Spatio-temporal water uptake patterns of tree saplings are not altered by interspecific interaction in the early stage of a subtropical forest
Abstract:
Complementary resource use has often been claimed to explain positive effects of plant diversity on
ecosystem functioning, but the underlying mechanisms of complementarity have rarely been directly
quantified in forest systems. The aim of this s...

Shifts in community leaf functional traits are related to litter decomposition along a secondary forest succession series in subtropical China
Abstract:
We investigated shifts in community weighted mean traits (CWM) of 14 leaf functional traits along a secondary successional series in an evergreen broadleaf forest in subtropical southeast China. Most of the investigated traits have been reported t...

A Unique Nest-Protection Strategy in a New Species of Spider Wasp
Abstract:
Hymenoptera show a great variation in reproductive potential and nesting behavior, from thousands of eggs in sawflies to just a dozen in nest-provisioning wasps. Reduction in reproductive potential in evolutionary derived Hymenoptera is often faci...

Tree species and functional traits but not species richness affect interrill erosion processes in young subtropical forests
Abstract:
Soil erosion is seriously threatening ecosystem functioning in many parts of the world. In this context, it is assumed that tree species richness and functional diversity of tree communities can play a critical role in improving ecosystem services...

Tree Diversity Enhances Stand Carbon Storage but Not Leaf Area in a Subtropical Forest
Abstract:
Research about biodiversity–productivity relationships has focused on herbaceous ecosystems, with results from tree field studies only recently beginning to emerge. Also, the latter are concentrated largely in the temperate zone. Tree species dive...

Impact of tree diversity, successional stage, and environmental factors on leaf litter decomposition in an evergreen broad-leaved forest in subtropical China.
Abstract:
Background and aims
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 environmen...
