Impact of Mixing on the Structural Diversity of Serbian Spruce and Macedonian Pine Endemic to Relict Forest Communities in the Balkan Peninsula [PDF]

open access: yesForests, 2021
The aim of this paper is to analyze the effect of different degrees of mixing on the diversity structure in stands left to spontaneous development. The research included two communities of species endemic to the Balkan Peninsula—the Serbian spruce (Picea omorika Pančić Purk.) and the Macedonian pine (Pinus peuce Griseb).

A comparative analysis of directed and spontaneous development of mixed forests of fir, spruce and beech on Mt. Tara [PDF]

open access: yesGlasnik Šumarskog Fakulteta: Univerzitet u Beogradu, 2017
The data of periodic complete measurements of permanent sample plots and compartments in which they were located in the period 1955/60-2005/2010 served as the basis for this research.

Satellite Monitoring of the State of Serbian Spruce (Picea omorika (Panč.) Purk.) Stands in the Mount Veliki Stolac Area (Republic of Srpska)

open access: yesЛесной журнал
Multispectral satellite images of medium spatial resolution are the main source of data for remote sensing of stands, including the assessment of forest inventory and biological productivity parameters of stands, as well as changes in the vital status of

Fluorescence-Detected Linear Dichroism of Wood Cell Walls in Juvenile Serbian Spruce: Estimation of Compression Wood Severity [PDF]

open access: yesMicroscopy and Microanalysis, 2016
AbstractFluorescence-detected linear dichroism (FDLD) microscopy provides observation of structural order in a microscopic sample and its expression in numerical terms, enabling both quantitative and qualitative comparison among different samples. We applied FDLD microscopy to compare the distribution and alignment of cellulose fibrils in cell walls of

Bioclimatic, demographic and anthropogenic correlates of grizzly bear activity patterns in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2026, Issue 4, April 2026.
Plasticity of diel activity rhythms may be a key element for adaptations of wildlife populations to changing environmental conditions. In the last decades, grizzly bears Ursus arctos in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem (GYE) have experienced notable environmental fluctuations, including changes in availability of food sources and severe droughts ...

A Generic Spinup Procedure to Initialize European Forest State Variables in Land Surface Models

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Forest structure is shaped by forest management practices, land‐use changes, and natural disturbances, including droughts, fires, storms, and insect outbreaks that drive species‐specific and size‐specific mortality. By modifying the carbon‐water‐energy exchanges with the atmosphere, it influences a stand's capacity to buffer against or succumb

Mycochemical Diversity and Therapeutic Potential of Hymenochaetoid Fungi from Central Asia: Regional and Global Perspectives

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
Central Asia harbors a rich yet understudied assemblage of wood‐inhabiting Hymenochaetoid fungi. This review delivers the first comprehensive synthesis of 43 poroid species representing 18 genera documented across montane forests, steppes, and xeric habitats.

A graduated nativeness definition for overcoming dilemmas and difficulties of vascular plant species

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2026, Issue 2, February 2026.
Nativeness is a concept central to biodiversity conservation and invasion biology, but there are several problems related to a classic binary nativeness definition. Dilemmas arise from the dynamic nature of species' distribution ranges on longer time scales, and difficulties arise in the application to smaller regions defined by arbitrary borders, and ...

Experimental enhancement of structural heterogeneity in forest landscapes promotes multidimensional hoverfly diversity

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.
Our results provide the first experimental evidence that enhancing structural heterogeneity at the landscape scale can restore multidimensional hoverfly diversity in temperate forests. They underscore the management value of ESBC as a scalable tool to restore biodiversity, increase ecological resilience and counteract biotic homogenization in ...
