Foliar resorption of beech and maple along an elevation gradient in a northern hardwood forest

Forest Ecosystems
Foliar resorption is a principal nutrient conservation mechanism in terrestrial vegetation that could be sensitive to ongoing changes in climate and atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition.

Long term variation of leaf abundance in a northern hardwood forest

Ecological Indicators, 2022
Leaf abundance of trees plays a dominant role in energy, water and nutrient flux of forest ecosystems, in defining the habitat structure of entrained biota and in mediating interspecific competition among tree species.

Forest bird body condition and fruit consumption related to spotted wing Drosophila abundance and fruit parasitism

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Migratory bird species are under heavy energetic demands following the breeding season. Birds must first complete a pre‐migratory molt and build fat deposits during the postbreeding season for migration. Many birds utilize early successional habitat, consuming fruit resources for energy and using cover provided by vegetation.

Simple Girdle Kills Small American Beech (Fagus grandifolia Ehrh.) [PDF]

Northern Journal of Applied Forestry, 2004
Abstract A simple girdle at waist height will kill small understory American beech (Fagus grandifolia Ehrh.). Either removing all the bark from within the girdle or cutting two rings into the wood around the circumference using a small saw will suffice. These methods would likely work on other hardwoods as well. North. J. Appl. For. 21(4)

Increasing Respiration Weakens the Carbon Sink Over Two Decades in a Temperate Deciduous Forest

Global Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 3, September 2026.
Using a 20‐year eddy covariance record from a temperate deciduous forest, we show that net carbon uptake declined over two decades. Both the trend and interannual variability in net carbon exchange were respiration driven, with warming winters and increasing late‐summer diffuse light driving the trend in respiration.

Branch mass allocation increases wind throw risk for Fagus grandifolia

Forestry: An International Journal of Forest Research, 2019
AbstractWind is a major force of disturbance in forests throughout the world, causing trees to break or uproot and topple over, depending on tree morphology and growing conditions. Previous research has suggested that trees that are more massive or which have lower height–diameter ratios are less at risk to wind throw, but the influence of crown size ...

Monitoring the effects of ovariectomy on seasonal movement behavior in suburban female white‐tailed deer using internet of things‐enabled devices

Wildlife Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 5, September 2026.
Abundant deer populations often cause conflicts in suburban communities, yet traditional population reduction methods, such as controlled hunting, can be challenging to implement. Fertility control, specifically through ovariectomy, can limit reproduction and reduce populations in certain settings, but its effect on movement behavior remains poorly ...

Formation of cis-Coniferin in Cell-Free Extracts of Fagus grandifolia Ehrh Bark [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 1990
American beech (Fagus grandifolia Ehrh) bark exclusively accumulates cis-monolignols and their glucosidic conjugates; no evidence for the accumulation of trans-monolignols has been found. The glucosyltransferase from this source exhibits a very unusual substrate specificity for cis, and not trans, monolignols.
