Balancing Risk and Reward: Red Fox Exploitation of Kill Sites in a Wolf‐Occupied Landscape
Wolves are recolonising the European Alps, and the carcasses they leave behind are a valuable food source for smaller carnivores. Using camera traps at 26 wolf‐killed red deer carcasses in Stelvio National Park, we found that red foxes visited every carcass and timed their visits according to how much meat was left, rather than to whether wolves were ...

Functional memory of drought affects leaf chemical defenses and microbial interactions in aspen
Experimental design of the common garden study. Summary Drought is an important driver of tree mortality, but its long‐term impacts on trait expression remain poorly understood. Leaves are a key interface at which trees respond to abiotic stress, and foliar traits such as chemical defenses and microbial communities may play a role in determining post ...

Conceptual synthesis of drought‐induced mortality in European beech. Summary Severe and recurrent droughts have caused widespread canopy decline and mortality in European forests. Drought‐induced mortality occurs when structural damage and physiological dysfunction impair a tree's ability to recover, yet it remains unclear when trees transition from ...

Detailed characteristics (tree species composition, tree representation, identification features) are presented by 3rd (i.e. geobiocenoses of Querci-fageta s. lat.) and 4th (Fageta (abietis) s. lat.) vegetation tiers in north-eastern Moravia and Silesia.

Carbohydrate content governs growth‐storage allocation during recovery from carbon depletion
Conceptual framework for competing hypotheses of growth‐storage carbon allocation during recovery from carbon limitation. Summary How plants prioritize carbon (C) allocation between growth and storage remains an outstanding question, limiting predictions of forest C cycling and ecosystem resilience following periods of C limitation. To address this gap,

Fagus sylvatica 'Purpurea Pendula': 'Purpurea Pendula' European Beech
Weeping Purple European Beech is more of a shrub than a tree, growing to about 10 feet tall. Branches normally sweep up and away from the center of the tree forming a mound of foliage.

The seasonal variation in inner bark width differed from that of xylem growth, indicating that xylem phenology cannot be reliably assessed without cellular observations. Abstract To better interpret continuous xylem growth measurements from dendrometers, we evaluated how the widths of developing xylem and phloem, along with seasonal trends in inner ...
