Canopy photosynthetic capacity drives contrasting age dynamics of resource use efficiencies between mature temperate evergreen and deciduous forests

Global Change Biology, 2020
Forest resource use efficiencies (RUEs) can vary with tree age, but the nature of these trends and their underlying mechanisms are not well understood. Understanding the age dynamics of forest RUEs and their drivers is vital for assessing the trade‐offs ...

Evergreening in banking

Journal of Financial Stability, 2007
Abstract In the dynamic model of banking, a bank's option to hide its loan losses by rolling over non-performing loans is shown to worsen moral hazard. Contrary to the classic theory, moral hazard may arise even when a bank cannot seek a correlated risk for its loans. The loans seem to be performing and the bank makes a profit although it is de facto

The advantages of being evergreen

Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 1995
Recent research shows that the dominance of evergreen species in nutrient-poor environments can be explained by their low nutrient loss rates. From this work It appears that the plant traits that are associated with low nutrient loss rates lead to low maximum-dry-matter production and to low rates of litter decomposition.

An Evergreen Empire

2020
This chapter explores the effects of the seventh-century’s economic and political collapse on the environment. It demonstrates that this was a world with little coinage, no bulk exchange, and a simplified material culture. Discussing environmental data, it argues that many locales around the Aegean Sea witnessed an increase in pine and evergreen oak ...
