Effect of soil waterlogging on below-ground biomass allometric relations in Norway spruce [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
An increasing importance is assigned to the estimation and verification of carbon stocks in forests. Forestry practice has several long-established and reliable methods for the assessment of aboveground biomass; however we still miss accurate predictors ...

Snow Water Storage Within Eight Pacific Coastal Watersheds in British Columbia (Canada) Inferred From Four Years of Airborne Lidar Data

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Maritime mountain snowpacks are among the least understood and most poorly quantified components of global snow water storage, despite their vital role in sustaining water supplies and ecosystem health. Here, we present a 4‐year record of snow mass distribution across eight small‐to‐medium‐sized (5.2–63.4 km2) watersheds within the coastal ...

Correlation of Habitat and Structural Factors with Dieback and Nutrition of Silver Fir (Abies alba Mill.) in Gorski Kotar

open access: yesCroatian Journal of Forest Engineering, 2011
Dieback of silver fir in Croatia, especially in the Dinaric part, is associated with complex changeable effects of abiotic and biotic factors. In industrial forests, the volume of dieback trees or volume of trees cut down in salvage cutting is most often

Integrating effects of species composition and soil properties to predict shifts in montane forest carbon-water relations. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
This study was designed to address a major source of uncertainty pertaining to coupled carbon-water cycles in montane forest ecosystems. The Sierra Nevada of California was used as a model system to investigate connections between the physiological ...

Pedodiversity‐Based Covariates for Digital Soil Mapping Framework

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Soil Science, Volume 77, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
ABSTRACT The integration of soil diversity as a covariate in digital soil mapping framework remains largely unexploited. However, we believe that it may carry important information that can be used to create more accurate digital maps of soil properties.

Demographic and Structural Variability Modulate Growth Dynamics in European Beech Primary Forests

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 5, May 2026.
Climate change is increasing drought and heat stress on European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.), causing widespread tree vitality losses and growth declines across Europe. Using a large tree ring network from montane primary beech forests, we found that trees of various ages and sizes respond differently to climate warming, leading to contrasting within ...

How much different are conifer forests? Comparison of Lepidoptera community in silver fir and black pine stands in Calabria (southern Italy)

open access: yesForest@, 2017
The main coniferous forests of Calabria (Italy) are certainly the Calabrian black pine (Pinus nigra calabrica) forests of the Sila massif and the silver fir (Abies alba) forests of the Serre Vibonesi.

Protistan Predators Outshine Fungi in Forest Soil Activity

open access: yesJournal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 73, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Despite extensive research on fungal communities in forest soils, our understanding of the whole eukaryotic diversity and distribution remains limited. Moreover, traditional amplicon sequencing methods often introduce severe PCR and primer biases, further hindering accurate assessment of the microbial community composition in forest soils.
