Understory effect on tree and cork growth in cork oak woodlands
Aim of study: Cork oak is one of the main forest tree species in Portugal that typically occurs in montado, where operational practices oriented to the tree, crop or animal management may influence several of the ecosystem components. This study aimed at

Physiological drought responses improve predictions of live fuel moisture dynamics in a Mediterranean forest. [PDF]
The moisture content of live fuels is an important determinant of forest flammability. Current approaches for modelling live fuel moisture content typically focus on the use of drought indices.
