- Consistent influence of tree diameter and species on damage in nine eastern North America tornado blowdowns (2007, background): “…more deeply rooted species are more stable than shallowly rooted species (e.g. Elie and Ruel, 2005), although this is not always the case (Achim et al., 2005), and the presence of confounding factors usually precludes consideration of single-trait differences between species (Micoll et al., 2005).”
- Root distribution of poplar at varying densities on pastoral hill country (2010, background): “…was found for Cryptomeria japonica growing on slopes of 33o and 35o (Genet et al. 2008) and patterns of asymmetry were different for roots of trees of Picea sitchensis aged 40 years growing on slopes of 26–33o compared with on adjacent horizontal ground on similar gleyed soil (Nicoll et al. 2005).”
