Drivers of persistent post-fire recruitment in European beech forests [PDF]
Science of The Total Environment, 2020 Climate change is expected to alter disturbance regimes including fires in European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) forests. Regarding the resilience of beech forests to fire it is questionable whether seeds of this non-serotinous obligate masting seeder find advantageous conditions in a post-fire environment. The probability of recruitment success has been

A comparison of presettlement and modern forest composition along an elevation gradient in central New Hampshire [PDF]
, 2011 Tree species composition is influenced not only by edaphic and climatic factors but also by natural and human-caused disturbances. To understand interactions among these influences, we compared forest species composition data from the time of European ...

Predicting phenology of European beech in forest habitats [PDF]
iForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry, 2018 Reliable phenological observations are important for studying the response of trees to climate and climate change. National phenological networks were not specifically established to monitor tree phenology within forests, yet they are often used to generalise tree phenological phases at national or regional scales.

Potential Elevation Shift of the European Beech Stands (Fagus sylvatica L.) in Serbia
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019 According to climate projection models, the global temperature is expected to rise by at least 1.5°C by the end of this century. According to some studies the expected rise in Serbia is even higher.

Fagus sylvatica 'Dawyck': 'Dawyck' European Beech
EDIS, 2014 Upright European Beech grows in a columnar form without pruning perhaps to 70 or 80 feet tall. The crown spreads to about 30 feet. The tree grows slowly, recovers slowly from transplanting and prefers a sunny location and a moist, light soil.

BVOC emissions from English oak (Quercus robur) and European beech (Fagus sylvatica) along a latitudinal gradient [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2016 English oak (Quercus robur) and European beech (Fagus sylvatica) are amongst the most common tree species growing in Europe, influencing the annual biogenic volatile organic compound (BVOC) budget in this region.

Trees, 2020 Key message Under severe drought, growth of Norway spruce suffered much more than European beech. Norway spruce benefited from growing in the environment of beech, and both species acclimated slightly to 5 years of experimentally extended drought ...

Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2021 Drought-sensitive European beech forests are increasingly challenged by climate change. Admixing other, preferably more deep-rooting, tree species has been proposed to increase the resilience of beech forests to drought.

A first assessment of genetic variability in the longhorn beetle Rosalia alpina (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) from the Italian Apennines [PDF]
, 2018 The Rosalia longicorn (Rosalia alpina) is a strictly protected saproxylic beetle, widely distributed in Central and Southern Europe and mainly associated with ancient beech forests. To improve knowledge about the conservation status of R. alpina in Italy,
