Evidence of Tree Species’ Range Shifts in a Complex Landscape
Climate change is expected to change the distribution of species. For long-lived, sessile species such as trees, tracking the warming climate depends on seedling colonization of newly favorable areas. We compare the distribution of seedlings and mature trees for all but the rarest tree species in California, Oregon and Washington, United States of America, a large, environmentally diverse regio...
متن کاملUsing climate-FVS to project landscape-level forest carbon stores for 100 years from field and LiDAR measures of initial conditions
BACKGROUND Forest resources supply a wide range of environmental services like mitigation of increasing levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2). As climate is changing, forest managers have added pressure to obtain forest resources by following stand management alternatives that are biologically sustainable and economically profitable. The goal of this study is to project the effect of typic...

Crataegus pontica, Cerasus microcarpa and Amigdalus orientalis are from important accompanying woody plant species in Zagros forests and their regeneration dynamic helps to improve the regeneration of tree species. This research was carried out with the aim of investigating and recognizing the regeneration establishment pattern of C. pontica, C. microcarpa and A. orientalis in three forest site...
متن کاملAn indicator of tree migration in forests of the eastern United States
Changes in tree species distributions are a potential impact of climate change on forest ecosystems. The examination of tree species shifts in forests of the eastern United States largely has been limited to simulation activities due to a lack of consistent, long-term forest inventory datasets. The goal of this study was to compare current geographic distributions of tree seedlings (trees with ...
متن کاملElevated CO₂ does not offset greater water stress predicted under climate change for native and exotic riparian plants.
In semiarid western North American riparian ecosystems, increased drought and lower streamflows under climate change may reduce plant growth and recruitment, and favor drought-tolerant exotic species over mesic native species. We tested whether elevated atmospheric CO₂ might ameliorate these effects by improving plant water-use efficiency. We examined the effects of CO₂ and water availability o...
