Composition and Dynamics of Functional Groups of Trees During Tropical Forest Succession in Northeastern Costa Rica (2010, background): “Adult tree height was correlated with both growth and mortality rates in a Malaysian mixed Dipterocarp forest (King et al. 2006).”
Functional traits shape ontogenetic growth trajectories of rain forest tree species (2011, background): “…functional trait for woody species, because it is related to stem construction costs, plant architecture and stability and stem hydraulic conductance (King et al. 2006; Chave et al. 2009; Anten & Schieving 2010; Markesteijn et al. 2011) and hence photosynthetic carbon gain (Santiago et al. 2004).”
Flowering phenology and height growth pattern are associated with maximum plant height, relative growth rate and stem tissue mass density in herbaceous grassland species (2011, methodology): “Variation in RGR of plant height may be explored in terms of LMA (leaf mass per area) and SD (stem tissue mass density), as suggested by studies on dry mass production (King et al. 2005, 2006a,b; Poorter et al. 2003; Poorter, Bongers & Bongers 2006; Poorter et al. 2008).”
Interspecific Relationships among Growth, Mortality and Xylem Traits of Woody Species from New Zealand (2010, background): “Similarly, our results do not support a relationship between shade tolerance and wood density (cf. King et al. 2006b), and we found no relationship between mortality rate and conduit diameter, as might be expected if species with wider vessels were at greater risk of cavitation.”
Topography related spatial distribution of dominant tree species in a tropical seasonal rain forest in China (2011, background): “1 Dmax, and Dmax is the diameter of the thickest tree (King et al., 2006).”
Growth and wood density predict tree mortality in Amazon forests (2008, background): “However, different species have distinct life-history strategies; wood density, in particular, may indicate mortality risk (Nascimento et al. 2005; King et al. 2006b; van Gelder et al. 2006).”
Interspecific variation in functional traits, not climatic differences among species ranges, determines demographic rates across 44 temperate and Mediterranean tree species (2010, background): “In our case, WD, Hmax and Nmass were the best predictors of RGR, in agreement with previous studies (King et al. 2005, 2006b; Sterck, Poorter & Schieving 2006; Poorter et al. 2008).”
Abiotic and biotic drivers of biomass change in a Neotropical forest (2017, background): “For example, traits and forest structure may predict the mortality rate of individual trees (Chao et al. 2008) or species (King et al. 2006b; Iida et al. 2014), but for a whole stand, stochastic processes such as the death of one very large tree or the local occurrence of heavy winds may strongly…”
Functional traits and the growth-mortality trade-off in tropical trees. (2010, methodology): “We did not use the sun-exposed leaves recommended by Cornelissen et al. (2003) because most BCI tree species reproduce in the understory and lack sun-exposed leaves (King et al. 2006 b ).”
Growth responses of neotropical trees to logging gaps (2010, background): “…>10 cm in DBH (0Æ25–6Æ47 mm year)1) encompasses almost the entire range reported in other cross-habitat studies in Costa Rica (0Æ5– 6Æ7 mm year)1; Clark & Clark 1999; Lieberman & Lieberman 1985), Bolivia (0Æ2–2Æ7 mm year)1; Brienen & Zuidema 2006) andMalaysia (0Æ6–6Æ1 mm year)1; King et al. 2006).”
Functional trait and phylogenetic tests of community assembly across spatial scales in an Amazonian forest (2010, unknown): “1 (King et al. 2006a).”
Linking functional traits and demographic rates in a subtropical tree community: the importance of size dependency (2014, background): “1, represents the potential maximum size for a species, which was defined as the upper 95th percentile stem diameter, D, for trees of the subpopulation whose D was equal to or > 10% of the observed maximum D of a population (King et al. 2006b).”
Causes and implications of the correlation between forest productivity and tree mortality rates (2011, background): “(An exception is found in seedlings of subcanopy species, which have low mortality rates [King et al. 2006c], presumably because they have not yet begun to divert resources toward reproduction.)”
Are functional traits good predictors of demographic rates? Evidence from five neotropical forests. (2008, background): “Studies from Malaysian rain forest also indicate that the growth rate of trees increases with H max (Thomas 1996, King et al. 2006).”
