Relationships between soil microorganisms, plant communities and soil characteristics in Chinese subtropical forests. - Ecosystems Ecosystems
Abstract:
Soil microbial community and activity is generally thought to be mainly determined by soil variables. This paper also looks at the influence of vegetation layer characteristics (herbs and trees, cover, mass, diversity) on soil microbes.

Site and neighborhood effects on growth of tree saplings in subtropical plantations (China)
Abstract:
Reforestation and afforestation often takes place in the form of monocultures. These have increasingly come under criticism due to their greater susceptibility to adverse environmental conditions and pathogens and because of the negative long-term...

Local neighborhood competition following an extraordinary snow break event: implications for tree-individual growth
Abstract:
Sustainable forest management practices and the increased interest of plantation forestry in species mixtures require an understanding of individual-tree growth in complex and diverse forests. Individual-tree growth has been found to be affected b...

Mechanisms promoting tree species co-existence: Experimental evidence with saplings of subtropical forest ecosystems of China
Abstract:
Questions
The maintenance of a diverse sapling pool is of particular importance for the regeneration and persistance of species-rich forest ecosystems. However, the mechanisms of co-existence of saplings have rarely been studied experimentally. D...

Ant community structure during forest succession in a subtropical forest in South-East China
Abstract:
Understanding how communities respond to environmental gradients is critical to predict responses of species to changing habitat conditions such as in regenerating secondary habitats after human land use. In this study, ground-living ants were sam...

Tree diversity promotes functional dissimilarity and maintains functional richness despite species loss in predator assemblages
Abstract:
The effects of species loss on ecosystems depend on the functional characteristics of the species, i.e. the functional diversity, in a community. However, how functional diversity is impacted by environmental changes in natural ecosystems is only ...
