Understorey vegetation comprises a major portion of plant diversity and contributes greatly
to nutrient cycling and energy flow. This review examines the mechanisms involved in the …

Ecological research heavily relies on coarse‐gridded climate data based on standardized
temperature measurements recorded at 2 m height in open landscapes. However, many …

Abstract Purpose of Review Forest models are becoming essential tools in forest research,
management, and policymaking but currently are under deep transformation. In this review …

Understory plant communities are an integral component of deciduous forests, playing a
vital role in the overall health of the ecosystem. However, remote sensing of understory plant …

Plant community composition and functional traits respond to chronic drivers such as climate
change and nitrogen (N) deposition. In contrast, pulse disturbances from ecosystem …

Functional traits respond to environmental drivers, hence evaluating trait‐environment
relationships across spatial environmental gradients can help to understand how multiple …

Understory vegetation accounts for a large proportion of floral diversity. It provides various
ecosystem functions and services, such as productivity, nutrient cycling, organic matter …

Understorey communities can dominate forest plant diversity and strongly affect forest
ecosystem structure and function. Understoreys often respond sensitively but inconsistently …

The growth, structure and production of mixed beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) forests were
analysed in the Broumovsko Protected Landscape Area, Czech Republic. The objective of …

Understory vegetation accounts for most of the plant diversity, particularly in plantation
forests, and contributes significantly to energy flows and nutrient cycling. However, we lack a …
