Good news. Jahama Highland Estates announce #LandscapeScaleRestoration project to quadruple native woodland cover in 10 years via #NaturalRegeneration - a great demo of landowners uniting over a huge area to reduce grazing & establish native woodland at scale in #ScotlandsRainforest👏 buff.ly/PEBvu1C

[3/5] 🐘🌱 #Elephant trails influence #naturalRegeneration similarly to very low-intensity logging: seedling survival is lower on trails. Central African forests may be especially adapted to small disturbances from the presence of #megafauna. #CongoBasin #ForestDynamics

[2/5] 🌱🪵Very low-intensity #logging (<2 trees/ha) temporarily reduced seedling survival, then #naturalRegeneration recovered 4-14 years post logging, indicating that regeneration processes are resilient to small disturbances. #SustainableForestry

The first step of #ancientwoodlandrestoration is to halt further decline by removing the threats to the health and natural diversity of the #Woodlands, supporting it's #NaturalRegeneration.

We visited the Bennel #woodlandlab #naturalregeneration and nice to back at Torr Farm to see how a change in grazing as benefited thd largest #Aspen clone in the South of Scotland, one we collected 10 years ago for our collection.
A small oak sapling grows in front of a massive, mature oak tree. The sapling stands in recently cleared grass and bramble, illuminated by late afternoon light. The old oak’s thick, twisting limbs spread wide above, forming a dense canopy.
A young oak tree, newly uncovered from dense brambles and long grass, growing at the base of a large, mature oak. The scene captures natural regeneration in a rewilding landscape.

As a child in East Cornwall, I witnessed nature’s quiet power-seeing quarried moorland and abandoned mine sites slowly reclaim themselves. Seeing these, evolving landscapes has deeply informed my understanding of nature recovery. #Cornwall #NaturalRestoration #NaturalRegeneration #Rewilding #Nature

From Nané Pedersen's thesis: Natural colonization on abandoned farmland favours native, bird-dispersed, and insect-pollinated species. Loamy soils further enhance these benefits. 🌿 #Biodiversity #Afforestation #NaturalRegeneration

🌳 If left undisturbed, 215 million hectares of forest—larger than Mexico—could naturally regenerate, boosting biodiversity and capturing carbon. Let's protect and let nature heal! 🌱 https://buff.ly/40rDOop #Rewilding #ForestConservation #NaturalRegeneration #ClimateAction #Biodiversity #Nature

@jimpknight yep storify v useful. another question; why are so many #ash trees planted when they self-seed so easily? #naturalregeneration
