Silviculture and forest protection: results and prospects from third Italian National Congress of Silviculture

open access: yesForest@, 2009
This paper summarizes the topics discussed during the session “Silviculture, Forest Protection” of the Third Italian National Congress of Silviculture. The health of Italian forests is often depending on irrational forest exploitation schemes

Functional traits explain growth response to successive hotter droughts across a wide set of common and future tree species in Europe

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Functional traits can explain significant tree growth reductions in response to the 2018–2020 drought for a wide set of 71 species including angiosperms and gymnosperms. Moreover, four distinct response types emerged: ‘Sufferer’, ‘Late sufferer’, ‘Recoverer’ and ‘Resister’, with gymnosperms predominately appearing as ‘Sufferer’ and ‘Late sufferer ...

Root water uptake depth in temperate forest trees: species‐specific patterns shaped by neighbourhood and environment

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Root water uptake strategies vary among temperate tree species (European beech, Douglas fir, and Norway spruce), with beech–conifer mixtures altering water uptake depths, while site conditions and temporal dynamics further shape the contribution of different soil depths to water supply.

Water Quality Assessment of Sager Creek Utilizing Physiochemical Parameters and a Family-Level Biotic Index [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
An annual rapid bioassessment and physiochemical survey of Sager Creek in Northwest Arkansas was conducted. Sager Creek is a first to second order stream that flows through the city of Siloam Springs, AR.

Assessing the adaptive potential of European beech populations to temperature and precipitation along a steep environmental gradient in the south‐eastern Carpathians

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
This study focuses on the identification of candidate SNPs involved in local adaptation to altitude by environmental association analysis conducted on different natural European beech (Fagus sylvatica) populations. Abstract It is necessary to assess the adaptive potential of European beech populations to climate change.

Conservation of the Cerrado from the valorization of socio-biodiversity products: the importance of production chains and local marketing channels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The Cerrado occupies an area of about 20 million km2 (approximately 20% of the Brazilian territory), being the second largest national biome and the richest savanna in biodiversity of the planet. Although it covers three regions of the country (Northeast,

Growth Performance Is Driven by Site Conditions and Moderated by Functional Trait Plasticity in Quercus robur and Prunus avium

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
Growth performance in Quercus robur and Prunus avium is strongly influenced by site conditions, but also by functional traits (Specific Leaf Area, spring leaf‐out date), which show moderate plasticity in response to climate. These traits differ among provenances of the same species, and there is variability in trait values within the provenances.

Branch Orientation: A Potential Indicator of Stem Rehydration and Water Stress

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 2, February 2026.
Perceptual model illustrating how conifer branch position varies with tree water status. Well‐hydrated trees maintain branches in upward or horizontal positions due to higher water content and turgor pressure. As water stress increases, branches progressively droop downward.
