The greater resilience of mixed forests to drought mainly depends on their composition: Analysis along a climate gradient across Europe (2021, background): “This will result in higher amounts of carbon stored above- and belowground in mixed forests (Forrester et al. 2006; Epron et al 2013).”
Tamm Review: On the strength of evidence when comparing ecosystem functions of mixtures with monocultures (2015, background): “Mass balance approaches have been applied in mixed-species stands when examining carbon sequestration (Forrester et al., 2006a; Epron et al., 2013).”
Mixed-species plantations of Eucalyptus with nitrogen-fixing trees: A review (2006, background): “…of E. globulus and A. mearnsii produced twice the aboveground biomass of E. globulus monocultures (Study 1 in Table 1), the total annual belowground C allocation (TBCA; 14.6 to 16.3 Mg ha-1 yr-1) was not significantly 20 different between the mixture and the monocultures (Forrester et al., 2006a).”
Mixed-species plantations: Prospects and challenges (2006, unknown): “In some instances, 217 acacias can compete strongly with eucalypts and may need to be cut back in some 218 instances (Forrester et al. 2006a), but as a short-lived pioneer species, may also die 219 out before competition becomes problematic (Erskine et al. 2005).”
Factors controlling Eucalyptus productivity: How water availability and stand structure alter production and carbon allocation (2010, methodology): “For this study, we used the third method of estimating photosynthesis, which has the additional advantage of providing estimates of the components of the carbon budget (Giardina et al., 2003; Maier et al., 2004; Ryan et al., 2004; Forrester et al., 2006; Litton et al., 2007; Stape et al., 2008; Bown”
