Inflammability ofPinus halepensis [PDF]
Summary In the framework of the prevention of the forest fires, the thermal analysis technics can be used to determine the behavior of the vegetable to the heat. The different aerial parts (needle, branch, cone) of Pinus halepensis (Aleppo Pine) present thermal analysis curves of DTA and DTG close enough, whatever are the degree of maturation and the ...

Ageing of resin from Pinus species assessed by infrared spectroscopy [PDF]
Resins obtained from Pinus genus species have been widely used in very different fields throughout history. As soon as the resins are secreted, molecular changes start altering their chemical, mechanical and optical properties.

History matters: previous land use changes determine post-fire vegetation recovery in forested Mediterranean landscapes [PDF]
Land use changes and shifts in disturbance regimes (e.g. wildfires) are recognized worldwide as two of the major drivers of the current global change in terrestrial ecosystems.

Hydraulic adjustments underlying drought resistance of Pinus halepensis [PDF]
Drought-induced tree mortality has increased over the last decades in forests around the globe. Our objective was to investigate under controlled conditions the hydraulic adjustments underlying the observed ability of Pinus halepensis to survive seasonal drought under semi-arid conditions. One hundred 18-month saplings were exposed in the greenhouse to

Post-effects of long-term water drougth in Mediterranean pine stands
Two studies were carried out on the effects of imposed water shortage in two Mediterranean pine stands growing in Southern Italy. The impact of a severe reduction in water availability on the growth of 50-year old Pinus halepensis trees (growing along ...

Aromatic Plants in Eurasian Blue Tit Nests: The ‘Nest [PDF]
The ‘Nest Protection Hypothesis’ suggests that some birds add aromatic plants to their nests to repel or kill ectoparasites. This behavior has been described for several species, including the Eurasian Blue Tit (Cyanistes caeruleus).

Stand-level biomass models for predicting C stock for the main Spanish pine species
Background National and international institutions periodically demand information on forest indicators that are used for global reporting. Among other aspects, the carbon accumulated in the biomass of forest species must be reported.
