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

Thermophilous deciduous forests in Southeastern Europe
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.

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