Summary Drying and drought in tropical forests, which have some of the highest net primary productivity on Earth, are likely to alter root dynamics, ecosystem function, and carbon (C) storage. We used a chronic drying experiment in four lowland Panamanian forests to investigate whether soil drying shifts tropical forest root production from surface to ...

Toward a functional understanding of novel fire regimes in tropical forests
Abstract Climate change and land‐use alterations are driving forest fires to unprecedented frequencies and intensities worldwide. Even wet tropical forests—historically rarely subjected to fire—are increasingly experiencing fire disturbances. The impact of wildfires on these forests is likely large, since many of their tree species are not adapted to ...

Summary Substantial fine‐root trait variation is found at fine spatial scales but rarely linked to edaphic variation. We assessed the spatial scales of variation in fine‐root traits and adjacent soils using a spatially coupled, nested sampling scheme along a fertility gradient in a seasonally dry tropical forest tree, Handroanthus ochraceus.

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plants use physical barriers and chemical compounds to defend themselves against natural enemies. For instance, tough leaves are considered to be better defended than soft leaves, part of a spectrum of defences defined by functional traits such as leaf chemistry ...

A high‐resolution model of the grapevine leaf morphospace predicts synthetic leaves
Grapevine leaves are emblematic of the strong visual associations people make with plants. Leaf shape is immediately recognizable at a glance, and therefore, this is used to distinguish grape varieties. In an era of computationally enabled machine learning–derived representations of reality, we can revisit how we view and use the shapes and forms that ...

Tree species diversity promotes below‐ground water source partitioning in mixed oak and pine stands, potentially reducing competition for water in more diverse ecosystems. Yet, these results show that it is insufficient to buffer the adverse impacts of severe droughts on above‐ground tree carbon and water use, leading to higher water stress, especially

Abstract The latest barometer of food safety in Catalonia conducted by the Catalan Food Safety Agency (ACSA for its initials in Catalan) in 2021 shows that 28.7% of the population consumes meat analogues (substitutes). The main reasons for consuming this type of food are animal welfare, followed by environmental and health reasons.
