DOI: 10.1007/s10342-018-1149-5
Abstract: This study tested the assumption that in mixed-species deciduous forests, shade tolerance determines the species’ role in forming vertical structuring of the canopy layer and that persistence of light-adapted species in such forests is conditioned… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10533-020-00728-w
Abstract: Global warming is accompanied by increasing water stress across much of our planet. We studied soil biological processes and changes in soil organic carbon (SOC) storage in 30 Hungarian oak forest sites in the Carpathian… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.agrformet.2018.11.020
Abstract: Abstract Trees are the most common cause of utility damage and power outages during storms in the northeastern United States. Previous studies on tree sway and risk of wind-throw have largely been conducted in heavily… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.foreco.2021.118931
Abstract: Abstract Understorey vegetation is a key component of plant biodiversity in forests. Events of extreme drought are a potential major driver of change of this layer. Although these are predicted to increase in frequency and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/gcb.15312
Abstract: Forest resource use efficiencies (RUEs) can vary with tree age, but the nature of these trends and their underlying mechanisms are not well understood. Understanding the age dynamics of forest RUEs and their drivers is… read more here.
