Reconciling links between diversity and population stability across global plant communities

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Maintaining ecological stability is essential for sustaining ecosystem functions and the benefits they provide to society. Ecological theory predicts that plant diversity destabilizes local populations, yet empirical studies report variable effects.

Multifractal Detrended Fluctuation Analysis Combined with Allen–Cahn Equation for Image Segmentation

open access: yesFractal and Fractional
This study proposes a novel image segmentation method, MF-DFA combined with the Allen–Cahn equation (MF-AC-DFA). By utilizing the Allen–Cahn equation instead of the least squares method employed in traditional MF-DFA for fitting, the accuracy and ...

Measuring Growth Spillovers

open access: yesOxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We propose a multilevel econometric model with time‐varying spillover parameters that disentangle within‐country from between‐country growth spillovers. Parameter estimation is carried out by the method of maximum likelihood. The finite‐sample properties of the resulting estimates are validated through a Monte Carlo study.

Rescaled Range Analysis and Detrended Fluctuation Analysis: Finite Sample Properties and Confidence Intervals [PDF]

open access: yes
We focus on finite sample properties of two mostly used methods of Hurst exponent H estimation—rescaled range analysis (R/S) and detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA).

Legacies from early‐season hot drought: how growth cessation alters tree water dynamics and modifies stress responses in Scots pine

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Early‐season hot drought in Scots pine limits growth and productivity but improves resilience to late‐season drought through reduced water use. Abstract Tree responses to drought are well studied, but the interacting effects of drought timing on growth, water use, and stress legacy are less understood.

Positive mixture effects in pine–oak forests during drought are context‐dependent

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Mixture effects in drought‐stressed pine‐oak forests are context‐dependent, with Gambel oak and ponderosa pine benefiting from their complementarity under semi‐arid conditions. Abstract The increasing severity and frequency of droughts will play a pivotal role in shaping future forest ecosystems worldwide.

Dual Polarimetric Radar Vegetation Index for monitoring forest moisture stress using time series of Sentinel‐1 SAR data

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates the potential of the Sentinel‐1 Dual Polarimetric Radar Vegetation Index, combined with climate variables and the Standardized Precipitation–Evapotranspiration Index, to effectively detect and monitor drought‐induced stress in temperate broadleaf deciduous forests.
