The depth of sampling is an important factor for evaluating soil stability. The objective of this study was to test soil aggregate particle-size fractions and soil organic carbon (SOC) in water-stable aggregate by vegetation restoration through 0–60 cm soil profile. We collected soil samples in 30 years old Robinia psendoacacia (Rr); Platycladus orientalis (Po); Pinus tabulaeformis (Pt); abando...

To identify why tree growth differs by afforestation type is a matter of prime concern in forestry. A study was conducted to determine why oriental arborvitae (Platycladus orientalis) grows better in the presence of black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia) than in monoculture. Different types of stands (i.e., monocultures and mixture of black locust and oriental arborvitae, and native grassland as a...

Natural regeneration is the natural process by which plants replace themselves. It is a cost-effective way to re-establish vegetation, and it helps to preserve genetic identity and diversity. In this study, we investigated the natural regeneration of trees in three types of afforested stands in the Taihang Mountains, China, which were dominated by Robinia pseudoacacia (black locust), Quercus va...

To investigate the interactive effects of increasing [CO(2)] and heat wave occurrence on isoprene (IE) and methanol (ME) emissions, Platanus orientalis was grown for one month in ambient (380 micromol mol(-1)) or elevated (800 micromol mol(-1)) [CO(2)] and exposed to high temperature (HT) (38 degrees C/4 h). In pre-existing leaves, IE emissions were always higher but ME emissions lower as compa...

Muğla İli Ula İlçesi Merkez ve bağlı mahallelerinde 2016-2018 yılları arasında yaptığımız etnobotanik alan çalışmamızda farklı yaş sosyal kategorilerden kişilerle görüşülmüştür. Çalışma alanımız olan Ula’da 53 familyaya ait 123 bitki türü kaydedilmiştir. Bu bitkilerden 70 tanesi yörede doğal yayılışa sahip olup,45 de halk tarafından yetiştirilmektedir.10 ise hiçbir şekilde yetiştirilmemektedir....

Urbanization and climate change are two inevitable megatrends of this century. Knowledge about the growth responses urban trees to is utmost importance towards future management green infrastructure with aim a sustainable provision environmental ecosystem services. Using tree-ring records, study analyzed response by stem diameter at breast height (DBH) 1178 in seven large cities worldwide, incl...

The goal is to protect semi-finished/finished wood components from burning/fires in a variety of settings (wooden buildings, historical sites, restoration, etc.). Natural (organic) sea mussel shells (Chamelea gallina) were crushed and prepared with water various solution concentrations (10%, 15%) after the pyrolysis process, either alone or together boron compounds (borax). limiting oxygen inde...
