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.

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
The influence of acorn crops on annual variation in rodent and bird populations
TL;DR: I recorded mast production by oaks at 12 forested sites in western Virginia for 6–12 yr and measured its impact on the abundance of small mammals, understory vegetation, and artificial-nest predation.

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.
