Allometric biomass models for european beech and silver fir: Testing approaches to minimize the demand for site-specific biomass observations
Dutca, I.; Zianis, D.; Petritan, I.C.; Braga, C.I.; Stefan, G.; Yuste, J.C.; Petrian, A.M. (Forests, 2020)In this paper, site-specific allometric biomass models were developed for European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) and silver fir (Abies alba Mill.) to estimate the aboveground biomass in Sinca virgin forest, Romania. Several ... -
Deadwood density, C stocks and their controlling factors in a beech-silver fir mixed virgin European forest
Petritan, I.C.; Mihăilă, V.V.; Yuste, J.C.; Bouriaud, O.; Petritan, A.M. (Forest Ecology and Management, 2023-07-01)Deadwood is a fundamental structural and functional component of forests, with a crucial role in supporting forest biodiversity, nutrient and carbon cycling. Precise deadwood density estimates and its relation to environmental ... -
Interactive effects of forest die-off and drying-rewetting cycles on C and N mineralization
Rodríguez, A.; Durán, J.; Rey, A.; Boudouris, I.; Valladares, F.; Gallardo, A.; Yuste, J.C. (Elsevier, 2019)Mediterranean forests will experience more frequent and intense drought periods and extreme rainfall events in the coming decades. Concomitantly, drought-induced forest die-off is likely to increase. Changes in rainfall ... -
KEYLINK: Towards a more integrative soil representation for inclusion in ecosystem scale models - II: Model description, implementation and testing
Flores, O.; Deckmyn, G.; Yuste, J.C.; Javaux, M.; Uvarov, A.; van der Linde, S.; de Vos, B.; Vereecken, H.; Jiménez, J.; Vinduskova, O.; Schnepf, A. (PeerJ, 2021)New knowledge on soil structure highlights its importance for hydrology and soil organic matter (SOM) stabilization, which however remains neglected in many wide used models. We present here a new model, KEYLINK, in which ... -
Meta-analysis reveals that the effects of precipitation change on soil and litter fauna in forests depend on body size
Martin, P.A.; Fisher, L.; Pérez-Izquierdo, L.; Biryol, C.; Guenet, B.; Luyssaert, S.; Manzoni, S.; Menival, C.; Santonja, M.; Spake, R.; Axmacher, J.C.; Yuste, J.C. (Global Change Biology, 2024-05-01)Anthropogenic climate change is altering precipitation regimes at a global scale. While precipitation changes have been linked to changes in the abundance and diversity of soil and litter invertebrate fauna in forests, ... -
Multi-temporal influence of vegetation on soil respiration in a droughtaffected forest
Barba, J.; Lloret, F.; Poyatos, R.; Molowny-Horas, R.; Yuste, J.C. (SISEF, 2018)Aboveground plant activity influences fine roots and rhizosphere activity, which is reflected on soil respiration (SR). However, it is still unclear and poorly understood the nature of plant activity control over SR, ... -
Regeneration in the understory of declining overstory trees contributes to soil respiration homeostasis along succession in a sub-Mediterranean beech forest
Rodríguez-Calcerrada, J.; Salomón, R.; Barba, J.; Gordaliza, G.G.; Yuste, J.C.; Magro, C.; Gil, L. (MDPI, 2019)Research Highlights: Tree decline can alter soil carbon cycling, given the close relationship between primary production and the activity of roots and soil microbes. Background and Objectives: We studied how tree decline ... -
The Effect of Tree Decline Over Soil Microclimate Largely Controls Soil Respiration Dynamics in a Mediterranean Woodland
Rodríguez, A.; Durán, J.; Yuste, J.C.; Valladares, F.; Rey, A. (Agricultural and Forest Meteorology, 2022)As drought-induced tree defoliation and mortality (i.e. tree decline) in the Mediterranean is expected to worsen with ongoing climate change, it is of paramount importance to understand how, why, and when tree decline ... -
Topography modulates climate sensitivity of multidecadal trends of holm oak decline
López-Ballesteros, A.; Rodríguez-Caballero, E.; Moreno, G.; Escribano, P.; Hereş, A.M.; Yuste, J.C. (Global Change Biology, 2023)Forest decline events have increased worldwide over the last decades being holm oak (Quercus ilex L.) one of the tree species with the most worrying trends across Europe. Since this is one of the tree species with the ...
