Climate-forest-water-people relations: seven system delineations
Noordwijk, Meine van; Creed, Irena F.; Jones, Julia A.; Wei, Xiaohua; Gush, Mark; Blanco Vaca, Juan Antonio ; Sullivan, Caroline A.; Bishop, Kevin; Murdiyarso, Daniel; Xu, Jianchu; Claassen, Marius; McNulty, Steven G.; Ellison, David (2018) Capítulo de libro / Liburuen kapituluaIn this chapter, we review current scientific understanding and hypotheses at seven system delineations that build up from the level of a ‘tree’ interacting with water, to that of a social-ecological system at the scale ... -
Determinants of the forest-water relationship
McNulty, Steven G.; Archer, Emma; Gush, Mark; Noordwijk, Meine van; Ellison, David; Blanco Vaca, Juan Antonio ; Xu, Jianchu; Bishop, Kevin; Wei, Xiaohua; Vira, Bhaskar; Creed, Irena F.; Mukherji, Aditi (2018) Capítulo de libro / Liburuen kapituluaOur analysis of forest-water relations addresses four important subsystems of a linked planetary social-ecological system: climate, forests, water and people. In this chapter, we consider how each of these subsystems ... -
Determining suitable selection cutting intensities based on long term observations on above-ground forest carbon, growth, and stand structure in Changbai Mountain, Northeast China
Liu, Yang; Blanco Vaca, Juan Antonio ; Wei, Xiaohua; Kang, Xingang; Wang, Weifeng; Guo, Yanrong (Taylor & Francis, 2014) Artículo / ArtikuluaWe studied the effects of different cutting intensities (0%, 5-10%, 15%, and 20% basal area removal) on stand growth, structure, and net carbon storage in spruce-fir (Picea asperata Mast.-Abies fabri Mast. Craib) and ... -
Effects of nitrogen deposition on carbon sequestration in Chinese fir forests ecosystems
Wei, Xiaohua; Blanco Vaca, Juan Antonio ; Jiang, Hong; Kimmins, J.P. (Hamish) (Elsevier, 2012) Artículo / ArtikuluaNitrogen deposition and its ecologic effects on forest ecosystems have received global attention. In this paper, the ecosystem model FORECAST was used to assess the effects of nitrogen deposition on carbon sequestration ... -
Evaluation of the effects of forest management strategies on carbon sequestration in evergreen broad-leaved (Phoebe bournei) plantation forests using FORECAST ecosystem model
Wang, Weifeng; Wei, Xiaohua; Liao, Weiming; Blanco Vaca, Juan Antonio ; Liu, Yuanqiu; Liu, Shirong; Liu, Guohua; Zhang, Lu; Guo, Xiaomin; Guo, Shengmao (Elsevier, 2013) Artículo / ArtikuluaIn the context of global climate change, it is critical to study how different forest management practices affect forest carbon sequestration. This is especially important for forest managers and policy makers who will ... -
Forest landscape hydrology in a "new normal" era of climate and land use change
Jones, Julia A.; Wei, Xiaohua; Noordwijk, Meine van; Creed, Irena F.; Gush, Mark; Ellison, David; Blanco Vaca, Juan Antonio ; Bishop, Kevin; McNulty, Steven G.; Archer, Emma (2018) Capítulo de libro / Liburuen kapituluaThis chapter aims to clarify the effects that changing climate and quantity, quality and pattern of tree cover in forests have on the way water becomes available for human use and ecosystem integrity. To do this, the ... -
Forest water-use efficiency: effects of climate change and management on the coupling of carbon and water processes
Zhang, Zhiqiang; Zhang, Lu; Xu, Hang; Creed, Irena F.; Blanco Vaca, Juan Antonio ; Wei, Xiaohua; Sun, Ge; Asbjornsen, Heidi; Bishop, Kevin (Elsevier, 2023) Artículo / ArtikuluaForests are essential in regulating global carbon and water cycles and are critical in mitigating climate change. Water-use efficiency, defined by the ratio of plant productivity per unit water use, is widely used to ... -
A global synthesis on the effects of forest thinning on hydrological processes: implications for forest management
Campo, Antonio D. del; Otsuki, Kyoichi; Serengil, Yusuf; Blanco Vaca, Juan Antonio ; Yousefpour, Rasoul; Wei, Xiaohua (Elsevier, 2022) Artículo / ArtikuluaForest thinning can significantly affect hydrological processes. However, these effects largely vary with forest types, climate, thinning intensity, and hydrological variables of interest. Understanding these effects and ... -
Impacts of enhanced nitrogen deposition and soil acidification on biomass production and nitrogen leaching in Chinese fir plantations
Blanco Vaca, Juan Antonio ; Wei, Xiaohua; Jiang, Hong; Jie, Cheng-Yue; Xin, Zan-Hong (NRC Research Press, 2012) Artículo / ArtikuluaAtmospheric pollution levels in China are increasing quickly. Experience from other polluted regions shows that tree growth could be affected, but long-term effects of N deposition and soil acidification on Chinese forests ... -
Incorporating climate effects in Larix gmelinii improves stem taper models in the Greater Khingan Mountains of Inner Mongolia, northeast China
Liu, Yang; Trancoso, Ralph; Ma, Qin; Yue, Chaofang; Wei, Xiaohua; Blanco Vaca, Juan Antonio (Elsevier, 2020) Artículo / ArtikuluaEstimating timber volume and carbon stock in forests is fundamental for silviculture and for accurate estimation of national and global carbon budgets. Taper models are important tools for predicting diameter at any height ... -
Significant increase in ecosystem C can be achieved with sustainable forest management in subtropical plantation forests
Subtropical planted forests are rapidly expanding. They are traditionally managed for intensive, short-term goals that often lead to long-term yield decline and reduced carbon sequestration capacity. Here we show how it ... -
Sustainable management of metasequoia glyptostroboides plantation forests in Shanghai
Zheng, Ji; Blanco Vaca, Juan Antonio ; Wei, Xiaohua; Liu, Chunjiang (MDPI, 2018) Artículo / ArtikuluaUrban forestry is increasingly used as a tool for climate change mitigation and for providing environmental services to inhabitants of urban areas.
