Effects of crown architecture and stand structure on light absorption in mixed and monospecific Fagus sylvatica and Pinus sylvestris forests along a productivity and climate gradient through Europe (2018, background): “…are likely to vary between sites, even for the same species combination, because different resource availability along site gradients will influence stand density and could also influence biomass partitioning and allometric relationships (Forrester et al., 2017; Litton, Raich, & Ryan, 2007).”
Synthesis and future research directions linking tree diversity to growth, survival, and damage in a global network of tree diversity experiments (2018, background): “determining how much net primary production is allocated towards stem wood production versus leaf and root growth and how changes in allocation may affect timber quality, for example through increased or reduced branch dimensions (Campoe et al., 2012; Forrester et al., 2017).”
Species interactions increase the temporal stability of community productivity in Pinus sylvestris–Fagus sylvatica mixtures across Europe (2017, unknown): “biased estimations of biomass growth as mixing tree species can modify tree allometry (Pretzsch 2014; Forrester et al. 2016) as well as”
