Urban Tree Growth and Drought Responses Show Evidence of Climate Resilience [PDF]
Urban trees face increasing risks from climate change, including drought and heatwaves, which threaten their growth and survival. By studying 10 tree species across seven Australian cities, we found that local climate strongly influences tree growth, and that some species are well adapted to urban climates.

Strong scale-dependent relationships between fine-root function and soil properties uncovered with spatially coupled sampling. [PDF]
Summary Substantial fine‐root trait variation is found at fine spatial scales but rarely linked to edaphic variation. We assessed the spatial scales of variation in fine‐root traits and adjacent soils using a spatially coupled, nested sampling scheme along a fertility gradient in a seasonally dry tropical forest tree, Handroanthus ochraceus.

Restricted Dispersal in the Late Successional Forest Tree Species <i>Nothofagus Pumilio</i>: Consequences Under Global Change. [PDF]
We aim to uncover the current and historic effective dispersal distances and characterize fine‐scale genetic structure in the forest tree species Nothofagus pumilio. Short seed dispersal distances mean N. pumilio distribution expansion capacity may be limited, especially in the context of global change.

Caracterización de ecotonos entre biomas de bosque y biomas abiertos en un área protegida en Uruguay
La teoría de Estados Alternativos de Biomas (EAB) contribuye a explicar la presencia de biomas abiertos (pastizales, arbustales) en ambientes suficientemente cálidos y húmedos para el desarrollo de biomas de bosque.

Análisis cariológico de ocho especies de encinos (Quercus, Fagaceae) en México
Karyotype analyses of eight species of the Quercus genus were performed and are reported here. Five species (Q. candicans, Q. crassifolia, Q. elliptica, Q. hintonii and Q. urbanii) belong to the Lobatae section and three (Q. frutex, Q.
