Climate Change Alters Temperate Forest Canopies and Indirectly Reshapes Arthropod Communities

Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2021
Global change challenges the adaptive potential of forests. Large-scale alterations of forest canopies have been reported across Europe, and further modifications are expected in response to the predicted changes in drought and windstorm regimes.

Mixing Public and Private Agri-Environment Schemes: Effects on Farmers Participation in Quebec, Canada

International Journal of the Commons, 2020
Incentive-based mechanisms, such as payments for ecosystem services (PES) are increasingly being employed to encourage adoption of biodiversity conservation practices in agriculture.

Fine root biomass and morphology in a temperate forest are influenced more by the nitrogen treatment approach than the rate

, 2021
Global nitrogen (N) deposition patterns have profoundly affected the production and morphological structure of fine roots, which in turn changed the distribution of carbon in forests. However, traditional experiments of N addition in forests have ignored

Climatic factors controlling stem growth of alien tree species at a mesic forest site: a multispecies approach

, 2023
The introduction of non-native species with various ecological and functional traits to European forests may be a potential tool for mitigating climate risks.

Quantifying the target state of forest stands managed with the continuous cover approach – revisiting Möller's “Dauerwald” concept after 100 years

Trees, Forests and People, 2020
Continuous cover forestry is often considered a management alternative to age-class forestry, in closer compliance with economic as well as societal demands. It is further thought to provide forest stands of high stability and resilience under conditions

Yeasts from temperate forests

Yeast, 2022
AbstractYeasts are ubiquitous in temperate forests. While this broad habitat is well‐defined, the yeasts inhabiting it and their life cycles, niches, and contributions to ecosystem functioning are less understood. Yeasts are present on nearly all sampled substrates in temperate forests worldwide.

Above‐ and below‐ground biodiversity jointly regulate temperate forest multifunctionality along a local‐scale environmental gradient

Journal of Ecology, 2020
Tree diversity has been shown to promote a broad range of ecosystem functions in forests. However, how important these effects are in driving ecosystem multifunctionality in natural forests, relative to other drivers, such as below‐ground biodiversity (e.
