Spatial and temporal analysis of beta diversity in the Barro Colorado Island forest dynamics plot, Panama

open access: yesForest Ecosystems, 2019
BackgroundEcologists are interested in assessing the spatial and temporal variation in ecological surveys repeated over time. This paper compares the 1985 and 2015 surveys of the Barro Colorado Forest Dynamics plot (BCI), Panama, divided into 1250 (20 m ×

Tree vitality indicators revealed a rapid response of beech forests to the 2018 drought

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2021
Changes in regional and global hydrological cycles and temperature regimes will affect forest health, functioning and growth, and therefore their role in carbon (C) sequestration.

Staphylinidae from Under Bark and at Sap of Trees, a Preliminary Survey of Species Possibly Beneficial to Forestry (Coleoptera) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Two hundred and one species of Staphylinidae known to be found under bark or at sap of trees are listed. The possibility of these insects being important elements in the population dynamics of forest pests is discussed.

The Impact of Drought and Vascular-Inhabiting Pathogen Invasion in Pinus taeda Health

open access: yesInternational Journal of Forestry Research, 2018
The complex interaction of various biotic and abiotic factors may put the overall stand health of Pinus spp. at risk. A study was designed to determine the combined impact of drought and vascular-inhabiting fungi (Leptographium terebrantis and Grosmannia

Deicing Salt Pollution Affects the Foliar Traits and Arthropods' Biodiversity of Lime Trees in Riga's Street Greeneries

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2019
Street greeneries and other green spaces within the urban matrix can potentially reduce air pollution and increase urban biodiversity. Yet, these services can be negatively affected by anthropogenic stress factors.

Role of Horizontal Eddy Diffusivity within the Canopy on Fire Spread

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2020
Wind profile observations are used to estimate turbulent mixing in the atmospheric boundary layer from 1 m up to 300 m height in two locations of pine forests characteristic of the southeast US region, and to 30 m height at one location in the northeast.

Discovery of plastic-degrading microbial strains isolated from the alpine and Arctic terrestrial plastisphere

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Increasing plastic production and the release of some plastic in to the environment highlight the need for circular plastic economy. Microorganisms have a great potential to enable a more sustainable plastic economy by biodegradation and enzymatic ...

Tree regeneration in models of forest dynamics: A key priority for further research

open access: yesEcosphere
Tree regeneration is a key process in forest dynamics, particularly in the context of forest resilience and climate change. Models are pivotal for assessing long‐term forest dynamics, and they have been in use for more than 50 years.

The Dynamics of the Forest Graph Operator

open access: yes, 2016
In 1966, Cummins introduced the "tree graph": the tree graph $\mathbf{T}(G)$ of a graph $G$ (possibly infinite) has all its spanning trees as vertices, and distinct such trees correspond to adjacent vertices if they differ in just one edge, i.e., two ...
