Temperature responses of photosynthesis and respiration in evergreen trees from boreal to tropical latitudes

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2022
Summary Evergreen species are widespread across the globe, representing two major plant functional forms in terrestrial models. We reviewed and analysed the responses of photosynthesis and respiration to warming in 101 evergreen species from boreal to ...

Forest fragmentation impacts the seasonality of Amazonian evergreen canopies

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Predictions of the magnitude and timing of leaf phenology in Amazonian forests remain highly controversial. Here, we use terrestrial LiDAR surveys every two weeks spanning wet and dry seasons in Central Amazonia to show that plant phenology varies ...

Leaf turgor loss point shapes local and regional distributions of evergreen but not deciduous tropical trees

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2021
Summary The effects of climate change on tropical forests will depend on how diverse tropical tree species respond to drought. Current distributions of evergreen and deciduous tree species across local and regional moisture gradients reflect their ...

Particulate Matter Removal Ability of Ten Evergreen Trees Planted in Korea Urban Greening

open access: yes, 2021
Broad-leaved evergreen trees create urban forests for mitigation of climate warming and adsorption of particulate matter (PM). This study was performed to identify the species suitable for urban greening by examining the adsorption capacity of the ...

Champions of Winter Survival: Cold acclimation and Molecular Regulation of Cold Hardiness in Evergreen Conifers.

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2020
Evergreen conifers are champions of winter survival, based on their remarkable ability to acclimate to cold and develop cold-hardiness. Counterintuitively, autumn cold acclimation is triggered not only by exposure to low temperature, but also by a ...

Tracking the phenology of photosynthesis using carotenoid sensitive and near-infrared reflectance vegetation indices in a temperate evergreen and mixed deciduous forest.

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2020
Photosynthetic phenology is an important indicator of annual gross primary productivity (GPP). Assessing photosynthetic phenology remotely is difficult for evergreen conifers as they remain green year-round.

Deciduous and evergreen oaks show contrasting adaptive responses in leaf mass per area across environments.

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2020
• Increases in leaf mass per area (LMA) are commonly observed in response to environmental stresses and are achieved through increases in leaf thickness and/or leaf density.

Legacy of the Last Glacial on the present‐day distribution of deciduous versus evergreen boreal forests

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, 2020
ISSUE: Despite their rather similar climatic conditions, eastern Eurasia and northern North America are largely covered by different plant functional types (deciduous or evergreen boreal forest) composed of larch or pine, spruce and fir, respectively.

Seasonal variation in the canopy color of temperate evergreen conifer forests

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2020
Summary Evergreen conifer forests are the most prevalent land cover type in North America. Seasonal changes in the color of evergreen forest canopies have been documented with near‐surface remote sensing, but the physiological mechanisms underlying these

Markedly Divergent Tree Assemblage Responses to Tropical Forest Loss and Fragmentation across a Strong Seasonality Gradient [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We examine the effects of forest fragmentation on the structure and composition of tree assemblages within three seasonal and aseasonal forest types of southern Brazil, including evergreen, Araucaria, and deciduous forests.
