Corner’s rules hold up across the growing season
The relationship between twig cross-sectional area and leaf surface area varied little over the course of the season.
A plant thought to aid Nothofagus may be out-competing it
The idea was simple, Proteaceae plants are experts at releasing phosphorus from soils, so planting them alongside Nothofagus should provide the beeches with natural fertilizer. The reality is more complex.
Hydraulic efficiency in two Patagonian trees keeps constant across a precipitation gradient
How are monospecific stands of invasive trees formed? Spatio-temporal evidence from Douglas fir invasions
Early Palaeocene fossil flowers of Patagonia
A new addition to the Patagonian Ceratopetalum five-winged fossil fruit family
Light partitioning in temperate rain forests
Disturbance, density-dependent processes and genetic relatedness
Disturbances, dispersal and biotic interactions are three major drivers of the spatial distribution of genotypes within populations, the last of which has been less studied than the other two.
Defoliation, tree growth and storage of C and N
Although lenga beech trees, completely defoliated by caterpillars of Ormiscodes amphimone, do not die, they show reduced growth for at least 2 years.
Carbon budgets in deciduous and evergreen treeline species
A study of deciduous–evergreen mixed-species forests shows that both foliar types are sink-limited when faced with decreasing temperatures.
