Autumn sunlight promotes aboveground carbon loss in a temperate mixed forest

Ecological Processes
Background Photodegradation of plant litter plays a pivotal role in the global carbon (C) cycle. In temperate forest ecosystems, the exposure of plant litter to solar radiation can be significantly altered by changes in autumn phenology and snow cover ...

Relationship between tree growth and physical dimensions of Fagus sylvatica crowns assessed from terrestrial laser scanning

iForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry, 2015
Measurements of physical tree crown dimensions were of subjective character in the past, even though they can be considered important for the management of many silvicultural operations, such as timing of thinning operations. In our study we investigated

Ratio of photosynthetically active radiation to global solar radiation above forest canopy in complex terrain: measurements and analyses based on Qingyuan Ker Towers

Ecological Processes
Background Understanding of the ratio of photosynthetic photon flux density (Q p ) to global solar radiation (R s ) (Q p /R s ) is crucial for applying R s to ecology-related studies.

Spatiotemporal variations in dissolved organic carbon in China’s major river basins and their associations with climate change and human activities

Carbon Balance and Management
Riverine dissolved organic carbon (DOC) is a vital element of regional carbon cycling, yet its magnitude and influencing factors remain poorly quantified.

Ecology: Complexity and functionality in forests

Current Biology
Forests are species-rich ecosystems and provide vital ecosystem services. A new study highlights how tree diversity, mycorrhizal fungi and soil food web structure govern forest functionality, and how tiny energy fluxes can be critical for community persistence. The findings provide new insights into how to sustainably manage forests.

The confinedness of undergrowth Picea obovata and Abies sibirica (Pinaceae) to tree-related microhabitats and their development features at various phases of post-fire succession in green-moss dark coniferous forests in the Northern Pre-Urals

Nature Conservation Research: Заповедная наука
Forest ecology frequently explores the role of microsite mosaics in forest communities for the regeneration of forest-forming tree species. The present study aims to find out whether the ontogenetic structure and differentiation of Siberian spruce (Picea

Drought aggravates the negative effects of warming on the growth of drought-intolerant tree seedlings in temperate forests

Ecological Processes
Background How tree seedlings with contrasting drought tolerance respond to climate change remains largely unexplored, which will limit our ability to predict future forest composition and resilience under shifting climatic conditions.
