The seedlings and trees affected severely by mealybugs shed their leaves and look like sickly appearance and in some cases drying of branches in trees and death of seedlings. Most of the mealybugs are highly polyphagous and have many collateral hosts and hence, they can spread very rapidly ...
Second, trees can shed and regenerate leaves to adapt leaf biomass to their environment (Zanne et al. 2014). This mechanism may also make leaf biomass allocation more stable and closer to theoretical predictions as they maintain optimal metabolism. Third, adding secondary xylem and gradually lost ...
(10) With Eq. 1, we assume that all the N received and retained by the forest is used for aboveground tree biomass production. This assumption is purposefully aimed at calcu- lating potential production, not actual production. Actual production would include the production of aboveground biomass ...
Neighboring plant communities had a common effect on fungal richness in all guilds (> 10% of the explained variations, Figs.1A–C,2A; Additional file1: Tables S3, S4), whereas the effects on fungal composition depended on guilds with stronger effects on biotrophic guilds (Figs.1B–D,2B;...
The wood chips could take up to 20 years to decompose. According to the EIS, they have a “half-life” of 5 years, meaning that half of it will be gone in five years. A pile that’s 2 feet high would be 12 inches deep in 5 years, and 6 inches deep in 10 years – leaving ...
Despite this decrease in performance over Model II, Model III still out-performed the sigmoidal model for eight of the 10 He series and had only slightly inferior performance for the remaining two series, T1–60 (3.90 m) and T1–50 (3.41 m). Model improvements Fig. 8. Observed (gray ...

We control to within one degree Fahrenheit." Robbins says such precision in the dry kilns "makes all the difference in whether your target moisture coming out of the dry kiln is either 10 to 12, or it's 14 to 15 or 8 to 9. That one or two degrees inside that dry kiln makes a ...
