Biodiversity effects on ecosystem functioning are driven by resource quality and contamination

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Biodiversity–ecosystem functioning relationships are increasingly explained by species' traits and resource quality differences rather than richness alone, yet cross‐trophic effects and environmental context remain poorly resolved.

Impact of harvest intensity on ectomycorrhizal and saprotrophic fungal communities in forest soils

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Low‐intensity tree harvesting has been proposed as a sustainable forest management practice to balance and preserve forest productivity, carbon storage and resilience to climate extremes. Soil fungi play a central role in driving tree performance and soil carbon storage,

Dendroclimatic reconstruction of the precipitation series in the Polaciones valley (Cantabria)

open access: yesInvestigaciones Geográficas, 2018
A dendroclimatic reconstruction is carried out using the data from nine chronologies of the Fagus sylvatica taxon spread out in Polaciones, a valley of the central Cantabrian Mountains.

Allometric scaling models for tree saplings: Assessing potential fodder for ungulate herbivores

open access: yesTrees, Forests and People, 2023
Knowledge of the quantity of twig dry mass (available fodder) of saplings is crucial for understanding tree recruitment under wild ungulate browsing pressure in forest ecosystems. Therefore, this study aimed to develop allometric equations for estimating

Warm Spring Weather Alters Calling Phenology of Four Sympatric Early‐Breeding Anurans

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
An unusually warm March in 2024 (“false spring”) followed by freezing temperatures allowed us to assess the impact of a weather event on an amphibian community. The calling activity of all four species was associated with increasing temperature, and the first date of calling was advanced by 11–18 days.

Assessing Browsing Impact in Beech Forests: The Importance of Tree Responses after Browsing

open access: yesDiversity, 2023
Browsing by ungulates can affect the development of a forest stand due to selective browsing and shifts in the growth ranking between tree species. Assessing browsing impact in an objective way is difficult in patchily distributed beech forests.

Rapid non‐destructive assessment of leaf water status with low‐cost transmittance meters

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Tools for more efficiently managing agricultural production and the use of limited water resources are required in the context of a growing global population, while the increasing threat posed by droughts and wildfires necessitates improved methods for risk assessment, forecasting and early warning. Quantifying leaf water content is central to

Interception, throughfall and stemflow in two forests of the "Sierra de la Demanda" in the Province of Burgos

open access: yesPirineos: Revista de Ecología de Montaña, 1996
[es] El balance de agua en dos ecosistemas forestales de la "Sierra de la Demanda", un hayedo climácico (Fagus sylvatica L.) y un pinar de reforestación (Pinus sylvestris L.) en área de potencialidad hayedo, ha sido determinado.
