Investigating the Relationship Between Sapwood Density and Sapwood Capacitance Within the Hydraulic Pipeline Paradigm

, 2020
As the earth's climate continues to change, forests within a diverse set of biomesare experiencing increasingly frequent, severe, and longer periods of drought stress.The continued rise of global temperatures could radically alter the composition and structure of forests in many regions (Van Mantgem, 2007).

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

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 8, Page 2590-2601, August 2026.
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.

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

Insect Science, Volume 33, Issue 4, Page 1256-1284, August 2026.
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 ...

Wettability of the surface of heat-treated juvenile teak wood assessed by drop shape analyzer

Maderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2018
This study investigated the effect of the heat treatment on the wettability of the surface of juvenile teak (Tectona grandis) wood assessed by drop shape analyzer. Heartwood and sapwood samples were heat-treated at 180 and 200oC.

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

Archaeometry, Volume 68, Issue 4, Page 761-772, August 2026.
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%).

Variation of heartwood-sapwood physicochemical properties in Populus euphratica along groundwater depth gradients in the Lower Tarim River, Northwest China

Trees, Forests and People
Variation in physical and chemical properties of Populus euphratica Oliv. heartwood and sapwood under different groundwater depths reflect species-specific water and nutrient requirements. This study examines natural P.

Histochemical and geometric alterations of sapwood in coastal Douglas-fir following mechanical damage during commercial thinning

Silva Fennica, 2011
Histochemical and geometric alterations to sapwood in mechanically damaged Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii [Mirbel] Franco) trees were quantified 14 years after thinning. Discoloration and decay were measured in felled damaged and undamaged trees.
