Journal ArticleDOI

Microclimate moderates plant responses to macroclimate warming

TL;DR: It is shown that microclimatic effects brought about by forest canopy closure can buffer biotic responses to macroclimate warming, thus explaining an apparent climatic lag.
Journal ArticleDOI

Composition and diversity of woody vegetation in silvicultural openings of southern Indiana forests

TL;DR: In this article, the authors performed a survey on 150 plots in Fagus-Acer saccharum/Arisaema Mesic Slope and Quercus alba/Parthenocissus Dry-Mesic SLope forests to determine how species composition and diversity of these forests responded to management.
Journal ArticleDOI

The influence of drought on red oak group species growth and mortality in the Missouri Ozarks

TL;DR: The effects of drought on growth of red oak group species were studied by examining basal area increment and ring width index patterns of dominant Quercuscoccinea Muenchh.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-term response of spring flora to chronic herbivory and deer exclusion in Great Smoky Mountains National Park, USA

TL;DR: Comparisons between control and exclosure plots established after the deer population eruption indicate that recovery has been largely restricted to species that were able to persist under intense herbivory, suggesting continued impacts by deer on the plant community outside the exclosures.
