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.
Journal ArticleDOI

Seeing the forest from drones: Testing the potential of lightweight drones as a tool for long-term forest monitoring

TL;DR: In this paper, a 20-ha forest dynamics plot in a species-rich subtropical forest was analyzed using ground-based stem-mapping data and topographic and edaphic variables.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spatial distributions of tree species in a subtropical forest of China

TL;DR: It is concluded that seed dispersal limitation, self-thinning and habitat heterogeneity primarily contributed to spatial patterns and species coexistence in the forest.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multispecies coexistence of trees in tropical forests: spatial signals of topographic niche differentiation increase with environmental heterogeneity

TL;DR: A statistical measure of spatial structure is applied to data from 14 large tropical forest plots to test a prediction of niche theory that is incompatible with neutral theory: that species in heterogeneous environments should separate out in space according to their niche preferences, and finds strong support for this prediction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Direct and indirect effects of climate on richness drive the latitudinal diversity gradient in forest trees

Chengjin Chu, +77 more
- 12 Dec 2018 - 
TL;DR: Results imply direct limitation of species diversity by climatic stress and more rapid (co-)evolution and narrower niche partitioning in warm climates, and support the idea that increased numbers of individuals associated with high primary productivity are partitioned to support a greater number of species.
