Tree diversity increases levels of herbivore damage in a subtropical forest canopy: evidence for dietary mixing by arthropods?
Abstract:
Aims
Plant diversity has been linked to both increasing and decreasing levels of arthropod herbivore damage in different plant communities. So far, these links have mainly been studied in grasslands or in artificial tree plantations with low spe...

Seasonal characteristics and determinants of tree growth in a Chinese subtropical forest
Abstract:
Aims
18 To quantify the seasonal differences in effects of leaf habit, species identity, initial diameter, neighborhood interaction and stand environment on tree absolute diameter growth rates in a subtropical forest in China.
Methods
We used m...

Can niche plasticity promote biodiversity-productivity relationships through increased complementarity?
Abstract:
Most experimental biodiversity-ecosystem functioning research to date has addressed
herbaceous plant communities. Comparably little is known about how forest communities
will respond to species losses, despite their importance for global biogeoc...

The effect of microclimate on wood decay is indirectly altered by tree species diversity in a litterbag study
Abstract:
Aims: We studied the influence of tree species diversity on the dynamics of coarse wood decomposition in developing forest communities in a natural, topographically heterogeneous landscape. Using the litter bag technique we investigated how and to...

Rule-based analysis of throughfall kinetic energy to evaluate biotic and abiotic factor thresholds to mitigate erosive power
Abstract:
Below vegetation, throughfall kinetic energy (TKE) is an important factor to express the potential of rainfall to detach soil particles and thus for predicting soil erosion rates. TKE is affected by many biotic (e.g. tree height, leaf area index) ...

Impact of species diversity, stand age and environmental factors on leaf litter decomposition in subtropical forests in China
Abstract:
Tree diversity is considered to influence decomposition either by changing environmental conditions or by non-additive litter mixture effects. Thus, we examined the influence of tree species richness, forest age and environmental factors on single...
