Abstract Boreal forests cover a substantial portion of Canada's land base and play a central role in the national carbon budget through carbon storage and fluxes across multiple above‐ and belowground pools. The Carbon Budget Model of the Canadian Forest Sector (CBM‐CFS3) simulates and projects forest carbon dynamics under varying conditions and ...

Crown Symptoms of Regrowth Dieback [PDF]
Symptoms in the crowns of Eucalyptus obliqua and E. regnans trees affected by "regrowth dieback" are reevaluated and amplified using tree climbing, tree felling, and optical study methods. A distinction is made between the dying upper branches and the

Environmental and Evolutionary Correlates of Extinction Risk in a Global Biodiversity Hotspot
We show that larger genera have a greater number of threatened and near‐threatened species, and that extinction risk is uncoupled with evolutionary history (diversification, speciation, extinction rates and lineage age). The decoupling of diversification rates and lineage age with current extinction risk suggests drivers of extinction risk are ...

Tidal Attenuation and Poor Drainage Make Interior Microtidal Marshes Vulnerable to Sea Level Rise
Empirical and simulation models often assume a uniform tidal range across marsh platforms to predict marsh vulnerability to sea level rise (SLR), overlooking the hydrological heterogeneity caused by tidal attenuation and drainage conditions.

Maple dieback, a disease condition of unknown etiology affecting sugar maple and other hardwoods in woodlots, was studied over a 6-year period to determine its severity and extent. Data from permanent sample plots showed a consistent recovery trend during this period among moderately affected maple and other hardwood species.

The interdisciplinary “ResEt‐Fi” project investigates ecological and economic responses to different deadwood management practices within post‐disturbance landscapes. This article presents the rationale behind different deadwood treatments, the design of our cross‐regional field trial in Central Europe, and outlines an ecological response framework ...

Cytosporina dieback of apricot
Since about 1957 increasing numbers of apricot trees in coastal and central California counties have suffered from a limb dieback disorder that, until recently, was confused with the bacterial canker disease. This disease is now known to be caused by a fungus called Cytosporina, or in the sexual stage, Eutypa armeniacae, that had been previously ...

Detecting change in vegetation condition using high resolution multispectral imagery [PDF]
Remote sensing of vegetation condition using high resolution digital multispectral imagery (DMSI) is an option for land managers interested in quantifying the distribution and extent of dieback in native forest.

Topography constrains the climatic response of treeline migration in Taiwan's subalpine forests
Treelines are moving upslope, but the rates and drivers differ among different regions, globally. Many studies have examined the relationship between treeline movement and climate change, particularly rising temperature, while the role of topographical factors has received much less attention, despite the longstanding recognition of its importance.
