Multiple factors modulate tree growth complementarity in Central European mixed forests (2018, background): “Past studies indicated positive influences of species diversity by reducing sensitivity of fir to drought (Gazol & Camarero, 2016; Lebourgeois, Gomez, Pinto, & Merian, 2013); however, these effects could not be detected in our study, probably due to the limited number of very dry sites with the…”
Climate and competition effects on tree growth in Rocky Mountain forests (2017, background): “Positive facilitative interactions between tree species experiencing physiological stress have also been detected (e.g. Gazol & Camarero 2016; Thurm, Uhl & Pretzsch 2016).”
Species mixing reduces drought susceptibility of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) and oak (Quercus robur L., Quercus petraea (Matt.) Liebl.) – Site water supply and fertility modify the mixing effect (2020, background): “, 2015), stand functional diversity (Gazol and Camarero, 2016), stand competition (Dorman et al.”
