Impacts of climate change on the tree lineJohn Grace
Institute of Ecology and Resource Management, University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh EH9 3JU, UK
Ann Bot 90:537-44. 2002..In regions inhabited by grazing animals, the advance of the tree line will be curtailed, although growth of trees below the tree line will of course increase substantially...
The temperature of buds may be higher than you thoughtJohn Grace
Institute of Atmospheric and Environmental Science, School of Geosciences, University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh, UK

The influence of terrestrial ecosystems on climatePatrick Meir
School of Geosciences, University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh EH8 9XP, UK
Trends Ecol Evol 21:254-60. 2006..We also emphasise the need to improve our understanding of terrestrial ecological processes that influence land-atmosphere interactions at relatively long timescales (decadal-century) as well as at shorter intervals (e.g. hourly)...
Photosynthetic parameters, dark respiration and leaf traits in the canopy of a Peruvian tropical montane cloud forestMartine Janet van de Weg
School of Geosciences, University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh, UK
Oecologia 168:23-34. 2012..e., maximum photosynthetic nitrogen use efficiency) was distinctly different from those in tropical and temperate regions, probably because the TMCF leaves compensate for reduced Rubisco activity in cool environments...
Photosynthetic carbon isotope discrimination and its relationship to the carbon isotope signals of stem, soil and ecosystem respirationLisa Wingate

School of Geosciences, University of Edinburgh, Drummond Street, Edinburgh, EH8 9XP, Scotland, UK
Plant Cell Environ 33:959-80. 2010..Initial tests showed the model to predict V(cmax) and J(max) successfully for other tropical forests characterized by a range of different foliar N and P concentrations...
The impact of soil microorganisms on the global budget of delta18O in atmospheric CO2Lisa Wingate

Carbon dioxide exchange and canopy conductance of two coniferous forests under various sky conditionsSigrid Dengel
Institute of Atmospheric and Environmental Science, School of Geosciences, University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh, UK
Oecologia 164:797-808. 2010..Diffuse radiation does not only influence short-term (hourly, daily, monthly) canopy activity but also long-term forest growth...
A relationship between galactic cosmic radiation and tree ringsSigrid Dengel
Institute of Atmospheric and Environmental Science, School of Geosciences, University of Edinburgh, UK
New Phytol 184:545-51. 2009....
The human footprint in the carbon cycle of temperate and boreal forestsFederico Magnani
Department of Fruit Tree and Woody Plant Science, University of Bologna, Bologna I 40127, Italy
Nature 447:848-50. 2007..The results demonstrate that mankind is ultimately controlling the carbon balance of temperate and boreal forests, either directly (through forest management) or indirectly (through nitrogen deposition)...
Land-use changes alter CO2 flux patterns of a tall-grass Andropogon field and a savanna-woodland continuum in the Orinoco lowlandsJosé San José
Centro de Ecologia, Instituto Venezolano de Investigaciones Cientificas, Apartado 21827, Caracas 1020 A, Venezuela
Tree Physiol 28:437-50. 2008..Although our results are specific to the Orinoco vegetational mosaic, the effects of land-use practices on the controls and physiological functions of the studied ecosystems may be generalized to other savannas...
Old-growth forests as global carbon sinksSebastiaan Luyssaert
Department of Biology, University of Antwerp, 2610 Wilrijk, Belgium
Nature 455:213-5. 2008..Old-growth forests accumulate carbon for centuries and contain large quantities of it. We expect, however, that much of this carbon, even soil carbon, will move back to the atmosphere if these forests are disturbed...
Physiological studies in tropical savannas and seasonally dry forests. PrefaceJohn Grace
Tree Physiol 28:394. 2008
Land-use changes alter radiative energy and water vapor fluxes of a tall-grass Andropogon field and a savanna-woodland continuum in the Orinoco lowlandsJosé San José
Centro de Ecologia, Instituto Venezolano de Investigaciones Cientificas, Apartado 21827, Caracas 1020 A, Venezuela
Tree Physiol 28:425-35. 2008..Soil water content fell from a maximum above 0.28 in the wet season to 0.030, 0.026, 0.030 and 0.028 m(3) m(-3) at sites S1-S4, respectively, in the dry season. Leaf area index was greatly reduced as herbaceous vegetation dried out...
