Thermal Safety Margins and Peak Leaf Temperatures Predict Vulnerability of Diverse Plant Species to an Experimental Heatwave

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extreme heat can push plants beyond their thermal safety margin (TSM) if maximum leaf temperature (Tleaf_max) exceeds leaf critical temperature (Tcrit). The TSM is potentially useful for assessing heat vulnerability across species but needs further validation, so we exposed 50 tree/shrub species in controlled glasshouses to a 6‐day heatwave ...

Leaf Length Predicts Twig Xylem Vessel Diameter Across Angiosperms

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As plants grow taller, increasing conductive pathlength imposes hydraulic resistance, challenging the maintenance of water transport to leaves. While tip‐to‐base conduit widening along the stem helps mitigate this resistance, theoretical models and empirical data suggest that stem widening alone is insufficient to fully compensate.

Biomass and carbon stocks in restored Atlantic Forests: a systematic review

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
In restored tropical forests, a better understanding of biomass and carbon estimation methods is needed—especially biomass assessment, allometric equation choice, and the influence of local conditions. Understanding these factors is critical given forests' role in sequestering and storing atmospheric carbon.

Tree planting choices mediate wildfire damage to tropical forest restoration in eastern Madagascar

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Wildfires threaten tropical rainforest conservation and restoration around the world, and they pose a particular risk to the unique species assemblages in eastern Madagascar. Following an intense period of wildfires in 2020–2022 that impacted 33% of 46 tropical forest restoration sites installed by the non‐profit organization Green Again Madagascar ...
