Hellenic Beech Forests Database (Hell-Beech-DB) [PDF]
The Hellenic Beech Forests Database (GIVD ID EU-GR-007) includes releves dominated or co-dominated by Fagus sylvatica s.l. It includes almost all published releves from the northeast, north-central and east-central floristic regions of Greece. Ca. 50 unpublished releves have been already entered and more than 300 new releves are going to be entered ...

Soil erodibility in European mountain beech forests [PDF]
Forests in Europe are currently not endangered by soil erosion. However, this can change with climate change or with intensified forest management practices. Using a newly established network of plots in beech forests across Europe, the aims of this study were to (i) distinguish soil properties and erodibility indices in relation to bedrock, (ii ...

Ice storm effects on the canopy structure of a northern hardwood forest after 8 years [PDF]
Ice storms can cause severe damage to forest canopies, resulting in differential mortality among tree species and size classes and leading to long-lasting changes in the vertical structure and composition of the forest.

Nitrous oxide consumption potentials of well-drained forest soils in Southern Québec, Canada. [PDF]
To establish the major controls on N2O consumption by forest soils, we conducted laboratory incubations of 16 samples from four soil types, two organic and two mineral, varying in overlying forest vegetation (sugar maple, American beech and eastern ...
