Nutritional and environmental factors influence small mammal seed selection in a northern temperate forest

Ecosphere, 2022
Rodents can influence the succession and assembly of plant communities by preying on and dispersing seeds. Using a seed tray experiment with three common seeds, American beech (Fagus grandifolia), red maple (Acer rubrum), and eastern hemlock (Tsuga ...

Forest under stress: responses and recovery of water relations across scales during the compound drought in summer 2022. [PDF]

New Phytol
A schematic showing the links of tree‐scale (root‐, stem‐, and leaf‐level) and ecosystem‐scale water relations during the CSAD at CH‐Lae. Summary The summer of 2022 was characterized by compound soil and atmospheric drought (CSAD; low soil water content, SWC, and high vapor pressure deficit, VPD) in Central Europe, threatening forest carbon ...

A Rapid Cytological Screening as pre-Endoscopy Screening for Early Esophageal Squamous Cell Lesions: A Prospective Pilot Study from a Chinese Academic Center

Technology in Cancer Research & Treatment, 2022
Background: Cytological detection of early esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) remains challenging. Therefore, we introduced a rapid cytological screening method and evaluated its efficacy as a pre-endoscopy screening for early ESCC and precursor ...

Compensatory responses of leaf physiology reduce effects of spring frost defoliation on temperate forest tree carbon uptake

Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2023
Spring frosts can defoliate trees, reduce canopy carbon assimilation, and alter interspecific competition dynamics. These events may become more common with climate change, but our understanding of the associated ecological impacts is limited by the ...

Transcriptome analysis based on a combination of sequencing platforms provides insights into leaf pigmentation in Acer rubrum

BMC Plant Biology, 2019
Background Red maple (Acer rubrum L.) is one of the most common and widespread trees with colorful leaves. We found a mutant with red, yellow, and green leaf phenotypes in different branches, which provided ideal materials with the same genetic ...

Lumber Volume and Value Recovery from Small-Diameter Black Cherry, Sugar Maple, and Red Oak Logs

BioResources, 2016
While only a very small percentage of hardwood logs sawn by conventional sawmills in the U.S. have small-end diameters less than 10 in, portable and scragg mills often saw smaller logs.

Effects of Wildfire and the Presence of the Invasive Paulownia tomentosa on the Regeneration of Native Tree Species in North-Central Appalachia

Fire, 2021
A wildfire occurred in Shawnee State Forest located in southern Ohio that consumed 1215 hectares. Based on earlier forest inventories it was known that paulownia (Paulownia tomentosa), a non-native invasive tree species, occurred in the forest.
