Effects of stand age on carbon storage in dragon spruce forest ecosystems in the upper reaches of the Bailongjiang River basin, China. [PDF]

Sci Rep, 2019
At an ecosystem level, stand age has a significant influence on carbon storage (CS). Dragon spruce (Picea asperata Mast.) situated along the upper reaches of the Bailongjiang River in northwest China were categorized into three age classes (29–32 years ...

Changes in Bulk and Rhizosphere Soil Microbial Diversity and Composition Along an Age Gradient of Chinese Fir (Cunninghamia lanceolate) Plantations in Subtropical China

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Soil microorganisms play key roles in biogeochemical cycling in forest ecosystems. However, whether the responses of microbial community with stand development differed in rhizosphere and bulk soils remains unknown. We collected rhizosphere and bulk soil

Alterations in Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Community Along a Chronosequence of Teak (Tectona grandis) Plantations in Tropical Forests of China

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi play a crucial role in promoting plant growth, enhancing plant stress resistance, and sustaining a healthy ecosystem. However, little is known about the mycorrhizal status of teak plantations.

Carbon cycling in mature and regrowth forests globally

Environmental Research Letters, 2021
Forests are major components of the global carbon (C) cycle and thereby strongly influence atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO _2 ) and climate. However, efforts to incorporate forests into climate models and CO _2 accounting frameworks have been constrained ...

Distribution of a Newly Recorded Gastropod Species, Mainwaringia leithii (Gastropoda, Littorinidae), in Young, Rehabilitated Mangroves in China

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
The species within the genus Mainwaringia in Littorininae have been recognized as being strongly associated with mangroves; however, their abundance and distribution patterns in mangroves have rarely been reported. In this study, we reported Mainwaringia

Antelope Bitterbrush Seed Production and Stand Age [PDF]

Journal of Range Management, 2001
Antelope bitterbrush (Purshia tridentata (Pursh) DC) is the most important browse species on many western mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus) ranges. Lack of antelope bitterbrush seedling recruitment is a critical problem, and therefore, the influence of livestock grazing on antelope bitterbrush seed production is an important issue.

Impact of orography and stand canopy on stand volume in pure uneven-aged beech stands

Topola, 2022
European beech is one of the most important and most common tree species in Europe, which have extremely wide amplitude in sense of horizontal and vertical distribution. In Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) represents one of the most important tree species from an economic and ecological point of view, because it's ...
