Non‐stationary forest responses to hotter droughts: a temporal perspective considering the role of past legacies

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2026, Issue 5, May 2026.
Global change is altering forests worldwide, with multiple consequences for ecosystem functioning. Temporal changes in climate, and extreme, compounded weather events like hotter droughts are affecting the demography, composition and function of forests, leading to a highly uncertain future.

A twofold development and demise of pine stands in the Netherlands during the Allerød interstadial: two hypotheses to explain a link to climate change recorded in Greenland ice

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 4, Page 575-586, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The second half of the Allerød interstadial in the Netherlands is characterised by pine forest. Excavated trunks of 165 pine trees at Leusden‐Den Treek in the central Netherlands (LETR16) were dated by dendrochronology and radiocarbon. Two chronologically separated pine forest phases occurred during relatively warm periods as recorded in ...

Analysis of Site-dependent Pinus halepensis Mill. Defoliation Caused by ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma pini’ through Shape Selection in Landsat Time Series

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2019
High levels of ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma pini’ have produced extensive forest mortality on Pinus halepensis Mill forests in eastern Spain. This has led to the widespread levels of forest mortality.

Impact of climate and environmental changes on forest ecosystem's productivity (case study: Galugah) [PDF]

open access: yesتحقیقات جنگل و صنوبر ایران, 2013
According to the results of the current research, a new approach in application of dendrochronology, using broadleaved tree rings, as main element of productivity, to evaluate forest ecosystem productivity, has been introduced.

Comparing non‐staining methods with Mutvei's solution to visualize growth increments in short‐lived intertidal marine gastropod shells

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, Volume 24, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Mutvei's solution is a widely utilized standard staining method for revealing growth increments in biogenic carbonates; however, it is a slightly toxic, destructive approach with varying success across species groups. Therefore, there has been growing interest in finding non‐toxic, less destructive, and straightforward alternative techniques ...

Exorcizing Divergence in Tree‐Ring Density Along the Rocky Mountains

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Briffa et al. (1998), https://doi.org/10.1038/35596 published a seminal paper on the reduced sensitivity of annual tree growth to temperature across Northern Hemisphere treeline stands. By averaging tree‐ring chronologies to sub‐continental means, they found decade‐long trends in maximum latewood density (MXD) progressively diverging from ...

Eucalypt dendrochronology: past, present and potential

open access: yes, 2015
Dendrochronology has the capacity to provide unique insights into natural vegetation dynamics and yield climatological reconstructions. However, because of a persistent belief that eucalypts are unsuited to dendrochronological analysis, research ...

Art Adds Value to Ecological Field Courses: A Multi‐Year Case Study in Higher Education

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
This study presents Earth Projects, an interdisciplinary, place‐based field course that merges ecology and ecological art (eco‐art) to foster deeper engagement with environmental learning. Pre‐ and post‐survey comparisons show that incorporating eco‐art can strengthen students' emotional connections to their identities, disciplines, and place.

QUANTITATIVE COMMUNITY DESCRIPTION FROM CENTRAL KARAKORAM NATIONAL PARK (CKNP), GILGIT-BALTISTAN, PAKISTAN

open access: yesFUUAST Journal of Biology, 2011
A study was carried out to asses the communities and floristic composition of 32 stands of forest, shrubs and herbs from CKNP. On the basis of phytosociological analysis and maximum important value index, following 1 forest community, 3 pure stands and ...
