Allometric patterns of below-ground biomass in Mediterranean grasslands
Plant Biosystems - An International Journal Dealing with all Aspects of Plant Biology, 2011 Abstract Below-ground biomass might play an important role in the persistence of grasslands. The summertime water stress of Mediterranean grasslands very much accounts for annual plants in their communities. These plants die off in summer, and the soil seed bank ensures the grasslands' recovery every autumn.

Above and below ground biomass patterns in arid lands
Ecological Modelling, 2009 Abstract Regular vegetation patterns have been observed in many arid zones around the word. This particular spontaneous arrangement of the vegetation optimizes the use of the scarce water resources and could be imitated to restore vulnerable ecosystems; at the same time, the patterns of vegetation act as an early warning signal of the fact that ...

Age-related equations for above- and below-ground biomass of a Eucalyptus hybrid in Congo [PDF]
Forest Ecology and Management, 2005 A complete set of equations for below- and above-ground biomass of a natural Eucalyptus hybrid in Congo was constructed. Heteroscedasticity of data was taken into account by fitting weighted non-linear regressions using maximum likelihood estimates. Stand age was introduced as a complementary variable in the equations for a majority of above-ground ...

Above‐ and below‐ground plant biomass response to experimental warming in northern Alaska
Applied Vegetation Science, 2010AbstractQuestion:Does experimental warming, designed to simulate future warming of the Arctic, change the biomass allocation and mycorrhizal infection of tundra plants?Location:High Arctic tundra near Barrow, Alaska, USA (71°18′N 156°40′W).Methods:Above and below ground plant biomass of all species was harvested following 3–4 yr of 1‐2°C of ...

Polyethylene composites made from below-ground miscanthus biomass
Industrial Crops and Products, 2017 Miscanthus is a perennial grass which may be interesting for the composite industrial sector. When the cycle of the crop comes to the end, the biomass below ground need to be valorized. One never-studied topic is to evaluate its potential valorization as composites.

Profiling the below ground biomass of an emergent macrophyte using an adapted ingrowth core method
Aquatic Botany, 2013In the context of our work exploring the role of Sparganium erectum as a physical ecosystem engineer, we aimed to test our hypothesis that the root and rhizome biomass of this species would be largely confined to the uppermost sediment layers, thereby having the effect of reinforcing newly deposited material and facilitating the growth of in-channel ...

Journal of Ecology, 2019 Abstract While tree diversity has been proven to enhance above‐ground forest biomass in many instances, the effect on below‐ground biomass has often been neutral, or even negative. This raises the questions of whether above‐ground results are the product of a reduced allocation below‐ground in more diverse forests, which could imply a more efficient ...

Primary production and biomass on a Dutch salt marsh: emphasis on the below-ground component
Plant Ecology, 1987The primary production and below-ground biomass of angiosperms were measured in four almost monospecific vegetation stands situated on a salt marsh along the Oosterschelde estuary, The Netherlands.

BELOW GROUND BIOMASS PATTERNS IN ARID LANDS
, 2010 Vegetation patterns have been observed in many arid zones around the world. This particular spontaneous arrangement of the vegetation optimizes the use of the scarce water resources and could be imitated to restore vulnerable ecosystems; at the same time, the patterns of vegetation act as an early warning signal of the fact that fragile ecosystems may ...

Forest Ecology and Management, 2018 : Beside the production of biomass, short rotation coppice (SRC) poplar plantations can also contribute to carbon sequestration in the soil through their below-ground biomass.
