Positive biodiversity-productivity relationship predominant in global forests

Jingjing Liang, +92 more
- 14 Oct 2016 - 
TL;DR: A consistent positive concave-down effect of biodiversity on forest productivity across the world is revealed, showing that a continued biodiversity loss would result in an accelerating decline in forest productivity worldwide.
Journal ArticleDOI

Asynchronous carbon sink saturation in African and Amazonian tropical forests

Wannes Hubau, +132 more
- 04 Mar 2020 - 
TL;DR: Overall, the uptake of carbon into Earth’s intact tropical forests peaked in the 1990s and independent observations indicating greater recent carbon uptake into the Northern Hemisphere landmass reinforce the conclusion that the intact tropical forest carbon sink has already peaked.
Journal ArticleDOI

Crown plasticity enables trees to optimize canopy packing in mixed-species forests

TL;DR: It was found that canopy packing efficiency increased markedly in response to species richness across a range of forest types and species combinations, and positive canopy packing–diversity relationships were primarily driven by the fact that trees growing in mixture had sizably larger crowns.
Journal ArticleDOI

Allometric equations for integrating remote sensing imagery into forest monitoring programmes.

TL;DR: A global database of 108753 trees for which stem diameter, height and crown diameter have all been measured is compiled and it is found that a single equation predicts stem diameter from these two variables across the world's forests.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biodiversity and ecosystem functioning relations in European forests depend on environmental context

Sophia Ratcliffe, +63 more
- 01 Nov 2017 - 
TL;DR: There is a tendency for stronger B-EF relations in drier climates as well as in areas with longer growing seasons and more functionally diverse tree species, suggesting that as water limitation increases under climate change, biodiversity may become even more important to support high levels of functioning in European forests.
