Climate‐induced yellow‐cedar decline on the island archipelago of Haida Gwaii

open access: yesEcosphere, 2021
The global rise in temperature and associated changes in climate have led to decline of forests around the globe, across multiple species and ecosystems. Yellow‐cedar (Callitropsis nootkatensis) decline is one of the most severe in North America.

Morphological correlates of fire-induced tree mortality in a central Amazonian forest. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Tree characteristics were recorded from 2829 standing trees in 24 0.25-ha terra firme forest plots in central Amazonia, 3 y after a surface fire had swept through the study area.

Research Trends and Methodological Approaches of the Impacts of Windstorms on Forests in Tropical, Subtropical, and Temperate Zones: Where Are We Now and How Should Research Move Forward?

open access: yesPlants, 2020
Windstorm is one of the destructive natural disturbances, but the scale-link extent to which recurrent windstorms influenced forests ecosystems is poorly understood in a changing climate across regions.

Assessment of tree mortality on the Estonian Network of Forest Research Plots/ Puude väljalangevuse hindamine metsa kasvukäigu püsiproovitükkidel

open access: yesMetsanduslikud Uurimused, 2014
Assessment of tree mortality provides deeper understanding of forest structure and functioning. This enables evaluation of stand sustainability and provides information on stand productivity, diversity and health condition. Tree mortality can be assessed

Tree Mortality Risks Under Climate Change in Europe: Assessment of Silviculture Practices and Genetic Conservation Networks

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
General Context: Climate change can positively or negatively affect abiotic and biotic drivers of tree mortality. Process-based models integrating these climatic effects are only seldom used at species distribution scale.Objective: The main objective of ...

Climate and crown damage drive tree mortality in Southern Amazonian edge forests [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
1. Tree death is a key process for our understanding of how forests are and will respond to global change. The extensive forests across the southern Amazonia edge—the driest, warmest and most fragmented of the Amazon regions—provide a window onto what ...

Temporal declines in tree longevity associated with faster lifetime growth rates in boreal forests

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2018
Global change has been linked to significant increases in tree mortality in the world’s forests. Reduced tree longevity through increased growth rates has been suggested as one of the mechanisms responsible for the temporal increases in tree mortality ...

Mutually inclusive mechanisms of drought‐induced tree mortality [PDF]

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, 2020
Abstract Unprecedented tree dieback across Central Europe caused by recent global change‐type drought events highlights the need for a better mechanistic understanding of drought‐induced tree mortality. Although numerous physiological risk factors have been identified, the importance of two principal mechanisms ...

tshearm/PostFire-Tree-Mortality: Code for "Predictive accuracy of post-fire conifer death declines over time in models based on crown and bole injury"

open access: yes, 2022
This code was used in the analysis of post-fire tree mortality in the manuscript "Predictive accuracy of post-fire conifer death declines over time in models based on crown and bole injury " currently accepted in the journal Ecological Applications. I am
