Abstract: Many studies highlight the role of mixed versus monospecific forests to supply numerous ecosystem services. Most reports of positive mixture effects on carbon storage focus on mixtures that combine tree species with contrasting traits, but… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract The presence of shade-tolerant trees in the understory of mixed-species stands could produce a state of reverse growth dominance, but the growth dynamics between species has been little studied. Here, an analytical framework that… read more here.

Abstract: An increasing number of investigations into mixed forest stands shows clear interactions between complementarity and stand and site characteristics. One of the least-investigated mixture types are mixed stands of Norway spruce and European larch. We… read more here.
