Simulating past and future refugia for temperate trees in northern Italy
Ecography, EarlyView.During the Quaternary, trees responded to the climatic changes of glacial–interglacial cycles with large‐scale range shifts. Over cold glacials, temperate tree species contracted their ranges and survived in areas known as refugia. Several studies point to the Euganean Hills (Colli Euganei), in Veneto, northern Italy, as one of the northernmost ...

Biodiversity and biomass co‐regulate urban forest drought resistance
Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.Severe droughts induced by climate change present substantial challenges to urban forests. While the role that species richness plays in enhancing drought resistance in natural ecosystems has been highlighted in previous studies, its impact within urban forests remains less understood.

Using airborne lidar to discern age classes of cottonwood trees in a riparian area [PDF]
, 2006 Airborne lidar (light detecting and ranging) is a useful tool for probing the structure of forest canopies. Such information is not readily available from other remote sensing methods and is essential for modern forest inventories.
