Long-term changes in forest structure and species composition of an upland oak forest in Arkansas
Describing long-term dynamics in oak stands is hindered by a lack of archival data. In this study, archival data from the 1934 inventory of a 673ha area within the Sylamore Experimental Forest were compared to a recent 2002 inventory to quantify changes in forest structure and species composition of this upland oak forest in the Ozark Mountains of Arkansas. When established in 1934, the Sylamor...
متن کاملStructure and Dynamics of an Upland Old- Growth Forest at Redwood National Park, California
Many current redwood forest management targets are based on old-growth conditions, so it is critical that we understand the variability and range of conditions that constitute these forests. Here we present information on the structure and dynamics from six one-hectare forest monitoring plots in an upland old-growth forest at Redwood National Park, California. We surveyed all stems ≥20 cm DBH i...
متن کاملElevated methane concentrations in trees of an upland forest
[1] There is intense debate about whether terrestrial vegetation contributes substantially to global methane emissions. Although trees may act as a conduit for methane release from soils to atmosphere, the debate centers on whether vegetation directly produces methane by an uncharacterized, abiotic mechanism. A second mechanism of direct methane production in plants occurs when methanogens – mi...
متن کاملStress Response of Dominant Forest Tree Species South of the Caspian Sea in Relation to Soil from Coast to Upland
Distribution and growth of plant species is affected by many factors including abiotic (topography, altitude and soil) and biotic (root symbiosis) factors. In light of global warming, recent findings advocate microhabitats and micro-conditions of the root zone and canopy ambiance as determining factors in sustaining of plant populations. Although, occurrence of ectomycorrhizal (ECM) and non...
متن کاملAssessing the Relationship Between Vegetation Structure and Harvestmen Assemblage in an Amazonian Upland Forest
14 1. Arthropod diversity and non-flying arthropod food web are strongly influenced by 15 habitat components related to plant architecture and habitat structural complexity. 16 However, we still poorly understand the relationship between arthropod diversity and the 17 vegetation structure at different spatial scales. Here, we examined how harvestmen 18 assemblages are distributed across six loc...
