In this book, we explore these questions for assemblages of forest trees, shrubs, and understory herbs at spatial scales ranging from small plots to large forest dynamics plots, at temporal scales ranging from seasons to centuries, in both temperate and tropical regions, and across rural-to-urban gradients in land use UR - https://mdpi.com/books/pdfview/book/1463 UR - https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/42826 ER -
