Summary Drying and drought in tropical forests, which have some of the highest net primary productivity on Earth, are likely to alter root dynamics, ecosystem function, and carbon (C) storage. We used a chronic drying experiment in four lowland Panamanian forests to investigate whether soil drying shifts tropical forest root production from surface to ...

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Understanding how environmental drivers affect tree functioning is essential to improve predictions of tropical forests' response to climate change. While functional traits directly influence tree performance, our understanding of how canopy environments shape their ...

Diameter growth is an important and good indicator of forest carbon production. However, size‐related changes in wood density, which are usually neglected, are critical for accurate short‐ and long‐term carbon assessments, especially in tropical humid sites.

Wildfire, salvage logging and warming: Their interactive effects on boreal conifer reforestation
This study demonstrates that artificial regeneration through planting can support forest recovery following wildfire, especially under high fire severity in sites where natural regeneration is poor. Salvage logging can enhance the growth of P. sylvestris seedlings and indirectly benefit P.

ABSTRACT Climate change presents significant challenges to species survival; however, the long‐term effects on tropical lizard populations remain poorly understood. Previous studies have predicted contrasting outcomes, with some forecasting a high risk of extinction due to rising temperatures, while others suggest greater resilience in tropical ...

We found rich and compositionally different assemblages of medium and large‐sized mammals in protected areas on the southern edge of Amazon. However, both have high rates of mammal defaunation. We argue that anthropogenic threats in the Amazon Arc of Deforestation are eroding large ungulate populations, especially peccaries.

Identifying herbicides to manage weeds in a buckwheat cover crop and for the control of volunteers
Abstract Buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum) is a fast‐growing plant that quickly produces a dense groundcover. The utilization of buckwheat as a cover crop in vegetable production could be beneficial to Georgia producers, however for successful adoption, weed control in the cover crop coupled with control of buckwheat volunteers must be achievable.

Community‐appropriate bioenergy resource potential assessment in Pelican Narrows, Saskatchewan
Abstract Bioenergy is a promising renewable energy option for energy insecure communities across the boreal region. Whilst community energy planning tools are advancing, many are driven by external technical resource assessments and fail to capture local community values. Community energy solutions must be community‐appropriate.

Fertilizer‐induced soil carbon rapidly disappears after clearcutting in boreal production forests
Overall, the carry‐over effects on biodiversity from forest fertilization into stands regenerating after clearcutting were limited. We conclude that soil organic carbon stores induced by fertilization are short‐lived and do not persist after clearcutting.
