8ª Edición de la Escuela de verano de Ecología de Navarra: ecólogas/os por un día
Durante los pasados 23 y 24 de junio tuvo lugar la 8ª edición de la Escuela de Verano de Ecología de Navarra de la Universidad Pública de Navarra (UPNA) con el título ‘Ecólogas/os por un día’. En la jornada se impartieron ... -
Calculadora de sostenibilidad FIRST-Heat Navarra: generando energía sostenible al reducir el riesgo de incendios forestales en comunidades rurales
El cambio climático, la expansión urbanística o el aumento del uso recreativo en zonas forestales están aumentando la probabilidad de ocurrencia de incendios forestales. Las comunidades rurales pueden afrontar la oportunidad ... -
Carbon density in boreal forests responds non-linearly to temperature: an example from the Greater Khingan Mountains, northeast China
Boreal forests play a crucial role in the global carbon (C) cycle and in climate stabilization. To better predict global C budgets, it is important to accurately estimate the size of forest C pools, and to identify the ... -
Changes in long-term light properties of a mixed conifer–broadleaf forest in Southwestern Europe
Natural and anthropogenic factors affect forest structure worldwide, primarily affecting forest canopy and its light properties. However, not only stand-replacing events modify canopy structure, but disturbances of lower ... -
Coarse woody debris' invertebrate community is affected directly by canopy type and indirectly by thinning in mixed scots pine-European beech forests
Research Highlights: Thinning and tree species alter the forest floor microclimate by modifying canopy cover, radiation, wind, and humidity. Thus, forest management can directly influence the edaphic mesofauna responsible ... -
ENSO and NAO affect long-term leaf litter dynamics and stoichiometry of Scots pine and European beech mixedwoods
Litterfall dynamics (production, seasonality and nutrient composition) are key factors influencing nutrient cycling. Leaf litter characteristics are modified by species composition, site conditions and water availability. ... -
Forest water-use efficiency: effects of climate change and management on the coupling of carbon and water processes
(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
Forest 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 ... -
Highlighting complex long-term succession pathways in mixed forests of the Pacific Northwest: a Markov chain modelling approach
Forest succession is an ecological phenomenon that can span centuries. Although the concept of succession was originally formulated as a deterministic sequence of different plant communities by F. Clements more than a ... -
Incorporating climate effects in Larix gmelinii improves stem taper models in the Greater Khingan Mountains of Inner Mongolia, northeast China
Estimating 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 ... -
Latest trends in modelling forest ecosystems: new approaches or just new methods?
Purpose of Review: Forest models are becoming essential tools in forest research, management, and policymaking but currently are under deep transformation. In this review of the most recent literature (2018–2022), we aim ... -
Long-term carbon sequestration in pine forests under different silvicultural and climatic regimes in Spain
Proactive silviculture treatments (e.g., thinning) may increase C sequestration contributing to climate change mitigation, although, there are still questions about this effect in Mediterranean pine forests. The aim of ... -
Managing forests for both downstream and downwind water
Forests and trees are key to solving water availability problems in the face of climate change and to achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. A recent global assessment of forest and water science posed ... -
Modelling forest ecosystems: a crossroad between scales, techniques and applications
When organizing this special issue, we (the guest editors) decided to carry out a quick overview of current trends in forest modelling. To do so, we used Clarivate’s Web of Science to carry out a search in the top ... -
Pinus sylvestris L. and Fagus sylvatica L. effects on soil and root properties and their interactions in a mixed forest on the Southwestern Pyrenees
Tree species alter soil properties, potentially modifying forest nutrients cycling. In the current management context in which mixed species forests are favoured over monocultures due to their biodiversity and productivity-related ... -
Propuesta de rehabilitación ambiental del Lago Uru Uru
(Instituto de Investigaciones Mineras, Universidad Técnica de Oruro (Bolivia), 2021) Artículo / ArtikuluaDurante varios siglos, la industria minera y de procesamiento de minerales ha sido la base de la economía del departamento de Oruro en Bolivia, y aparentemente, continuará siéndolo en un futuro previsible. Estas labores, ... -
Sensitivity of long-term productivity estimations in mixed forests to uncertain parameters related to fine roots.
Forest growth models are increasingly being used in forestry and ecology research as predictive tools to help developing practical guidelines and to improve understanding of the drivers of forest ecosystem functioning. ... -
SilvAdapt.Net: a site-based network of adaptive forest management related to climate change in Spain
Adaptive forest management (AFM) is an urgent need because of the uncertainty regarding how changes in the climate will affect the structure, composition and function of forests during the next decades. Current research ... -
Soil C/N ratios cause opposing effects in forests compared to grasslands on decomposition rates and stabilization factors in southern European ecosystems
Soils store an important amount of carbon (C), mostly in the form of organic matter in different decomposing stages. Hence, understanding the factors that rule the rates at which decomposed organic matter is incorporated ... -
Suitability of Totora (Schoenoplectus californicus (C.A. Mey.) Soják) for its use in constructed wetlands in areas polluted with heavy metals
Schoenoplectus californicus subsp. tatora (totora) is an endemic plant from wetlands in South America´s Altiplano region. In the endorheic Titicaca-Desaguadero-Poopó-Salar de Coipasa system (TDPS), totora can be found along ...
