Compensatory responses of leaf physiology reduce effects of spring frost defoliation on temperate forest tree carbon uptake

Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2023
Spring frosts can defoliate trees, reduce canopy carbon assimilation, and alter interspecific competition dynamics. These events may become more common with climate change, but our understanding of the associated ecological impacts is limited by the ...

Increasing dominance of large lianas in Amazonian forests [PDF]

, 2002
Ecological orthodoxy suggests that old-growth forests should be close to dynamic equilibrium, but this view has been challenged by recent findings that neotropical forests are accumulating carbon and biomass, possibly in response to the increasing ...

Increasing Liana Abundance and Associated Reductions in Tree Growth in Secondary Seasonally Dry Tropical Forest

Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2022
Lianas are thought to be increasing and altering tree growth and ecosystem productivity in tropical forests, but less research has focused on secondary or seasonally dry tropical forest.

Tree growth and management in Ugandan agroforestry systems: effects of root pruning on tree growth and crop yield [PDF]

, 2008
Tree root pruning is a potential tool for managing below-ground competition when trees and crops are grown together in agroforestry systems. This study investigates its effects on growth and root distribution of Alnus acuminata (HB & K), Casuarina ...

Lianas Suppress Seedling Growth and Survival of 14 Tree Species in a Panamanian Tropical Forest [PDF]

, 2016
Lianas are a common plant growth form in tropical forests, where they compete intensely with trees, decreasing tree recruitment, growth, and survival. If the detrimental effects of lianas vary significantly with tree species identity, as is often assumed,

A complementary view on the growth of directory trees [PDF]

, 2009
Trees are a special sub-class of networks with unique properties, such as the level distribution which has often been overlooked. We analyse a general tree growth model proposed by Klemm {\em et.

GM trees with increased resistance to herbivores: trait efficiency and their potential to promote tree growth

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015
Climate change, as well as a more intensive forestry, is expected to increase the risk of damage by pests and pathogens on trees, which can already be a severe problem in tree plantations.
