Sentence examples for stable forests from inspiring English sources

The multivariate analysis (PAHC) validated our forest classification with dense, stable forests (pattern III) and regenerating forests (pattern II) representing two relatively clear distinctive groups (Fig. 3).

Economic constraints favor the conversion of Picea forests on steep slopes into stable forests for conservation, which will also produce extra climate services by C sequestration.

The interior is dominated by black spruce (Picea mariana) and white spruce (P. glauca), which form the climax forest (a stable forest community that has adapted to its natural environmental succession).

Stable forest or climax vegetation communities are formed by the replacement and development of plant communities.

Red is forest loss during this time period, while green is stable forest (i.e. forest present in both 1990 and 2000).

The adjusted area of the stable forest class was 41%, which is close to the official estimate (40%) of forest cover from the Forestry Department [20].

The results find that pine shows locally resilient responses driven mainly by factors related to fire effects (presence of unburned patches) and the characteristics of the pre-fire vegetation (i.e. stable forest areas).

Whilst this is encouraging, other studies suggest that forests and their canopies may show non-linear responses to degradation and may enter positive climate-disturbance feedbacks leading to new stable forest regimes with more open canopies and new sets of species once critical thresholds have been surpassed (Enquist and Enquist 2011; Trumbore et al. 2015).
