Effects of Invasive Winter Moth Defoliation on Tree Radial Growth in Eastern Massachusetts, USA

Insects, 2014
Winter moth, Operophtera brumata L. (Lepidoptera: Geometridae), has been defoliating hardwood trees in eastern Massachusetts since the 1990s. Native to Europe, winter moth has also been detected in Rhode Island, Connecticut, eastern Long Island (NY), New

Variability in Vessel Dimensions Across Select Quercus Species: A Comparative Study of four European and American species

Drewno
Anatomical features of wood cells and their size variations are key elements of wood identification. This research focuses on the microscopic differentiation between four Quercus species, two Red Oaks (Q. cerris and Q. rubra) and two White Oaks (Q.

Seed conditioning of red oak: a recalcitrant North American seed Condicionamento de sementes de carvalho vermelho: semente recalcitrante da América do Norte

Scientia Agricola, 1998
A ten day aerated water soak was developed as a seed conditioning treatment for red oak (Quercus rubra L.). Conditioned seeds had higher germination completeness, uniformity and speed compared to control seeds.

Leaf litter quality is a stronger driver of decomposition in lawns than the microclimatic effect of trees

Frontiers in Soil Science
Lawns and wooded areas dominate urban green spaces (UGSs) and are known to store substantial amounts of carbon in soils, yet the role of lawn trees in litter decomposition dynamics remains poorly understood. This study assessed how trees influence litter
