Wood density is a fundamental functional trait influencing ecological adaptation, hydraulic safety, and timber utilisation in temperate hardwoods. This study investigated variation in wood density (12% moisture) across mature stands of two economically ...

Fine‐root trait variation in temperate trees follows arc‐shape pattern along deep soil profiles
Root trait variation along the soil depth profile in four temperate tree species. Summary Roots are plants' interface with the soil, controlling access to water and nutrients. Yet, fine‐root trait variation along deep soil profiles and its functional implications remain poorly understood.

OakEcol: A database of Oak-associated biodiversity within the UK
Globally there is increasing concern about the decline in the health of oak Quercus trees. The impact of a decline in oak trees on associated biodiversity, species that utilize oak trees, is unknown.

ABSTRACT Drought‐induced tree mortality underscores the need for improved physiological models to predict tree responses to water stress. We employed a hysteresis modelling approach analyzing diel water absorption and desorption cycles to understand drought‐induced shifts in physiological thresholds.

Quercus dalechampii Ten. and Quercus petraea (Mattuschka) Liebl. have close taxonomical features, ecological requirements and phytocenological characteristics. Quercus dalechampii is wide spread in Bulgarian mountains up to 1500 m a.s.l. Q. petraea does not make communities, but takes part in the communities of Q. dalechampii as single individuals. The

Woods with Quercus petraea in Tuscany (Italy): a vegetation classification approach
In Tuscany (Italy), oak mixed woods with high cover values of Quercus petraea are rather infrequent but well documented within local and national phytosociological studies, even if, in the literature, not always analyzed and well characterized from the ...

Pulsed Resource Events Mediate Fluctuations in Wild Boar (Sus scrofa) Bag Records in Central Europe
Warm spring conditions during April and May were associated with mast seeding by both oak species (Q. petraea, Q. robur) and beech (F. sylvatica). The amount of energy available for wild boar in southern Germany due to mast seeding by these three tree species was negatively associated with the number of wild boar shot and with the number of vehicle ...

Acorn Availability Reduces Agricultural Damage by Ungulates
Human–wildlife conflicts caused by ungulate damage to agricultural crops represent a major ecological and economic challenge. Using a 19‐year national dataset from Poland, we show that oak mast seeding substantially reduces crop damage—by approximately 30%—likely due to a dietary shift of ungulates toward forest resources, whereas beech seed production
