A Mosaic of Future Maladaptation Predicted for the Widespread Tree Nothofagus pumilio
ABSTRACT Nothofagus pumilio, or lenga beech, is a widespread and locally‐adapted tree species endemic to South America's Patagonia region. Its diverse populations span a 2000‐km‐long range in the Andes Mountains, which is already experiencing adverse effects from climate change.

An ecophysiographic approach for Araucaria araucana regeneration management [PDF]
Chilean temperate forests are dominated by Nothofagus and Araucaria araucana species. Despite A. araucana not being at imminent risk of extinction, its cultural value and the associated environmental services and landscape goods have an important role

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

A Systematic Review of 65 Years of Research on Nothofagus: An Iconic Southern Hemisphere Genus
ABSTRACT Nothofagus is a genus of 37 species of tree distributed across the Southern Hemisphere and has long been considered a taxon of fundamental importance for understanding the evolution and ecology of the forest ecosystems of the Southern Hemisphere. Using quantitative text analysis, we evaluated 65 years of research on this iconic genus.

Biodiversity in mountain soils above the treeline
ABSTRACT Biological diversity in mountain ecosystems has been increasingly studied over the last decade. This is also the case for mountain soils, but no study to date has provided an overall synthesis of the current state of knowledge. Here we fill this gap with a first global analysis of published research on cryptogams, microorganisms, and fauna in ...

Progress in South America Dendrochronology [PDF]
South America extends from 11°N to 62°S. Major boundaries such as the Andes on the western side of the continent and the land mass in the tropics create north-south and west-east variations in climate and ecosystems.
