Relationship between tree growth and physical dimensions of Fagus sylvatica crowns assessed from terrestrial laser scanning

open access: yesiForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry, 2015
Measurements of physical tree crown dimensions were of subjective character in the past, even though they can be considered important for the management of many silvicultural operations, such as timing of thinning operations. In our study we investigated

The Presence of IUCN Red List Tree Species in Dependence of Site Characteristics in the Vietnamese Cat Ba National Park

open access: yesDiversity, 2020
Rare or endangered tree species are important components of forest ecosystems and play a crucial role in management and conservation. Understanding what influences their presence is critical for managers, conservationists and planners.

Forest Carbon Management: a Review of Silvicultural Practices and Management Strategies Across Boreal, Temperate and Tropical Forests

open access: yesCurrent Forestry Reports, 2021
Carbon sequestration and storage in forest ecosystems is often promoted as a solution for reducing CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere. Yet, our understanding is lacking regarding how forest management strategies affect the net removal of greenhouse ...

Distinct responses of soil respiration to experimental litter manipulation in temperate woodland and tropical forest [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Global change is affecting primary productivity in forests worldwide, and this, in turn, will alter long‐term carbon (C) sequestration in wooded ecosystems.

PypeTree: A Tool for Reconstructing Tree Perennial Tissues from Point Clouds

open access: yesSensors, 2014
The reconstruction of trees from point clouds that were acquired with terrestrial LiDAR scanning (TLS) may become a significant breakthrough in the study and modelling of tree development.

Efficient measurements of basal area in short rotation forests based on terrestrial laser scanning under special consideration of shadowing

open access: yesiForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry, 2014
Terrestrial laser scanning has been used in forest research for about ten years and use-orientated applications are of increasing importance. The effect of shadowing in single location laser scanning, e.g., as used for biomass estimations, has not been ...

Vertical stratification of selected Hymenoptera in a remnant forest of the Po Plain (Italy, Lombardy) (Hymenoptera: Ampulicidae, Crabronidae, Sphecidae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Communities of the canopy of temperate forests are still relatively unexplored. Furthermore, very little is known on how vertical stratification for some insect groups is related to biological strategies.

Solar Flow Synthesis of Polymer Nanoparticles: Scaling Local Experiments to Global Potential

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The large‐scale sunlight‐induced photochemical synthesis of polymer nanoparticles based on the Diels–Alder step‐growth polymerization of a bismaleimide and a difunctional o‐methylbenzaldehyde in a self‐built solar flow reactor is introduced. Furthermore, a framework is established to translate sunlight‐driven experimental results globally—validated in ...

The Smaller the Leaf Is, the Faster the Leaf Water Loses in a Temperate Forest

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Leaf size (i.e., leaf surface area and leaf dry mass) profoundly affects a variety of biological carbon, water and energy processes. Therefore, the remarkable variability in individual leaf size and its trade-off with total leaf number in a plant have ...

Nitrogen cycling, forest canopy reflectance, and emergent properties of ecosystems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In Ollinger et al. (1), we reported that mass-based concentrations of nitrogen in forest canopies (%N) are positively associated with whole-canopy photosynthetic capacity and canopy shortwave albedo in temperate and boreal forests, the latter result ...
