Abstract:
The pre-Cenozoic bryophyte fossil record is significantly sparser than that of vascular plants or Cenozoic bryophytes. This situation has been traditionally attributed to a hypothesized low preservation potential of the plants. However, instances of excellent pre-Cenozoic bryophyte preservation and the results of experiments simulating fossilization contradict this traditional interpretation, suggesting that bryophytes have good preservation potential.

Bryophytes are dominant components of boreal forest understories and play a large role in regulating soil microclimate and nutrient cycling. Therefore, shifts in bryophyte communities have the potential to affect boreal forests’ ecosystem processes. We investigated how bryophyte communities varied in 83 forest stands in interior Alaska that ranged in age (since fire) from 8 to 163 years and had canopies dominated by deciduous broadleaf (Populus tremuloides Michx. or Betula neoalaskana Sarg.) or coniferous trees (Picea mariana Mill B.S.P.).

Abstract:
Bryophytes are a group of plants generally with small sizes and spores as generative reproduction. There are three main groups of Bryophytes: liverworts or hepatics (Marchantiophyta), mosses (Bryophyta), and hornworts (Anthocerophyta). They are found in almost all ecosystems. Ecopark Cibinong Science Center-Botanical Garden (CSC-BG) is a lowland ecosystem protection area located in industrial cities. The bryophytes species that were carried out in 2009 and 2010 are inadequate. Re-exploration activity was carried out from June 2018 until January 2019 in all blocks of Ecopark. This study aims to

Abstract:
Epiphytic bryophytes are an important component in terms of the diversity and functioning of montane forests known as biodiversity hotspots. Bryophytes are highly dependent on their external environments because they are sensitive to environmental changes related to disturbance, fragmentation, air pollution, and climate change. The richness and composition of bryophytes in remnants of primary and secondary forests were analyzed, where the richness and cover were recorded on trunk bases of 120 trees. Changes in species richness and diversity were analyzed using generalized linear models (GLMs),

Bryophytes occurring in riparian systems where they are seasonally submerged or inundated are poorly documented in many parts of the world. The actual number of rheophytic bryophytes remains speculative but we believe the number could easily exceed 500 taxa.

Animal dispersal influences the community structure and diversity of a wide variety of plant taxa, yet the potential effects of animal dispersal in bryophytes (hornworts, liverworts, and mosses) is poorly understood. In many communities, birds use bryophyte-abundant niche space for foraging and gathering nest material, suggesting that birds may play a role in bryophyte dispersal. As highly motile animals with long migratory routes, birds potentially provide a means for both local and long-distance bryophyte dispersal in a manner that differs greatly from passive, aerial spore dispersal.

Forests play crucial roles in regulating the amount and timing of streamflow through the water storage function.

Estimates of solute efflux from stem segments of canopy bryophytes reached 80.1 kg ha−1 year−1 for K, 1.4 kg ha−1 year−1 for P, and 11.8 kg hal−1 year−1 for N during experimental rewetting episodes.
