Abstract: Abstract Premise Rainforests are usually too wet to burn, acting as natural barriers to fire spread and as refuges for biodiversity. However, climate change is increasing the risk of fire incursion into rainforests. Our capacity… read more here.

Abstract: Ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungal communities show temporal dynamics. Such dynamics have been mainly assessed with one year of investigations and have been related to the seasonal changes in environment. Recent study in sub-tropical region has revealed… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fevo.2024.1358676
Abstract: The cool temperate rainforests of eastern Australia are at risk from anthropogenic climate change with predicted changes in temperature, rainfall, severe weather, basal cloud layer, and droughts. Phenology and litter production are fundamental reproductive and… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/hydrology12030063
Abstract: Vegetation and subsequent ecosystem services can recover over time in forest headwaters devastated by massive disasters. However, in cold regions, their recovery rates are typically slow and often imperceptible, which makes it difficult to evaluate… read more here.
