Drought-induced changes in wood density are not prevented by thinning in Scots pine stands
(MDPI, 2018)
Artículo / Artikulua,
Density is an important wood mechanical property and an indicator of xylem architecture
and hydraulic conductivity. It can be influenced by forest management and climate. We studied the
impact of thinning and climate ...
Modelling the management of forest ecosystems: importance of wood decomposition
(Wiley, 2018)
Artículo / Artikulua,
Scarce and uncertain data on woody debris decomposition rates are available for calibrating forest ecosystem models, owing to the difficulty of their empirical estimations. Using field data from three experimental sites which ...
Sustainable management of metasequoia glyptostroboides plantation forests in Shanghai
(MDPI, 2018)
Artículo / Artikulua,
Urban forestry is increasingly used as a tool for climate change mitigation and for providing environmental services to inhabitants of urban areas. However, tree species used in urban forestry are usually different from ...
Bringing the natives back: identifying and alleviating establishment limitations of native hardwood species in a conifer plantation
(MDPI, 2018)
Artículo / Artikulua,
To facilitate the reintroduction of five native late-successional Taiwanese Fagaceae species
into Japanese cedar (Cryptomeria japonica (D.) Don) plantations, we experimented with methods to
alleviate their establishment ...
Tree-to-tree competition in mixed European beech-Scots pine forests has different impacts on growth and water-use efficiency depending on site condition.
(WileyBritish Ecological Society, 2018)
Artículo / Artikulua,
Mixed conifer-hardwood forests can be more productive than pure forests and they are increasingly considered as ecosystems that could provide adaptation strategies in the face of global ...
Temporal interactions among throughfall, type of canopy and thinning drive radial growth in an Iberian mixed pine-beech forest
(Elsevier, 2018)
Artículo / Artikulua,
Many factors can influence tree growth over time such as different forest management practices, climate or tree-to-tree interactions, especially in mixed forests. We show in this work how the temporal growth patterns ...
Physiological and biochemical characterization of rootlets response to salt stress in two Medicago truncatula Gaertn. ecotypes
(Japanese Society for Root Research, 2018)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Legumes are very important plants both ecologically and agriculturally because they are able to interact symbiotically with rhizobia for biological nitrogen fixation and soil fertilization. Medicago truncatula Gaertn. is ...
Complementary evaluation of iron deficiency root responses to assess the effectiveness of different iron foliar applications for chlorosis remediation
(Frontiers Media, 2018)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Iron deficiency in plants is caused by a low availability of iron in the soil, and its main visual symptom is leaf yellowing due to a decrease in chlorophyll content, along with a reduction in plant growth and fruit quality. ...
Integration of a communal henhouse and community composter to increase motivation in recycling programs: overview of a three-year pilot experience in Noáin (Spain)
(MDPI, 2018)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
This paper presents a three-year pilot experience of a new municipal waste management system developed in Navarre, Spain that integrates composting and hens. The aim of this new system is to motivate the general public to ...
