate communities. We tested the extent to which there are species richness–altitud... Read More about Aquatic invertebrate communities in tank bromeliads: how well do classic ecological patterns apply?.

Forest disturbance and regeneration: a mosaic of discrete gap dynamics and open matrix regimes? (2014)
Journal Article
Blackburn, G. A., Abd Latif, Z., & Boyd, D. S. (2014). Forest disturbance and regeneration: a mosaic of discrete gap dynamics and open matrix regimes?. Journal of Vegetation Science, 25(6), https://doi.org/10.1111/jvs.12201

Question: Recent research in boreal forest suggests that an ‘open matrix’ model may be more appropriate than the traditional model of spatially discrete gap dynamics for describing forest disturbance and regeneration, but what is the evidence from te...
