Abstract Structural soils are a type of designed soil intended to improve tree growth in the built environment by increasing the rooting volume available to trees underneath pavement. While urban trees can experience multiple environmental stressors, tree water relations and leaf nutrients are not well studied in structural soil systems.

Although evidence suggests >90% of the North American wood duck population nests in natural tree cavities, few studies have investigated the occurrence of these cavities across their southern breeding range. We aimed to determine forest and tree characteristics associated with the presence of cavities and cavities suitable for wood duck nesting and our

(101) Fertilizer Source Affects Nitrogen and Phosphorus Levels in Leachate from Container-grown Quercus phellos L. and Magnolia virginiana L. [PDF]
Environmental concerns with nitrogen and phosphorus use at container nurseries and the subsequent effects of nutrient-laden irrigation effluent prompted this study. Bare root liners of willow oak (Quercus phellos L.) and sweetbay magnolia (Magnolia virginiana L.) were grown in #5 containers during year one and repotted into #15 containers during year ...

The survival and growth of bottomland tree species in floodplain ecosystems are largely driven by species‐specific resource conditions. To assess the performance of native tree species along resource gradients, we planted seedlings of four native species, including Baldcypress (Taxodium distichum), Loblolly pine (Pinus taeda), Water oak (Quercus nigra),
