Nutrient dynamics of decomposing litter and their effects on subsequent mass loss and nutrient release in a subtropical forest

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology
Leaf litter decomposition is a key ecological process that strongly regulates carbon sequestration and nutrient cycling in forests. While the effects of climate and initial litter nutrient chemistry on mass loss are well established, the dynamics of ...

Connecting dynamic vegetation models to data - an inverse perspective

open access: yes, 2012
Dynamic vegetation models provide process-based explanations of the dynamics and the distribution of plant ecosystems. They offer significant advantages over static, correlative modelling approaches, particularly for ecosystems that are outside their ...

Soil respiration of four forests along elevation gradient in northern subtropical China

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2019
Background and aims Soil respiration is the second‐largest terrestrial carbon (C) flux, and soil temperature and soil moisture are the main drivers of temporal variation in soil respiration and its components. Here, we quantified the contribution of soil

Plant economics spectrum governs leaf nitrogen and phosphorus resorption in subtropical transitional forests

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology
Background Leaf nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) resorption is a fundamental adaptation strategy for plant nutrient conservation. However, the relative roles that environmental factors and plant functional traits play in regulating N and P resorption ...

The role of climate, forest fires and human population size in Holocene vegetation dynamics in Fennoscandia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Questions: We investigated the changing role of climate, forest fires and human population size in the broad-scale compositional changes in Holocene vegetation dynamics before and after the onset of farming in Sweden (at 6,000 cal yr BP) and in Finland ...
