Journal ArticleDOI

CTFS-ForestGEO: A worldwide network monitoring forests in an era of global change

Kristina J. Anderson-Teixeira, +119 more
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.
Journal ArticleDOI

Global importance of large‐diameter trees

James A. Lutz, +98 more
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

ForestGEO: Understanding forest diversity and dynamics through a global observatory network

Stuart J. Davies, +159 more
TL;DR: ForestGEO as discussed by the authors is a network of scientists and long-term forest dynamics plots (FDPs) spanning the Earth's major forest types, which together provide a holistic view of forest functioning.
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.
