Evapotranspiration Profiles and Trends in Seasonally Dry and Seasonally Humid Tropical Forests

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Moisture availability and vegetation are decisive factors in ET variations, which are greater in the Atlantic Forest. Precipitation contributes positively to ET variations (r = 0.20–0.67). Significant trends (p < 0.05) in ET were identified, with opposing patterns.

Evergreen Production System for Southern Highbush Blueberries in Florida

EDIS, 2020
In central and south-central Florida, many southern highbush blueberries (SHB) are grown in an evergreen system, in which the plants do not go dormant, and are managed to retain their leaves from the previous year through harvest the following spring to

From shape to source: sedimentary charcoal morphology as a proxy for tropical burned biomass composition

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sedimentary charcoal elongation is increasingly being used in paleoecology to distinguish herbaceous from woody fuel in past fires. However, the relationship between charcoal morphotypes and plant types has never been formally tested in tropical environments, despite its potential to improve understanding of fire regimes and deforestation, and

Reconstructing post‐crisis recovery in the hinterlands of Constantinople: A high‐resolution first‐millennium CE pollen record from Lake Yeniçağa (NW Türkiye)

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Facing a novel plague pandemic, military invasions, and political–economic transformations, societies of the eastern Roman (Byzantine) empire had to adapt to a variety of pressures and new ways of exploiting their natural environments during the mid‐1st millennium CE.

Botanical treatment enhances biochemical responses in enset (Ensete ventricosum (Welw.) Cheesman) clones

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Bacterial wilt of enset (Ensete ventricosum (Welw.) Cheesman) is a severe disease caused by Xanthomonas campestris pv. musacearum, resulting in complete crop failure and considerable damage. This study assessed the biochemical responses of two enset clones (one resistant and one susceptible) when inoculated with the pathogen and ...

Carbon fluxes from a temperate rainforest site in southern South America reveal a very sensitive sink

Ecosphere, 2018
Ecosystems where carbon fluxes are being monitored on a global scale are strongly biased toward temperate Northern Hemisphere latitudes. However, forest and moorland ecosystems in the Southern Hemisphere may contribute significantly to the global and ...

Plant sex influences aquatic–terrestrial interactions

Ecosphere, 2020
A growing body of research shows that plant genetic factors can influence ecosystem processes and structure communities, but one aspect that has received little study is sex differentiation in dioecious plants.
