Space evidence of enhanced photosynthetic carbon uptake under fragmented temperate forests

Environmental Research Letters, 2022
Global changes arouse large-scale fragmentation of forests, which has a profound impact on the balance of the global carbon cycle. However, the effect and process of temperate forest fragmentation on photosynthetic carbon uptake are not clear.

Patterns and drivers of recent disturbances across the temperate forest biome

Nature 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 ...

The effect of drought stress on the limits and costs of plasticity in floral longevity in response to pollinator decline

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Declines in pollinator populations can reduce pollination services to plants, resulting in lower seed production. In response to these reductions, plants could increase the probability of pollinator visitation by plastically extending floral longevity.

Germination of acorns and development of oak seedlings (Quercus robur L.) following flooding

Journal of Forest Science, 2007
Seeds and seedlings of Quercus robur, a characteristic tree species of the hardwood floodplain forests along the Rhine River, demonstrated high resistance to complete inundation under controlled conditions.

Functional and phylogenetic diversity determine woody productivity in a temperate forest

Ecology and Evolution, 2018
Understanding the relationships between biodiversity and ecosystem productivity has become a central issue in ecology and conservation biology studies, particularly when these relationships are connected with global climate change and species extinction.

Legacies of past land use have a stronger effect on forest carbon exchange than future climate change in a temperate forest landscape

Biogeosciences, 2018
. Forest ecosystems play an important role in the global climate system and are thus intensively discussed in the context of climate change mitigation. Over the past decades temperate forests were a carbon (C) sink to the atmosphere.

European Mixed Forests: definition and research perspectives [PDF]

, 2014
peer-reviewedAim of study: We aim at (i) developing a reference definition of mixed forests in order to harmonize comparative research in mixed forests and (ii) briefly review the research perspectives in mixed forests.

Microstructure Tuning and Performance Enhancement of Polystyrene Foams via Ball‐Milled Biochar–Induced Nucleation in Supercritical CO2‐Assisted Extrusion

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Sustainable polystyrene–biochar composite foams produced by supercritical CO2 extrusion with enhanced microstructure, thermal insulation, and compressive performance. ABSTRACT Developing sustainable thermal insulation materials is critical to reducing building energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions.

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

Frontiers 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.
