Antifungal Effects of Staining Process on Wood: Hardness, Gloss, and Color Change

open access: yesBioResources, 2022
This study determined the effects of wood staining on wood-destroying fungi. To achieve this goal, different types of wood samples were used, including Scotch pine (Pinus sylvestris L.), Eastern beech (Fagus orientalis Lipsky), sessile oak (Quercus ...

The Relationships between Climate, Tree-Ring Growth, and Cone Production in Longleaf Pine

open access: yesInternational Journal of Plant Biology, 2023
Historically abundant longleaf pine (Pinus palustris Mill.) trees were once a leading source of profit and ecosystem services across the southeastern United States.

Gap-Scale Disturbance Patterns and Processes in a Montane Pinus palustris Woodland

open access: yesForests, 2022
Gap-scale disturbances drive successional and structural development patterns in most forest ecosystems. Although fire-maintained Pinus palustris woodlands are less light limited than closed canopy forests, gap-scale disturbance processes may still influence successional and developmental pathways. We quantified biophysical characteristics of 50 canopy

Local and General Above-Ground Biomass Functions for Pinus palustris Trees [PDF]

open access: yesForests, 2018
There is an increasing interest in estimating biomass for longleaf pine (Pinus palustris Mill.), an important tree species in the southeastern U.S. Most of the individual-tree allometric models available for the species are local, relying on stem diameter outside bark at breast height (DBH) and total tree height (HT), but seldom include stand-level ...

Radial Growth Responses of Four Southeastern USA Pine Species to Summertime Precipitation Event Types and Intense Rainfall Events

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2022
Previous dendroclimatic studies have examined the relationship between total precipitation amounts and tree radial growth in the southeastern USA, yet recent studies indicate that specific precipitation event types and rainfall intensities influence ...

Carbon Dynamics of Pinus palustris Ecosystems Following Drought

open access: yesForests, 2016
Drought can affect forest structure and function at various spatial and temporal scales. Forest response and recovery from drought may be a result of position within landscape. Longleaf pine forests in the United States have been observed to reduce their carbon sequestration capacity during drought.

Alpine flora of Kashmir Himalaya: floristic assessment, life history traits and threat status

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Alpine ecosystems in the Himalaya are considered to be at a higher risk to anthropogenic global change drivers. The Kashmir Himalaya, located in the north‐western side of the Himalayan biodiversity hotspot, harbors a diverse alpine flora, which remains systematically little investigated.

Xylem heating increases vulnerability to cavitation in longleaf pine

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2018
Improved understanding of the physiological mechanisms of tree mortality following fires is important with the predicted increase in wildfires under climate change, as well as continued use of prescribed fire for forest management.

Impacts of longleaf pine (Pinus palustris Mill.) on long-term hydrology at the watershed scale

open access: yesScience of The Total Environment, 2023
Threats from climate change and growing populations require innovative solutions for restoring streamflow in many regions. In the arid western U.S., attempts to increase streamflow (Q) through forest management have had mixed results, but these approaches may be more successful in the eastern U.S.

Wildlife temporal behaviors in response to human activity changes during and following COVID‐19 park closures

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
With urbanization reducing the amount of available wildlife habitat, and outdoor recreation increasing the human activity within wildlife habitats, it is important to understand the effects of human activity on animal behavior. This study examined how the reduction in human presence in urban parks in Gainesville, Florida, affected the temporal ...
