Introduced pathogen microorganisms are important drivers of ecosystem change. This paper highlights the impact non-native mildew multi-species complex on natural regeneration dynamics pedunculate oak (Quercus robur). Pedunculate is a European keystone tree species, hosting great amount biodiversity, but its future role in (near-)natural forests uncertain due to lack regeneration. We reviewed historical and recent ecological, pathological forestry literature topics related success advanced...

ABSTRACT The prevailing paradigm about the Quaternary ecological and evolutionary history of Central European ecosystems is that they were repeatedly impoverished by regional extinctions most species during glacial periods, followed massive recolonizations from southern eastern refugia interglacial periods. Recent literature partially contradicts this view provides evidence to re‐evaluate Postglacial Recolonization Hypothesis develop an alternative one. We examined long‐term flora Carpathian...

The high nature conservation value of floodplain ecosystems is severely threatened by invasive alien species. Besides adversely affecting native biodiversity, these species also pose a major threat from wider socio-ecological perspective (e.g. 'roughness' increases flood risk). Finding options to control dense shrub layers consisting therefore priority for multipurpose management. We studied cattle grazing impacts on the cover, composition and diversity herb in poplar plantations along Tamiš...

The first version of the map Hungarian vegetation-based landscape regions were prepared at scale 1: 200,000 (1 km or higher resolution). primary goal was to provide an exact background for presentation and evaluation data MÉTA database. Secondly, we intended give up-to-date detailed division Hungary with a comprehensive nomenclature regions. Regions primarily defined on basis their present zonal vegetation, dominant extrazonal edaphic vegetation. Where this not possible, abiotic factors that...

Traditional habitat knowledge, like the classification of folk habitats and how people partition their landscape into habitats, is an emerging but still understudied part traditional ecological knowledge. Our objectives were to reconstruct partitioning these by Mongolian herders in Northern Mongolia compare it with other Hemisphere boreal-temperate classifications.The study area located Seruun Gilad (Khuvsugul province) belongs mountain forest steppe Khangai region (dominated meadow steppes...

Civilizations, including ancient ones, have shaped global ecosystems in many ways through coevolution of landscapes and humans. However, the cultural legacies lost civilizations are rarely considered conservation Eurasian steppe biome. We used a data set containing more than 1000 records on localities, land cover, protection status, values related to steppic burial mounds (kurgans); we evaluated how these iconic widespread landmarks can contribute grassland steppes, which is one most...

In this paper, eleven alien plant species are presented, two of them reported for the fi rst time in Republic Moldova (Euphorbia maculata, Gaillardia pulchella), one has so far been only from a botanical garden (Oenothera glazioviana), and eight were previously known few localities (Amaranthus powelii, Centaurea diff usa, Grindelia squarrosa, Gypsophila perfoliata, Ruta graveolens, Silphium perfoliatum, Sorghum halepense Tragus racemosus).We lso present an indigenous which behaves as...

Abstract In the absence of primeval floodplain forests, near-natural remnants are key references for close-to-nature forestry and nature conservation. Old-growth forest characteristics (OGCs) were quantified in 16 managed (rotation or selection) abandoned semi-natural forests by taking snapshot inventories structural features. Principal component analysis revealed a short gradient from closed-canopy stands dominated large trees (mainly oaks) hornbeams, with less deadwood, to older more gaps,...

Numerous recent studies have focused on botanical values and their relations with habitat conditions in light of landscape-use history. In the northernmost part Nógrád County (Hungary), however, there has been no such kind research, contrary to southern areas this county. Our aim was explore one-time vineyards Karancsberény Karancslapujtő villages County, as well get know history landscape use, register occurrences protected rare plants, condition habitats under succession after abandonment....

Abstract Civilisations including ancient ones, have shaped the global ecosystems in many ways through a co-evolution of landscapes and humans. However, cultural legacies lost civilisations are seldom considered conservation. Here using continental-scale dataset containing over 1,000 data records on localities, land cover, protection status values related to steppic burial mounds (so-called ‘kurgans’), we evaluated how these iconic widespread landmarks can contribute grassland conservation...

In general, the importance of wet grasslands increased, significance marshes, stubble fields, vegetation along linear elements, second growth on hay meadows, wood-pastures forests decreased over time. Approximately half habitats not typical pasture grasslands, functioned as supplementary during droughts, autumn winter. The number habitat types per month site dropped, herding substantially, in particular case...
