Effects of drought on the growth of young and mature temperate forests in West Virginia
… of this study was to determine the variation in aboveground production between two different aged forest stands and to evaluate the effect of drought on inter-annual variation in productivity. Aboveground net primary production (ANPP) was compared with precipitation and the Palmer Drought …

Soil Carbon and Nutrient Cycling Across Cover Types in Southern Appalachian Hardwood Forests
… above ground biomass, total stand biomass, and aboveground net primary production also exist. In conclusion, carbon and nutrient cycling varies across the level of cover type within the southern Appalachian hardwood forests. Future efforts to focus on carbon and nutrient dynamics in the context …

Climate change and plant species composition and community structure in the Central Grassland Region of North America
… to influence soil water balance, which is a primary determinant of terrestrial vegetation. Aspects of soil water balance have been shown to affect many properties of plant communities. The distribution of the earth's major biomes, for example, can be largely predicted from temperature and …

Understanding Forest Landscape Response to Global Climatic Change: An Uncertainty Evaluation Based on Spatial Modeling
… at different levels, including physiology (e.g. net primary production) and seedling establishment response at the species level, the colonization and competition response at the forest succession level, and the species composition response at the community level. For this purpose, a forest …
