Direct and indirect disturbance impacts on forest biodiversity
Understanding the responses of biodiversity to forest disturbance is critical for maintaining ecosystem integrity and key ecological functions. Ecological research in forests after major disturbance typically focuses on the direct responses of individual

Temperature and inoculation method influence disease phenotypes and mortality of Eucalyptus marginata clonal lines inoculated with Phytophthora cinnamomi [PDF]
Survival of 1-year-old plants of three clonal lines of Eucalyptus marginata (jarrah), two ranked as resistant (RR1 and RR2) and one as susceptible (SS1) to Phytophthora cinnamomi, was assessed after pathogen inoculation with either mycelial mats ...

Influence of tree size on the scaling relationships of lamina and petiole traits: A case study using Camptotheca acuminata Decne. [PDF]
Tree size can significantly influence the leaf traits. The overall investment costs in the mechanical and hydraulic support of leaves were greater in the larger tree size group compared to those of the smaller tree size group. Abstract There is a lack of research on whether tree size affects lamina and petiole biomass allocation patterns, whereas the ...

Empirical relationships between tree fall and landscape-level amounts of logging and fire. [PDF]
Large old trees are critically important keystone structures in forest ecosystems globally. Populations of these trees are also in rapid decline in many forest ecosystems, making it important to quantify the factors that influence their dynamics at ...
