Wood anatomical trait correlations with hydraulic efficiency and safety in an aseasonal wet tropical forest

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Xylem anatomy underpins the capacity of trees to transport water while avoiding hydraulic failure, shaping species performance and resilience to climate change. However, the specific ways anatomical traits underpin hydraulic trade‐offs in tropical forests remain debated.

Alleviation of phosphorus rather than nitrogen limitation driven by permafrost and landscape effects on Dahurian larch forests

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Permafrost thaw is reshaping nutrient dynamics in boreal forests, but its impacts on tree nutrient limitation and functional strategies remain poorly understood. Clarifying these responses is crucial for predicting the response of boreal forests to climate change.

Chemical changes of polysaccharides in heat-treated European beech wood

open access: yesJournal of Wood Science
This work deals with the influence of different heat treatment temperatures (140, 150, 160, 170, 180, 190, 200, and 210 °C) on changes in sapwood and red heartwood of European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.). According to the results of wet chemistry methods,

The predatory behavior of ants: an impressive panoply of morphological adaptations

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
This review focuses on predation in ants, showing the wide diversity of cases from solitary foraging to group hunting tactics, as well as the evolution of mandible shape frequently adapted to capture specific prey. Although most ants are generalist feeders, finding their sugary substances directly on plants or indirectly via sap‐sucking insects, some ...

Ring‐Width Dendrochronology, Isotopic Dendrochronology and Radiocarbon Dating of Timbers From the Spire Scaffold of Salisbury Cathedral, Wiltshire, England

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ten timbers from the spire scaffold of Salisbury Cathedral were dated using a combination of ring‐width dendrochronology, stable oxygen isotopic dendrochronology and radiocarbon dating. Seven timbers were coeval and assigned a combined empirical felling date range of 1352–1378, which was further refined to 1351–1359 (OxCal 95.4%).

Impregnation of Norway spruce (Picea abies L. Karst.) wood with hydrophobic oil [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The overall goal of this thesis was to develop new knowledge to facilitate the production of Norway spruce wood-based materials that are more durable and more homogenous than current materials by using a hydrophobic oil impregnation process). Linseed oil

Metabonomics Analysis of Stem Extracts from Dalbergia sissoo

open access: yesMolecules, 2022
Dalbergia sissoo is a woody plant with economic and medicinal value. As the pharmacological qualities and properties of the wood from this plant primarily depend on its extractives, in this study, the metabolomic analysis of extractives from its stems ...

Evidence for a trade‐off between growth rate and xylem embolism resistance in 22 Eucalyptus species

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Examples of cross‐sectional images of branchlets at 4× and 40×. Summary Within the growth–survival trade‐off framework, embolism resistance is considered a contributor to survival, yet whether greater embolism resistance inherently limits growth remains unclear.
