The study summarizes and analyzes data on forest litter properties in the larch forests of the Russian Far East, which are subject to frequent fire disturbances. Based on a representative database, spatial variability pa...

Abstract Peatlands are significant carbon stores, and yet their carbon stocks in coastal British Columbia, Canada, remain largely unquantified. We conducted a field assessment to estimate above- and belowground carbon st...

Climate change-induced weather extremes are increasing the intensity and frequency of disturbance events, posing a major threat to forests globally. In Central Europe, hotter and drier summers, such as those during the 2...

Abstract The rising demand for timber, alongside declining natural forests, has driven rapid growth of plantation forestry, especially smallholder woodlots in sub-Saharan Africa. Despite their increasing importance for l...

Tropical forests hold the most species yet face the greatest threats and knowledge gaps. To improve tropical biodiversity knowledge we combined satellite-based LiDAR with in situ bird, mammal, and acoustic soundscape dat...

Abstract Physical sciences are essential to the predictive modeling of complex environmental systems, particularly environmental monitoring and sustainability applications, as they provide the deterministic foundation re...

Abstract Primary temperate forests serve as a natural framework for studying linkages between vegetation, soil properties and microbial communities under minimal human disturbance. Here, we characterize how soil bacteria...

This study presents a comparative analysis of the effectiveness of various regression models for estimating forest stand phytomass stocks in spruce forests developed on Al-Fe-humic podzols at the northern tree line in th...

Relevance and aim. Korean pine-broadleaf forests of the southern Sikhote-Alin are unique forest ecosystems with high biological value and complex structure. Under ongoing forest exploitation and degradation of old-growth...

For much of prehistory, the landscapes of southeast Norway were deeply shaped by dense forests. Yet archaeological narratives of the period from around 2350 BCE onward—the Late Neolithic and Nordic Bronze Age—have la...

Changes in forest cover from forest to non-forest systems alter habitat structure and resource availability, thereby affecting the functional composition of bird communities. This study aimed to identify and compare the ...

This study employs a comprehensive review of 45 studies to assess the economic value of ecosystem services from different forest types across India. To estimate timeframes, the values of ecosystem services reported in th...

Abstract Dormancy, as a microbial survival strategy, plays a crucial role in sustaining microbial diversity. However, the large-scale distribution patterns of microbial dormancy and drivers remain poorly understood. Here...

Microorganisms are important regulators of soil organic carbon (SOC) accumulation and stabilization, which is modulated by soil minerals, especially iron (Fe) oxides. Here, we analyzed soils from different forest types (...

Among the many natural disturbances that affect Canada's boreal and temperate forest biomes, wildfire has the greatest impact on forest productivity, landscape structure, timber supply and greenhouse gas emissions. Fire ...

ARTICLE HIGLIGHTS - First carbon mapping of Palsabangon watershed using InVEST model - Combines remote sensing and field data across four key vegetation types - Reveals mangroves store highest carbon per hectare among la...
