Global exchange and accumulation of non-native plants

Mark van Kleunen, +46 more
- 03 Sep 2015 - 
TL;DR: The results quantify for the first time the extent of plant naturalizations worldwide, and illustrate the urgent need for globally integrated efforts to control, manage and understand the spread of alien species.
Journal ArticleDOI

CTFS-ForestGEO: A worldwide network monitoring forests in an era of global change

Kristina J. Anderson-Teixeira, +119 more
TL;DR: The broad suite of measurements made at CTFS-ForestGEO sites makes it possible to investigate the complex ways in which global change is impacting forest dynamics, and continued monitoring will provide vital contributions to understanding worldwide forest diversity and dynamics in an era of global change.
Journal ArticleDOI

Global importance of large‐diameter trees

James A. Lutz, +98 more
TL;DR: Because large-diameter trees constitute roughly half of the mature forest biomass worldwide, their dynamics and sensitivities to environmental change represent potentially large controls on global forest carbon cycling.
Journal ArticleDOI

Scale-dependent relationships between tree species richness and ecosystem function in forests

Ryan A. Chisholm, +68 more
- 01 Sep 2013 - 
TL;DR: This work focuses on forests, which represent a majority of global biomass, productivity and biodiversity, and investigates the relationship between species richness and ecosystem function as measured by productivity or biomass.
