A holistic approach to determine tree structural complexity based on laser scanning data and fractal analysis

Ecology and Evolution, 2018
The three‐dimensional forest structure affects many ecosystem functions and services provided by forests. As forests are made of trees it seems reasonable to approach their structure by investigating individual tree structure.

Variation in carbon storage and its distribution by stand age and forest type in boreal and temperate forests in northeastern China. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
The northeastern forest region of China is an important component of total temperate and boreal forests in the northern hemisphere. But how carbon (C) pool size and distribution varies among tree, understory, forest floor and soil components, and across ...

Individualistic responses of forest herb traits to environmental change [PDF]

, 2020
Intraspecific trait variation (ITV; i.e. variability in mean and/or distribution of plant attribute values within species) can occur in response to multiple drivers.

Hiding in Plain Sight: Rethinking the Size and Complexity of Iron Age Hillforts in NW Iberia Thanks to Aerial Archaeology and Geophysics

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper tackles one key limitation in the analysis of Iron Age communities in the Northwestern Iberian Peninsula: the limited exploration of areas beyond the fortified settlements known as castros (hillforts). The vast majority of archaeological studies have focused exclusively on the areas inside the walls of these settlements, which are ...

Plant and soil microbe responses to light, warming and nitrogen addition in a temperate forest [PDF]

, 2018
1. Temperate forests across Europe and eastern North America have become denser since the 1950s due to less intensive forest management and global environmental changes such as nitrogen deposition and climate warming. Denser tree canopies result in lower

A review of the historic and present ecological role of aquatic and shoreline wood, from forest to deep sea

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

Comparative foliar metabolomics of a tropical and a temperate forest community.

Ecology, 2018
Plant enemies that attack chemically similar host species are thought to mediate competitive exclusion of chemically similar plants and select for chemical divergence among closely related species.
