TL;DR: In this paper, continuous measurements of ecosystem carbon fluxes and precipitation from the worldwide FLUXNET network of eddy-covariance sites are exploited to investigate the effects of differences in rainfall distribution on the carbon balance of seasonally water-limited shrubland and forest sites.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used architectural analysis to describe and reconstruct polycyclism processes, periodicity and frequency on Aleppo pine in a Mediterranean site for the last 15 years, and assessed relationships between poly cyclism frequency and climate.

TL;DR: In this article, a process-based model (MAIDEN) was used to simulate pine and oak growth in the Mediterranean region of France under various climate conditions, and the results showed that the MAIDEN model is correctly able to simulate Pine and oak production in space and time.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a detailed modeling methodology for this purpose and applied two separated landscape models dedicated to human-driven agricultural and climate-driven forested neighboring patches, which were combined in the same theoretical (i.e. virtual) landscape for present as well as future scenarios by associating realistic agricultural production scenarios and B2-IPCC climate scenarios depending on the bioenergy type (crop or forest) concerned in each landscape patch.

TL;DR: In this article, three determinant factors in decomposition patterns of soil organic matter (SOM): temperature, water and carbon (C) inputs were studied. But the authors focused on the role of the above-defined environmental factors on the variability of soil C dynamics.
