Acorn production plays a fundamental role in the organization and dynamics of oak forest ecosystems. Regarding acorn importance, visual survey methods have been used to estimate acorn production of oak species throughout the world. In this study, the mast indices of Brant`s oak (Quercus brantii Lindl.) were determined in a section of northern Zagros forests, almost 36 ha area, near Baneh, Kurdi...
Recent research has suggested that increasing neighbourhood tree species diversity may mitigate the impact of pests or pathogens by supporting the activities of their natural enemies and/or reducing the density of available hosts. In this study, we attempted to assess these mechanisms in a multitrophic study system of young oak (Quercus), oak powdery mildew (PM, caused by Erysiphe spp.) and a m...
Large wood of oak trees (Quercus spp.) has resided in the streams and sediments of north Missouri, USA for many thousands of years. This wood affords the opportunity to compare a chronosequence of differences in wood density over a very long period. We analyzed the relationship between the age (residence time) and density of heartwood from oak boles using tree-ring and 14C dating methods and di...
The composition and temporal variation in species recruitment were examined in relation to annual dendrochronological data to determine the historical development and successional history of an old-growth mixed-oak (Quercus) forest in northern Virginia, USA. A ridge site in the upland Piedmont, along the Potomac River, was used to survey the old-growth forest, which is dominated by Quercus alba...
Oak mortality is one of the most important management problems in the Zagros forests and the first signs of oak mortality appear in the canopy of trees. The aim of this study was to investigate the trend of oak mortality in trees with different crown-dimensions in the forests of Baneh County (northwest of Kurdistan province). For this study, four sites in the northern slopes (Saraki and Mirhesa...
Vegetation due to its root system by creating cohesion of soil particles, significantly affects hill slope mechanical properties related to shallow landslides and slope stability. In this regard, the root engineering characteristics of forest species are important. The aim of this study was to investigate the distribution pattern of persian oak and hawthorn in Zagross forests. For this purpose,...
A plethora of information contained in full-waveform (FW) Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) data offers prospects for characterizing vegetation structures. This study aims to investigate the capacity of FW LiDAR data alone for tree species identification through the integration of waveform metrics with machine learning methods and Bayesian inference. Specifically, we first conducted automatic...
Using historical General Land Office record as a reference, this study employed a landscape-scale disturbance and succession model to estimate the future cumulative effects of six alternative management plans on the tree species composition for various physiographic settings for the Mark Twain National Forest in Missouri. The results indicate that over a 200-year horizon, the relative abundance...
We evaluated the importance of epiphytic lichens in the nutrient cycling of a blue oak (Quercus douglasii) woodland in California. Each oak tree contained an average of 3.8 kg lichen biomass, totaling 590 kg per ha. For comparison, oak leaf biomass was 958 kg per ha. We compared tree growth, volume and composition of throughfall (rainfall falling though the tree canopy), litterfall, and soil nu...
In recent years, oak trees in the Zagros forests have suffered a lot of fatalities for unclear reasons. Determining the rate and severity of forest crown density changes is important for the investigation and management of these forests. This research was carried out with the aim of determining the amount of crown cover changes in the forest area of Dashtebarm in Fars province under the influen...
