Transforming even-aged coniferous stands to multi-aged stands: an opportunity to increase tree species diversity? [PDF]

Forestry: An International Journal of Forest Research, 2020
Abstract Transforming even-aged coniferous stands into multi-aged ones is attracting growing interest in Europe. However, applying this silvicultural treatment, maintaining a continuous cover and relying on natural regeneration require a deep understanding of the factors driving interspecific competition in the understorey. In particular,

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.

Using InSAR Coherence to Map Stand Age in a Boreal Forest

Remote Sensing, 2012
The interferometric coherence parameter γ estimates the degree of correlation between two Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images and can be influenced by vegetation structure. Here, we investigate the use of repeat-pass interferometric coherence &

Standing as Channeling in the Administrative Age

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2012
For several decades, courts have approached citizen suits with judicially created rules for standing. These requirements for standing have been vague and unworkable, and often serve merely as a screening mechanism for docket management. The use of standing rules to screen cases, in turn, yields inconsistent decisions and tribunal splits along partisan ...

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 ...

Breast cancer and aging: Standing on the shoulders of a giant

Journal of Geriatric Oncology, 2020
With the aging of the US population, the number of individuals age 65 or older who will be diagnosed with breast cancer is expected to rise. Despite this, older adults with breast cancer remain severely under-represented in cancer clinical trials. Numerous studies have highlighted disparites in care experienced by older patients with breast cancer. Dr.
