When trees within forests increase their dimension, the limitation of space (and thus
resources) can cause competition-based mortality. Thus, growth and mortality interact, and …

Diversity of tree species and structure have the potential to increase various forest
ecosystem services such as stress resistance, biodiversity, and productivity. Recent studies …

Tree health declines can be caused by interactions between pests and pathogens and many
studies have shown a reduction in their damage in mixed species forests compared to …

The inclusion of N 2-fixing tree species in tree plantations has the potential to increase
biomass production compared to monocultures. Both successes and failures have been …

Ever-growing human population and nutritional demands, supply chain disruptions, and
advancing climate change have led to the realization that changes in diversity and system …

Compared with far-developed measures and methods for mono-specific forest stands, the
silvicultural prescriptions for mixed-species stands are at their early beginning. However …

Successful invasion of biological entities does not merely depend on the rigorous habitat
attributes of invaded regions, besides, the intrinsic traits of the invader species also play a …

A machine learning method called the random forest approach was used to explore the
relationship between forest productivity and stand and climate factors. Data was sampled …

Promoting tree species diversity is commonly advocated in the anticipation of predicted
increases in drought frequency and severity. However, mixing effects on drought responses …

Abstract The concept of “Ecosystem Services (ES)” has gained global importance since the
1990s. Today its link to sustainable development and human welfare is well documented …
