Abstract: Abstract Trees are increasingly planted within paved environments in cities. However, little is known regarding growth responses of trees to different pavements. In this study, three popular urban forest tree species, pine ( Pinus tabuliformis… read more here.

Abstract: Question Tree mortality can determine forest dynamics and succession, alter nutrient cycling and contribute to tree species coexistence. Understanding the mechanisms that maintain species diversity is a central goal of community ecology. In this study,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0280322
Abstract: Uncertainties about controls on tree mortality make forest responses to land-use and climate change difficult to predict. We tracked biomass of tree functional groups in tropical forest inventories across Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin… read more here.
