Giant sequoia (Sequoiadendron giganteum) in the UK: carbon storage potential and growth rates.
Giant sequoias ( ) are some of the UK’s largest trees, despite only being introduced in the mid-nineteenth century. There are an estimated half a million giant sequoias and closely related coastal redwoods ( ) in the UK. Given the recent interest in planting more trees, partly due to their... -

Late pre-Hispanic fog oasis settlements and long-term human occupation on the Peruvian central coast from satellite imagery.
Fog oases ( ) present pockets of verdant vegetation within the arid coastal desert of Andean South America and archaeological excavation within some of the oases has revealed a long history of human exploitation of these landscapes. Yet lomas settlements are under-represented in archaeological datasets due to their tendency to... -

Plant conservation in space, time and a changing world: forecasting the fate of Coffea arabica in Ethiopia.
We are facing an ever-increasing environmental crisis on our planet, with multiple threats from humankind. Industrialisation, deforestation, overpopulation and exploitation of our natural resources is driving species to extinction and changing the environment we live in. We need to plan for the future in order to adapt or mitigate these...Moat, Justin

Palaeo-precipitation is a major determinant of palm species richness patterns across Madagascar: a tropical biodiversity hotspot.
The distribution of rainforest in many regions across the Earth was strongly affected by Pleistocene ice ages. However, the extent to which these dynamics are still important for modern-day biodiversity patterns within tropical biodiversity hotspots has not been assessed. We employ a comprehensive dataset of Madagascan palms (Arecaceae) and climate...Rakotoarinivo, Mijoro ; Blach-Overgaard, Anne ; Baker, William J. ; Dransfield, John ; Moat, Justin …
