An allometry-based approach for understanding forest structure, predicting tree-size distribution and assessing the degree of disturbance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Tree-size distribution is one of the most investigated subjects in plant population biology. The forestry literature reports that tree-size distribution trajectories vary across different stands and/or species, while the metabolic scaling theory suggests

Natural regeneration of trees in three types of afforested stands in the Taihang Mountains, China.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Natural regeneration is the natural process by which plants replace themselves. It is a cost-effective way to re-establish vegetation, and it helps to preserve genetic identity and diversity.

Structural heterogeneity modulates the effects of stem density on standing biomass in mature dry Isoberlinia woodlands

open access: yesFrontiers in Forests and Global Change
IntroductionWhile the impacts of forest structural attributes on above-ground biomass (AGB) has been largely documented in closed-canopy forests, much less is known in dry forests, where water rather than light drives biomass accumulation. In particular,

Relationships between hydraulic traits and habitat preference for six Acer species occurring in the French Alps [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Xylem hydraulic properties and vulnerability to cavitation were studied in six Acer species which occur, in the French Alps, along a soil moisture gradient from the moist valleys to the drier mountain stands.

On the Complexity of Equivalence of Specifications of Infinite Objects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We study the complexity of deciding the equality of infinite objects specified by systems of equations, and of infinite objects specified by lambda-terms. For equational specifications there are several natural notions of equality: equality in all models,

Analysis of monoterpene variation in natural stands and plustrees of Pinus sylvestris in Finland.

open access: yesSilva Fennica, 1986
Variation of monoterpene composition of L. was studied in Southern, Central and Northern Finland using data from both natural stands and plus trees. The natural stands were analysed using different techniques and for fewer terpenes than the plus trees ...

Lower alpha, higher beta, and similar gamma diversity of saproxylic beetles in unmanaged compared to managed Norway spruce stands.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Strong anthropogenic pressures on global forests necessitate that managed forests be evaluated as habitat for biodiversity. The complex pattern of habitat types created in forestry systems is ideal for analyses through the theoretical framework of alpha (

NRASQ61R Expression in Lymphatic Endothelial Cells Causes Enlarged Vessels, Hemorrhagic Chylous Effusions, and High Mortality in a Mouse Model of Kaposiform Lymphangiomatosis

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Kaposiform lymphangiomatosis (KLA) is an aggressive complex lymphatic anomaly. Patients exhibit malformed lymphatic vessels and often develop hemorrhagic effusions and elevated angiopoietin‐2 (Ang‐2) levels. A somatic NRAS p.Q61R (NRASQ61R) mutation has been associated with KLA.
