Comparing ecosystem gaseous elemental mercury fluxes over a deciduous and coniferous forest

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Sources of neurotoxic mercury in forests are dominated by atmospheric gaseous elemental mercury (GEM) deposition, but a dearth of direct GEM exchange measurements causes major uncertainties about processes that determine GEM sinks.

The potential of an increased deciduous forest fraction to mitigate the effects of heat extremes in Europe [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2023
Deciduous forests are characterized by a higher albedo, a reduced stomatal resistance, and a deeper root system in comparison to coniferous forests.

Historical variability of deciduous trees and deciduous forests in northern Sweden [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The aim of the work underlying this thesis was to study the historical variability of deciduous trees and deciduous forests in northern Sweden. To ascertain the effects of forest fires and human activities on the historical variability of deciduous trees,

Soil and leaf nutrient content of tree species support deciduous forests on limestone outcrops as a eutrophic ecosystem

open access: yesActa Botânica Brasílica, 2015
The leaf and soil nutrient status of plants has been used to infer structural and functional aspects at the ecosystem level. Such data are available for tropical and savanna systems growing on poor and acidic soils; however, information for species ...

Thermophilous deciduous forests in Southeastern Europe

open access: yesPlant Biosystems - An International Journal Dealing with all Aspects of Plant Biology, 2009
The work focuses on the vegetation of the order Quercetalia pubescentis in Southeastern Europe. In the region, the alliances such as Fraxino orni-Ostryion, Carpinion orientalis, Syringo-Carpinion, Quercion confertae, Quercion petraeae-cerris, Quercion pubescenti-sessiliflorae and Aceri tatarici-Quercion have been established.

Winter and early spring assemblages of ladybird beetles (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) in two forest habitats in suburban area of Warsaw, central Poland

open access: yesStudia Ecologiae et Bioethicae, 2016
In March and April of 2014 and 2015, overwintering and post-overwintering assemblages of ladybird beetles were investigated in deciduous (Tilio-Carpinetum) and mixed forest (Querco roboris-Pinetum) patches in a forest complex on the north-western ...

Effects of climate and plant functional types on forest above-ground biomass accumulation

open access: yesCarbon Balance and Management, 2023
Background Forest above-ground biomass (AGB) accumulation is widely considered an important tool for mitigating climate change. However, the general pattern of forest AGB accumulation associated with age and climate gradients across various forest ...

Nitrogen Deposition to and Cycling in a Deciduous Forest [PDF]

open access: yesThe Scientific World JOURNAL, 2001
The project described here seeks to answer questions regarding the role increased nitrogen (N) deposition is playing in enhanced carbon (C) sequestration in temperate mid-latitude forests, using detailed measurements from an AmeriFlux tower in southern Indiana (Morgan-Monroe State Forest, or MMSF).
