Temporal Development and Regeneration Dynamics of Restored Urban Forests
Temporal Development and Regeneration Dynamics of Restored Urban Forests By Katherine de Silva A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Masters in Ecology & Biodiversity School of Biological Sciences Faculty of Sciences Victoria University of Wellington October 2019 Supervisors: Stephen Hartley. Director of the Centre of Biodiversity & Restoration Ecology, Victoria University of Wellington Kiri Joy Wallace. Postdoctoral Fellow, Environmental Research Institute, University of Waikato. Katherine de Silva: Temporal Development and Regeneration Dynamics of Restored Urban Forests, © October 2019. 2 ABSTRACT Urban forest restoration programmes are a key tool used to initiate, re-create or accelerate the succession of forest species; improving ecosystem services, function, resilience and biodiversity. Succession is a temporal shift in species dominance driven by abiotic and biotic influences, but over decadal timescales the trajectory and success of restoration plantings in degraded urban environments can be hindered. To facilitate the successful reconstruction of forest ecosystems from scratch, an understanding of the temporal patterns in planted forest development, dynamics of seedling regeneration and dominant drivers of seedling diversity is required. Using a chronosequence approach, permanent plots were established at 44 restored urban forests aged 5 to 59 years since initial plantings took place, across five New Zealand cities between Wellington and Invercargill. Vegetation surveys were undertaken and data on micro- climate were collected. This study examined the 1) temporal dynamics of restored urban forest development and seedling regeneration and 2) dominant drivers of seedling regeneration. Data were analysed using linear regression models, breakpoint analysis and mixed-effects modelling. Early forest development (<20 years) exhibited the most changes in canopy composition and structure, forest floor dynamics, seedling community and microclimate. -
Development of Community-Based Monitoring Methods for Coastal Dunes of the Bay of Plenty Region
Development of community-based monitoring methods for coastal dunes of the Bay of Plenty Region David Bergin and Michael Bergin Environmental Restoration Ltd June 2018 Papamoa College students surveying vegetation cover on the foredunes along a transect, Papamoa Beach A contract report prepared for the Bay of Plenty Regional Council by Environmental Restoration Ltd. This project has been undertaken in collaboration with the Coastal Restoration Trust of New Zealand and their research partners. For the Bay of Plenty coastal dunes, monitoring methods were developed with assistance and in collaboration with Chris Ward, Shay Dean, Courtney Bell and Hamish Dean of the Bay of Plenty Regional Council. 1 Scope and content of this report The Bay of Plenty Regional Council (BOPRC) was one of the first councils to adopt a community‐ based approach to dune management in New Zealand following programmes that were initiated widely in New South Wales in the 1980s and expanded to other parts of Australia (Dahm et al. 2005). Extensive programmes now operate in many regions throughout New Zealand. In the Bay of Plenty region there are currently community Coast Care groups located from Waihi Beach in the west to Whangaparaoa on the east of the region involved in various aspects of dune restoration and management (Figure 1). They are formed by partnerships between the local community, iwi, district councils, the Department of Conservation and BOPRC working together to protect and restore beaches and coastal dunes (www.boprc.govt.nz/residents‐and‐ communities/care‐groups/coast‐care/). The Coast Care groups around the BOP region are involved in a wide range of activities to help protect the coastline, restore natural dune form and function, and are increasing awareness of coastal hazards and climate change in local communities. -

Patterns of flammability across the vascular plant phylogeny, with special emphasis on the genus Dracophyllum A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of philosophy at Lincoln University by Xinglei Cui Lincoln University 2020 Abstract of a thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of philosophy. Abstract Patterns of flammability across the vascular plant phylogeny, with special emphasis on the genus Dracophyllum by Xinglei Cui Fire has been part of the environment for the entire history of terrestrial plants and is a common disturbance agent in many ecosystems across the world. Fire has a significant role in influencing the structure, pattern and function of many ecosystems. Plant flammability, which is the ability of a plant to burn and sustain a flame, is an important driver of fire in terrestrial ecosystems and thus has a fundamental role in ecosystem dynamics and species evolution. However, the factors that have influenced the evolution of flammability remain unclear. -

Two Decades of Demography Reveals That Seed and Seedling Transitions Limit Population Persistence in a Translocated Shrub
Annals of Botany 114: 85–96, 2014 doi:10.1093/aob/mcu082, available online at www.aob.oxfordjournals.org Two decades of demography reveals that seed and seedling transitions limit population persistence in a translocated shrub C. L. Gross* and D. Mackay Ecosystem Management, University of New England, Armidale, NSW 2351, Australia * For correspondence. E-mail [email protected] Downloaded from https://academic.oup.com/aob/article-abstract/114/1/85/2768988 by guest on 02 October 2018 Received: 9 December 2013 Returned for revision: 10 March 2014 Accepted: 25 March 2014 Published electronically: 20 May 2014 † Background and Aims Olearia flocktoniae is an endangered shrub that was passively translocated from its natural ecosystem, where it has since gone extinct. This study aimed to determine sensitivities vital to populations persisting in human-created areas. † Methods Population colonization, longevity and extinction were investigated over 20 years using 133 populations. Seed-bank longevity was determined from germination trials of seeds exhumed from extinct and extant sites via a 10-year glasshouse trial and by in situ sowing experiments. From 27 populations, 98 cohorts were followed and matrix models of transitions from seeds to adults were used to evaluate the intrinsic rate of population growth against disturbance histories. Ten populations (38 cohorts) with different disturbance histories were used to evaluate sensitivities in vital rates. † Key Results Most populations had few individuals (30) and were transient (,5 years above ground). The intrinsic population growth ratewas rarely .1 and all but two populations were extinct at year 20. Seeds were short-lived in situ.
