Plastic adjustments in xylem vessel traits to drought events in three Cedrela species from Peruvian Tropical Andean forests [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2022
Cedrela species occur within the Tropical montane cloud forest (TMCF) and rainforest in North America (Mexico), Central and South America. We assessed the hypothesis that functional xylem hydraulic architecture might be influenced by specific climatic ...

MASTREE+: Time-series of plant reproductive effort from six continents. [PDF]

Glob Chang Biol, 2022
MASTREE+ is an open‐access data set that collates reproductive time‐series data from across the globe. It includes 73,828 georeferenced observations of annual reproduction (e.g. seed and fruit counts) in perennial plant populations, consisting of 5,971 population‐level time‐series from 974 species.

Understanding climate change impacts on biome and plant distributions in the Andes: Challenges and opportunities. [PDF]

J Biogeogr, 2022
Abstract Aim Climate change is expected to impact mountain biodiversity by shifting species ranges and the biomes they shape. The extent and regional variation in these impacts are still poorly understood, particularly in the highly biodiverse Andes. Regional syntheses of climate change impacts on vegetation are pivotal to identify and guide research ...

Small-fragment, high turnover: soil microenvironment fluctuation effect on tree diversity in a Neotropical montane oak forest [PDF]

PeerJ, 2023
Background Soil microenvironmental variables showed an important key in α and β-tree diversity in Neotropical montane oak forest. Thus, understanding the microenvironment fluctuation at small-fragment effects on tree diversity is crucial in maintaining ...

Detecting Nothofagus pumilio Growth Reductions Induced by Past Spring Frosts at the Northern Patagonian Andes [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Extreme climatic events, such as late frosts in spring during leaf flush, have considerable impacts on the radial growth of temperate broadleaf trees. Albeit, all broadleaved species are potentially vulnerable, damage depends on the particularities of ...

Woody legacies of railroad ties from the Southern Atacama Desert used to strengthen Nothofagus obliqua tree-ring chronologies from Northern Patagonia [PDF]

Scientific Reports
During the late Nineteenth and Twentieth centuries there was an intense exploitation of the long-lived Nothofagus obliqua forests in the temperate region of South America due to the quality of their hardwood.

Polylepis wood acclimation strategies to ENSO events [PDF]

Scientific Reports
During the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO), heat wave variations off the High Andean Puna (HAP) cause extreme droughts at high altitudes. A better understanding of the drought susceptibility of HAP Polylepis xeric-species is needed given the ...

Low Growth Sensitivity and Fast Replenishment of Non-structural Carbohydrates in a Long-Lived Endangered Conifer After Drought [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
There is an ongoing debate on whether a drought induced carbohydrate limitation (source limitation) or a direct effect of water shortage (sink limitation) limit growth under drought.
