Climate-driven shifts in competitive strength show declining dominance of evergreen conifers and rising competitiveness of broadleaved species across Europe, based on a deep-learning meta-model traine...

Afforestation and reforestation, when aligned with site-specific ecological and socioeconomic conditions, can enhance ecosystem functions and services (ESs). In the Mediterranean, European black pine ...

This study investigates the effects of forestation on temperature in Europe using climate model experiments. The findings indicate that conversion from coniferous to broadleaved trees in currently for...

Process-based forest models (PBFMs) are valuable tools for investigating the effects of climate change and alternative forest management strategies. H…

The onset of Southern Ocean convection following a slowing of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation during Heinrich events can help explain rapid CO2 increases and Antarctic warming during these events, according to Earth system modelling.

Forest ecosystems account for about one-third of the Earth’s land area, and monitoring their structure and dynamics is essential for understanding the land’s carbon cycle and its role in the greenhous...

Background Harvested wood products (HWPs) have a pivotal role in climate change mitigation, a recognition solidified in many Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) under the Paris Agreement. Integ...

A recent article published in Current Forestry Reports offers a comprehensive review of both established and emerging theories for modeling growth in forest ecosystems, with particular emphasis on the...

The Făgăraș Mountains in southern Romania are home to one of Europe’s few remaining primary old-growth forests. These forests are still untouched by human activity and boast a rich variety of trees, f...

Purpose of Review The elemental composition of organisms (the elementome) strongly determines their functional traits and their functioning. Global change presents significant potential impacts on for...

Purpose of Review Climate warming affects both nutrient availability and plant nutrient requirements, with a potential alteration of nutrient limitation to the CO2 fertilization effect on net primary ...
