Effects of management practices on water yield in small headwater catchments at Cordillera de los Andes in southern Chile [PDF]

, 2009
In several parts of the world, drinking water is obtained from springs in natural and managed mountainous forests. Since forests regulate quality as well as quantity of water, the effects of forest-management activities on water yield are an important ...

Changes in emission regime for nitrogen and sulfur in Germany and its impact on a spruce forest measured over a period of 35 years

Journal of Environmental Quality, Volume 55, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract In Germany during several decades, emissions and thus the chemical climate affecting forests have changed significantly. The effects of these changes on the element balance of forests can be documented only by long‐term observations, as has been done at the Höglwald site (Southern Bavaria) since 1985.

Dynamic Nitrogen Resorption Improves Predictions of Nitrogen Cycling Responses to Global Change in a Next Generation Ecosystem Model

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Nutrient resorption from senescing leaves can significantly affect plant nutrient status and growth, making it an important process for carbon‐cycle predictions for land surface models (LSMs). Based on a recent analysis of global nutrient resorption patterns from trait data, we develop a dynamic scheme of nitrogen (N) resorption driven by leaf

Litterfall production in tropical natural forests on Hainan Island: variations across vegetation types and dependence on community properties

Ecological Indicators
Litterfall production is fundamental to various functions and processes within forest ecosystems. Yet, it has been primarily investigated within single vegetation types, with its dependence on biotic conditions remaining largely undefined, particularly ...

Continental scale variability in ecosystem processes: Models, data, and the role of disturbance [PDF]

, 1997
Management of ecosystems at large regional or continental scales and determination of the vulnerability of ecosystems to large-scale changes in climate or atmospheric chemistry require understanding how ecosystem processes are governed at large spatial ...

Production de litières par des forêts situées dans le pré-delta du fleuve Paraná (Argentine) [PDF]

, 2009
• The objectives of this study were to measure litterfall production of the four floodplain forest types and to analyze the relationship between litterfall (forest type, dominant species, organic fractions) and flood pulses.

Drivers of carbon sequestration by biomass compartment of riparian forests [PDF]

, 2015
Riparian forests are expected to play a crucial role in the global carbon (C) cycle but the complex mechanisms of C sequestration in forests remain poorly understood.

Impacts of increasing typhoons on the structure and function of a subtropical forest: reflections of a changing climate

Scientific Reports, 2017
Due to their destructive and sporadic nature, it is often difficult to evaluate and predict the effects of typhoon on forest ecosystem patterns and processes.
