Methane cycling in temperate forests

open access: yesCarbon Balance and Management
Temperate forest soils are considered significant methane (CH4) sinks, but other methane sources and sinks within these forests, such as trees, litter, deadwood, and the production of volatile organic compounds are not well understood. Improved understanding of all CH4 fluxes in temperate forests could help mitigate CH4 emissions from other sources and

What drives animal responses to high severity fire? The role of functional traits

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fire regimes are changing worldwide, with increases in the frequency, extent, and severity of fires posing growing risks to biodiversity. Fire severity – the degree of habitat alteration following fire – strongly influences both immediate survival and long‐term recovery of fauna.

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

open access: yesEcology 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.

Soil Organic Matter Mineralization as Driven by Nutrient Stoichiometry in Soils Under Differently Managed Forest Stands

open access: yesFrontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2020
Nutrient contents of soil organic matter in forests vary with regional differences in soil types and parent material, and can be modified by forest type and management intensity.

Patterns and drivers of recent disturbances across the temperate forest biome

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Increasing evidence indicates that forest disturbances are changing in response to global change, yet local variability in disturbance remains high. We quantified this considerable variability and analyzed whether recent disturbance episodes around the ...

Spatial Analysis of a mixed Beech, Spruce and Fir stand in the Eastern Alps [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In a forest reserve, located in the Eastern Italian Alps, a 4 ha permanent plot has been set up in a beech-spruce-fir multilayered forest, left to natural evolution for more than 30 years, in order to detect stand structure and spatial patterns ...

Kin discrimination in plants: overview and implications for population and community ecology

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Following the discovery of identity discrimination, particularly self and kin discrimination amongst plant competitors, research on interplant interactions has advanced significantly within plant physiology and evolutionary ecology. This review synthesizes current knowledge on how both self and kin discrimination influence plant growth ...

Monitoring of forest ecosystems in Ireland : FOREM 9 project : final report [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Intensive monitoring has been carried out under EC Regulation 3528/86 (project number 8860 IR 001.0) at Ballyhooly, Co. Cork since 1988. In 1991, three new plots (Roundwood, Cloosh and Brackloon) were established (9060IR0030) to give a more ...
