Carbon budget and its response to environmental factors in young and mature poplar plantations along the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, China
Although poplar forest is the dominant plantation type in China, there is uncertainty about the carbon budget of these forests across the country. The observations, performed in 2006, of two eddy covariance flux towers on a young poplar plantation (Yueyang, Hunan province) and a mature poplar plantation (Huaining, Anhui province) provide an opportunity to understand poplar CO 2 exchange at diur...
متن کاملExotic Invasive Shrub Glossy Buckthorn Reduces Restoration Potential for Native Forest Herbs
Invasive glossy buckthorn could reduce restoration potential for understory native forest herbs by compromising their growth and biodiversity. Few studies of glossy buckthorn’s effects on forest herbs exist, and none were done in early-successional, partially open hardwood forests. This study was conducted in a mature hybrid poplar plantation invaded by buckthorn, located in southeastern Québec...
متن کاملBreeding strategies for the 21st Century: domestication of poplar
Introduction The goal of plantation culture is the economically and ecologically sustainable production of wood to meet a growing worldwide demand. At the end of the 20th Century, poplar culture has reached a fork in the road to the future, and both paths must be followed in order to achieve the goal of sustainability. One branch of the road leads to poplar forestry, where natural or extensivel...
متن کاملPerformance of poplar (populus deltoides bartr.) and its effect on wheat yield under agroforestry system in irrigated agro-ecosystem, India
The quantitative performance of wheat crop under 1-5 year old poplar plantations in irrigated agro-ecosystem was studied to ascertain the biological yield of tree and crop. Results revealed that growth and yield of wheat decreased significantly with the increase in poplar age. The per cent reduction in net grain yield was 17% under one year old poplar plantation, which increased to 52.15% under...
متن کاملResponse of ecosystem carbon fluxes to drought events in a poplar plantation in Northern China
Poplar plantations are widely used for timber production and ecological restoration in northern China, a region that experiences frequent droughts and water scarcity. An open-path eddy-covariance (EC) system was used to continuously measure the carbon, water, and energy fluxes in a poplar plantation during the growing season (i.e., April–October) over the period 2006–2008 in the Daxing District...
