Elevation‐dependent tree growth response to climate in a natural Scots pine/downy birch forest in northern Sweden [PDF]

open access: yesPlant-Environment Interactions
Forests dominate the landscape at high latitudes in the boreal regions and contribute significantly to the global carbon stock. Large areas are protected and provide possibilities to analyze natural forest dynamics including resilience to climate change.

Allometric models for above-ground biomass, carbon and nutrient content of wild cherry (Prunus avium L.) trees in agroforestry systems

open access: yesAnnals of Forest Science, 2023
Key message We provide a set of allometric models for wild cherry trees (Prunus avium L.) established in agroforestry systems. A total of 70 trees in southwestern Germany were surveyed using terrestrial laser scanning and analysed using quantitative ...

Modelling and Comparing Shading Effects of 3D Tree Structures with Virtual Leaves

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
Reduced solar radiation brought about by trees on agricultural land can both positively and negatively affect crop growth. For a better understanding of this issue, we aim for an improved simulation of the shade cast by trees in agroforestry systems and ...

Multivariate drought stress response of Norway spruce, silver fir and Douglas fir along elevational gradients in Southwestern Germany

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
The conifer tree species Norway spruce (Picea abies), silver fir (Abies alba) and Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) are important elements in tree species composition and forest management of Central European forests, but their potential to thrive ...

Dendrochronology in European Russia in the Early 21st Century: State of the Art

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
In this review, we have focused on the following key points: (1) living trees in European Russia and their climatic sensitivity. Species suitable for tree-ring analyses, their age limits, spatial distribution of temperature- and drought-sensitive trees ...

Dendroecology of Macrolobium acaciifolium (Fabaceae) in Central Amazonian floodplain forests [PDF]

open access: yesActa Amazonica, 2018
The forest dynamics in the Amazonian floodplains is strongly triggered by the flood pulse. Trees respond to unfavorable growth conditions during the flood period by cambial dormancy, which results in the formation of annual growth rings.

Linkages between climate, seasonal wood formation and mycorrhizal mushroom yields [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Fungi provide important forest ecosystem services worldwide. In Mediterranean pine forests, predicted warmer and drier conditions could lead to a decline in mushroom yields.

Terrestrial laser scanning as a tool for assessing tree growth

open access: yesiForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry, 2017
Terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) technology is a powerful tool for assessing tree growth based on time series analysis, as it allows a level of scrutiny not achievable using established destructive techniques.
