- Abstract:
- ... Tree-ring analysis was used to study historical patterns of basal area increment (BAI) by healthy (0-5% dieback) and declined (greater than 30% dieback) overstory sugar maples (Acer saccharum Marsh.) in four stands in Pennsylvania. The objectives were to establish if and when BAI decreased in healthy and declined trees and to identify causal factors associated with decreased BAI. Reduction in BAI ...

- Abstract:

We used tree-ring chronologies from sugar maple (Acer saccharum Marsh.) stands showing various degrees of dieback (i.e., 16 sugar maple chronologies from healthy trees and 11 from damaged trees), distributed throughout the species range in southern Quebec, to analyze the spatial extent and timing of the recent sugar maple decline. Furthermore, six tree-ring chronologies of American beech (Fagus gr ...

- Abstract:
- ... This study investigated the growth responses to defoliation, fire-exposure and climate factors of a widespread Africana savanna tree, Bauhinia thonningii Schumacher, at a site in central Zambia. Experimental trees (n = 47) were either exposed to fire (n = 12) in the first half of the dry season or protected from fire (n = 35). Some of the fire-protected trees (n = 12) were subjected to artificial ...

- Abstract:

A total of 150 plots were established in 25 study areas as part of a regional-scale study (CIPHA). Aspen health and mortality were assessed annually during 2000-2005, and changes in stem biomass were estimated using tree-ring analysis and plot- ...

- Abstract:
- ... Oak decline is a chronic problem in Missouri Ozark forests. Red oak group species are most susceptible and decline is reportedly more severe on droughty, nutrient-poor sites. However, it was not clear whether greater decline severity was caused by poor site conditions or is simply due to the greater abundance of red oak group species found on poorer sites. We conducted this study to determine whet ...

The objectives of this work were to investigate and describe the aetiology of a Scots pine dieback in the Aosta Valley (western Italian Alps) in 2005. Surveys were conducted in three forest stands. Crown transparency was assessed to evaluate the incidence and severity of dieb ...

On the basis of 90 RAMS markers, pathogen intra- and inter-population variability, as well as its dependency on geographic distance and ...

Widespread drought‐induced forest mortality has been documented across multiple tree species in North America in recent decades, but it is a poorly understood component in terrestrial carbon (C) budgets. Recent severe drought in concert with elevated temperature likely triggered widespread forest mortality of trembling aspen (Populus tremuloides), the most widely distributed tree species in North ...

The wood-inhabiting fungal pathogens degrade wood tissues in the colonization areas and induce, at distance, characteristic foliar symptoms. These effects have been previously partly correlated with the secretion of polypeptides (PFpal) presenting toxic effects o ...

- Abstract:
- ... Forest carbon stocks are a time-integrated manifestation of various phenomena and processes ranging from tree growth and mortality to natural and human disturbances. Understanding the effects of environmental and human activities is critically important in vulnerable ecosystems like arid and semi-arid forests, given climate variability coupled with historical human activities. Zagros forests are o ...

- Abstract:
- ... In January 2015, an investigation of 800 ha of declining oaks in Istria and Cres (Croatian North Adriatic karst area) revealed intense dieback symptoms on Quercus cerris, Q. pubescens, and Q. ilex. Oaks make up 82 to 100% of the trees in these stands. The disease was recorded on 357 trees/ha at the most affected site. Black stromata of various sizes were observed on branches and stems of oaks with ...

- Abstract:
- ... Forest dieback of mountainous areas is a common problem in almost all regions of the world. This process is characterized by high variability and is independent of whether the process is caused by climate changes, insect pests or human impact on the environment, particularly environmental pollution. This state of affairs is probably influenced not only by unusual atmospheric conditions, unusual st ...

Knowledge of the large-scale ecosystem processes involved and how they might be influenced by climate variables is highly relevant today. For tidal-wetland sites well within the latitudinal range of the mostly tropical mangrove communities, ...

- Abstract:
- ... Oak trees (Quercus spp.) develop a taproot system which extends several meters deep and enables them to survive periods of water deficit that occur during their long lifespan. Regeneration forestry practices disturb the natural development and proportion of oak root systems by repeated undercutting of the taproots of seedlings in nurseries, or the repeated cutting of stems in coppice systems. Thus ...

- Abstract:

Common ash (Fraxinus excelsior L.) is an important timber species that is widespread in broadleaved woodlands across Europe, where it is currently declining due to the fungal pathogen (Hymenoscyphus fraxineus (T. Kowal) Baral et al., 2014) causing ash dieback. Using the UK as our case study, we assess: (1) likely woodland composition following ash dieback and (2) choice of replacement species for ...

Climatic conditions and related variables, such as evapotranspiration, vary in response to topographical complexity. This complexity plays an important role in the provision of climate refugia.

The negative effect of air pollution on mountain spruce stands culminated in the 70s – 90s of the 20ᵗʰ century, when an extensive dieback and disturbance of stands occurred in the Krkonoše Mts., the Czech Republic. Dendrochronological analysis was used on ten permanent research plots established in 1976–1980 to document the dynamics of radial increment of Norway spruce (Picea abies [L.] Karst.). T ...

- Abstract:

Despite its dominance in Central Europe, beech cultivation is not without risks, because drought periods and direct solar radiation of the stem are suspected of causing branch dieback, sunburn and predisposition to attack by the European beech splendour beetle Agrilus viridis. Outbreaks of this beetle occurred in Germany in the early 1950s and in Hungary between 2003 and 2006 following severe prec ...

In Spain, pistachio has been traditionally cultivated in marginal‐dry areas with unfavourable climatic conditions for plant diseases. Consequently, little attention has been given to research on pistachio diseases until recently. Symptoms of branch dieback and cankers, and shoot and panicle blight have been recently observed ...

- Abstract:
- ... In Mediterranean areas where drought-induced forest dieback and tree mortality have been widely reported, it is still under debate how the likely risks of climate change will affect tree growth and consequently forest productivity. Increasing tree mortality has been associated not only to increased drought, but also to a lack of management in many dense pine forests and plantations, where warming ...

Natural disturbances usually leave biological or structural legacies which are important for early-successional species. Nevertheless, these legacies are usually eliminated by forest managers through salvage logging. Here, we invest ...

To manage water stress in some vine areas, culture practice base ...

The first hypotheses explaining forest dieback were associated with industrial air pollution (acid rain). At the end of the century, new hypotheses emerged that supported critical climate-induced aridization to explain forest d ...
