The evolution of Madagascan tree ferns as a rainforest-specific model family, integrating results from bioclimatic niche analysis with a dated phylogenetic framework, and proposal of an evolutionary scenario of large island endemic clades. Showing that Madagascar’s extant tree fern diversity springs from three distinct ancestors independently colonising Madagascar during the Miocene.

The first global analysis attempting to explicitly investigate the contribution of wood quality to decomposition. Under a common climate interspecific differences in wood traits are found to affect woody debris decomposition patterns.

An examination of the scaling of the leaf xylem in ten temperate oak species to test general models of plant vascular architecture, based on scaling of pipe diameters in order to minimize hydraulic resistance within the xylem, which have neglected to consider the variations in leaf hydraulic properties.

An exploration of the competitive and facilitative effects of two tree fern species, Cyatheasmithii and Dicksoniasquarrosa, on the epiphytic regeneration of tree species in nutrient-rich alluvial forests in New Zealand as an alternative to forest floor regeneration where competition is greater.

Use of a classic conceptual framework – the shifting mosaic of patches model – to explore the ways in which competitive thinning and disturbance influence tree-size distributions, and to consider the effects of temporal variability in disturbance frequency on the size structure of forests.
