May 24, 2017 · Areas with scattered trees support greater levels of biodiversity than open areas, as well as communities that are more similar to those inhabiting habitat patches. Scattered trees can be regarded as keystone structures for vertebrates, arthropods and terrestrial plants in landscapes world-wide.

Dec 1, 2017 · The landowners select scattered trees based on their shading capability, maintaining a highly diverse community of trees. • The preference for large trees and clearing of small ones differentiate forest patches and scattered tree communities. •

Oct 9, 2017 · Scattered trees (isolated remnant and planted trees; Manning, Fischer, & Lindenmayer, 2006) are prominent features of human-modified landscapes worldwide and have been identified as “keystone ecological structures.”

In this paper, scattered tree ecosystems are categorized into three groups for the purposes of discussion: (1) natural (such as savannas), (2) cultural (such as wood-pastures), and (3) recently modified (such as remnant paddock trees in south-eastern Australia) (Fig. 1.

Oct 1, 2006 · Analogous to the keystone species concept (reviewed by Power et al., 1996), scattered trees are keystone structures because they have a disproportionate effect on the ecosystem relative to the small area occupied and low biomass of any given tree and the low density of scattered trees collectively.

Dec 1, 2017 · We assessed regeneration, distance of propagules source, grass cover, microclimate, seed rain, and soil compaction under scattered tree crowns and in samples in the pasture without scattered...
scattered trees provide distinct microclimates and unique structural elements like hollows and woody debris (Manning, Gibbons, Fischer, Oliver, & Lindenmayer, 2012; Tews etal., 2004). At a landscape scale, scattered trees increase spatial heterogeneity and connectiv-ity that can aid species dispersal (Fischer & Lindenmayer, 2002b;
