The biodiversity-productivity relationship (BPR) is foundational to our understanding of the global extinction crisis and its impacts on ecosystem functioning. Understanding BPR critical for accurate valuation effective conservation biodiversity. Using ground-sourced data from 777,126 permanent plots, spanning 44 countries most terrestrial biomes, we reveal a globally consistent positive concave-down BPR, showing that continued biodiversity loss would result in an accelerating decline forest...
Although numerous species distribution models have been developed, most were based on insufficient data or used older climate change scenarios. We aimed to quantify changes in projected ranges and threat level by the years 2061-2080, for 12 European forest tree under three combined from Global Biodiversity Information Facility, EUFORGEN, inventories, we developed using MaxEnt 19 bioclimatic variables. Models scenarios-optimistic (RCP2.6), moderate (RCP4.5), pessimistic (RPC8.5)-using General...
Summary We compiled a global database for leaf, stem and root biomass representing c . 11 000 records 1200 herbaceous woody species grown under either controlled or field conditions. used this data set to analyse allometric relationships fractional distribution leaves, stems roots. tested whether scaling exponents are generally constant across plant sizes as predicted by metabolic theory, instead they change dynamically with size. also quantified interspecific variation in among families...
Late-spring frosts (LSFs) affect the performance of plants and animals across world’s temperate boreal zones, but despite their ecological economic impact on agriculture forestry, geographic distribution evolutionary these frost events are poorly understood. Here, we analyze LSFs between 1959 2017 resistance strategies Northern Hemisphere woody species to infer trees’ adaptations for minimizing damage leaves forecast forest vulnerability under ongoing changes in frequencies. Trait values...
Abstract Forests are a substantial terrestrial carbon sink, but anthropogenic changes in land use and climate have considerably reduced the scale of this system 1 . Remote-sensing estimates to quantify losses from global forests 2–5 characterized by considerable uncertainty we lack comprehensive ground-sourced evaluation benchmark these estimates. Here combine several 6 satellite-derived approaches 2,7,8 evaluate forest potential outside agricultural urban lands. Despite regional variation,...
Significance Tree diversity is fundamental for forest ecosystem stability and services. However, because of limited available data, estimates tree at large geographic domains still rely heavily on published lists species descriptions that are geographically uneven in coverage. These limitations have precluded efforts to generate a global perspective. Here, based ground-sourced database, we estimate the number biome, continental, scales. We estimated richness (≈73,300) ≈14% higher than...
Determining the drivers of non-native plant invasions is critical for managing native ecosystems and limiting spread invasive species1,2. Tree in particular have been relatively overlooked, even though they potential to transform economies3,4. Here, leveraging global tree databases5-7, we explore how phylogenetic functional diversity communities, human pressure environment influence establishment species subsequent invasion severity. We find that anthropogenic factors are key predicting...
Robinia pseudoacacia is one of the most frequent non-native species in Europe. It a fast-growing tree high economic and cultural importance. On other hand, it an invasive species, causing changes soil chemistry light regime, consequently altering plant communities. Previously published models developed for potential distribution R. concerned 2070, were based mainly on data from Western Central Europe; here we extended these findings included additional Eastern To fill gap current knowledge...
Spectra of leaf traits in northern temperate forest canopies reflect major differences longevity between evergreen conifers and deciduous broadleaf angiosperms, as well plastic modifications caused by within-crown shading. We investigated (1) whether long-lived conifer leaves exhibit similar intra-canopy plasticity short-lived broadleaves, (2) global interspecific relationships photosynthesis, nitrogen, structure identified for sun adequately describe differentiated response to light...
Abstract Purpose of Review As litter decomposition is a fundamental process in forest ecosystems, representing the link between aboveground and belowground biogeochemical processes, we developed an effect size summarisation implications management on rate, by applying multi-level meta-analysis multivariate mixed-effects meta-analytic linear models. Our aim was to review findings current literature understand how management, silvicultural treatment, operations could affect rate. Furthermore,...
Invasive tree species decrease ecosystem resilience with negative impacts on natural regeneration. The influence of alien ecosystems is unevenly recognized and does not always account for different habitat specificity. We assessed the three most frequent invasive in European forests: Prunus serotina Ehrh., Quercus rubra L., Robinia pseudoacacia L. regeneration diversity, composition, density. hypothesized that invaded forest types, comparison non-invaded, will differ terms have lower...
There are few data on fine root biomass and morphology change in relation to stand age. Based chronosequences for beech (9–140 years old), oak (11–140 years) alder (4–76 old) we aimed examine how age affects morphology. Soil cores from depths of 0–15 cm 16–30 were used the study. In contrast previously published studies that suggested maximum is reached at canopy closure stage development, found almost linear increases over within chronosequences. We did not observe any peak stage. However,...
We assessed drivers of ecological success along resource availability gradients for three invasive woody species: Prunus serotina Ehrh., Quercus rubra L. and Robinia pseudoacacia aimed to check how much invasion success, measured by invader biomass, is explained propagule pressure plant community invasibility. Using 3 years observations from 372 study plots (100 m2 each) in temperate forests Wielkopolski National Park (Poland) we investigated the hierarchy predictors partial dependencies...
Abstract Juglans regia L. is a species of great importance for environmental management due to attractive wood and nutritious fruits, but also high invasive potential. Thus, uncertainties connected with its range shift are essential management. We aimed predict the future climatic optimum J. in Europe under changing climate, assess most important factors that determine potential distribution, compare results obtained among three different global circulation models (GCMs). used distribution...
Abstract Understanding what controls global leaf type variation in trees is crucial for comprehending their role terrestrial ecosystems, including carbon, water and nutrient dynamics. Yet our understanding of the factors influencing forest types remains incomplete, leaving us uncertain about proportions needle-leaved, broadleaved, evergreen deciduous trees. To address these gaps, we conducted a global, ground-sourced assessment leaf-type by integrating inventory data with comprehensive form...
