Nutrient dynamics and early decomposition rates of Picea abies needles in combination with Fagus orientalis leaf litter in an exogenous ecosystem

open access: yesAnnals of Forest Research, 2016
The Hyrcanian forests in the Northern Iran are originally poor of coniferous and are considered as a refugium of temperate broad-leaved trees during the Quaternary glaciations.

Divergent selection predating the Last Glacial Maximum mainly acted on macro‐phenotypes in Norway spruce

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, 2023
The current distribution and population structure of many species were, to a large extent, shaped by cycles of isolation in glacial refugia and subsequent population expansions.

Anomalous roughening of wood fractured surfaces

open access: yes, 1998
Scaling properties of wood fractured surfaces are obtained from samples of three different sizes. Two different woods are studied: Norway spruce and Maritime pine. Fracture surfaces are shown to display an anomalous dynamic scaling of the crack roughness.

Coccinellidae on native and introduced spruce in central Europe: conservation implications in urban areas

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution
The abundance and species composition of adult ladybird communities (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) were investigated on two congeneric trees, native Norway spruce (Picea abies) and the introduced blue spruce (Picea pungens), at four locations in Slovakia ...

Aspects of hybrid larch (Larix X eurolepis Henry) as a potential tree species in southern Swedish forestry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The interest in growing hybrid larch (Larix × eurolepis Henry) in southern Sweden has increased in recent decades, one of its assumed advantages being high volume growth.

Forest management after the economic transition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Germany and Scandinavia represent two paradigmatic forest management traditions, based on management for volume and management for profit, respectively.

Habitat complexity and prey composition shape an apex predator's habitat use across contrasting landscapes

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
The spatial ecology of stalk‐and‐ambush predators like the Eurasian lynx Lynx lynx depends on prey availability and environmental features, yet the relative roles of these factors remain unclear at large spatial scales. In this study, we analysed lynx habitat use across central and southern Finland using snow‐track data from the Wildlife Triangle ...

Finalisation of the European Approach to Assess the Fire Performance of Facades—Brief Information on the Outcome of the Project

open access: yesFire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This research was conducted within the framework of project SI2.825082, funded by the European Commission—DG GROW. The project's objective was to finalise a European approach for assessing the fire performance of façades under medium and large fire exposure conditions.

The estimation of aboveground biomass and nutrient pools of understorey plants in closed Norway spruce forests and on clearcuts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The estimation model PhytoCalc allows a non-destructive quantification of dry weight and nutrient pools of understorey plants in forests by using the relationship between species biomass, cover and mean shoot length.

Using dendroclimatic analysis of exotic deciduous conifers in an arboretum to document tree growth in response to climate change, Northeast Ohio, USA

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Rising temperatures and wetter conditions in the Midcontinent of North America are influencing climate responses in trees. Dendroclimatological analyses of four exotic deciduous conifer species from Secrest Arboretum, Northeast Ohio help identify past, present and future climate‐tree interactions.
