peer-reviewedThis paper is a review of the coppice-with-standards system, a system that may have potential for the rehabilitation of some poorly performing pole-stage broadleaf stands. The system was once a very common system throughout Europe, producing

Structural Recovery of Overlooked Shrublands Drives Asymmetric Restoration in Dryland Ecosystems
Abstract Current remote sensing of dryland ecosystems is fundamentally limited by a reliance on vegetation indices (“greenness”), which struggle to disentangle mixed pixel signals and fail to capture the non‐photosynthetic structural components critical for resilience.

Phytogeographical structure of the deciduous broadleaved forests in northeastern asia
Phytogeographical structure of the deciduous broadleaved forests in Northeastern Asia was overviewed, to clarify the phytogeographical relationships between Fagus crenata forests which have been considered as major constitutions, and other types of the ...

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plants can express considerable plasticity in leaf functional traits, but that plasticity may be constrained by coordination and trade‐offs among multiple functions.

Fine root Production in Evergreen Broadleaved Forest, Northeast Vietnam
Estimating production of fi ne roots (diameter ≤ 2 mm) is signifi cant important to understand carbon cycle of forest ecosystem as it may contributes up to 70% of total net primary production. The estimation of fine root production is left behind in many

Fire‐survival strategies of first‐year acacia seedlings
Acacia seedlings (11 of 12 species) acquire some ability to survive grass fires in their first year, either by resisting topkill with thickened stems and/or by regrowing from below‐ground stems. The results suggest that small differences in these fire‐survival strategies at this crucial life stage translate to large differences in savanna physiognomy ...

Abstract Insectivorous, Afro‐Palearctic migrant birds provide cross‐border ecosystem services, but many are declining rapidly. The complex life cycle of migrant birds makes their conservation difficult, but understanding where they spend time during the breeding season can help indicate where those actions will be most effective.

Life history traits and broadleaved tree genetics [PDF]
Most broadleaved tree species play a minor role in Scandinavian and Baltic forestry, therefore little information on metric trait variation exists so far.

Shaping future forests: how can ecophysiology support climate‐smart forest management?
Summary Climate change, particularly the associated increase in extreme events and disturbances, threatens the numerous environmental, social, and economic benefits that forests provide, both locally and globally. Heat and drought pose significant risks to forest ecosystems; the anticipated future climate is expected to exacerbate this trend ...
