As long as the forest rent is increasing forest stands are thinned but not finally cut.
Second, increased forest connectivity was not associated to a decrease in the characteristic heterogeneity of Mediterranean landscapes.
Warming will increase forest fires by 30-40%.
Therefore, the climatic variables that increase forest woody detritus production also increase forest detritus decay.
We also evaluated the regional reserve network in relation to forest fragmentation and forest heterogeneity at the landscape level.
The forests near the flat savanna areas are seasonally inundated, increasing the heterogeneity of the forest structure in the study area.
Project failure seems highly correlated with increasing cultural heterogeneity and land/water/tenure disparity.
A value of 0% indicates no observed heterogeneity, and larger values indicate increasing heterogeneity.
The changes in Hillcrest and in the composition of the Rockland County communities nearby reflect the increasing heterogeneity of suburban areas once assumed to be overwhelmingly white.
Larger values of I show increasing heterogeneity.
