Fire severity and recovery across Europe: exploring diversity and landscape configuration effects, Amin, Eatidal, Dantas, Cássio F, Ienco, Dino, Alleaume, Samuel, Luque, Sandra

Riparian zones are transitional habitats linking terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems and connecting diverse socio-ecological landscapes within catchments. They naturally support high biodiversity and p...

Species and soil wetness shape tree growth responses to warming and drought in boreal old-growth forests, Axén, Hanna, Metcalfe, Daniel B., Ahlström, Anders, Jonsson, Micael

We investigated wood decomposition in rivers across seven catchments and 72 river locations in Europe and found that temperature was the main driver of decomposition rate, with a predicted 4.3% incre...

A new study finds old-growth forests in Sweden store far more carbon than the industrial tree plantations that are rapidly replacing them, with soil accounting for most of the difference. Protecting u...

Research in the tropics is unevenly distributed across regions and biomes. Here, the authors find that moist broadleaf forests account for 73% of all tropical citations but cover 29% of the land area,...

A global analysis reveals regional trends of net forest ageing but also that widespread stand-replacing disturbances, such as fire and harvest, are driving declining forest age in many areas, often ac...

Forests with higher tree species richness show greater photosynthesis by capturing more sunlight, highlighting the essential role of biodiversity in enhancing carbon uptake and supporting the global c...

Effective environmental policies for the tropics depend on robust, representative scientific data. However, the extent to which existing field research accurately represents the vast environmental div...

Under field conditions, acquisitive tree species generally grow slowly, whereas conservative species show generally higher realized growth, owing to their ability to tolerate unfavourable environmenta...

Nordic and Canadian forests store substantial amounts of carbon (C) and are largely managed in a silvicultural system with clear-cut harvest. Previous…

Long-term warming of soils causes carbon loss, whereas chronic nitrogen enrichment causes carbon gain. Here, in an experiment that combined both factors, soil respiration was significantly higher than...

Soils from 30 grasslands across Europe were subjected to 4 contrasting extreme climatic events under drought, flood, freezing and heat conditions, with the results suggesting that soil microbiomes fro...

Nordic and Canadian forests store substantial amounts of carbon (C) and are largely managed in a silvicultural system with clear-cut harvest. Previous meta-anal

Extensive study examines damage to Swedish trees and how the forest industry can become more profitable.
