Future Forests and Future Foresters – Forest Management in a Changing New Zealand Landscape

Peter Casey, Paul Quinlan, Thomas Paul, Sebastian Leuzinger

New Zealand’s forest ecosystems are undergoing accelerated transformation, driven by changing climate, periodic disturbance events and biological invasions. Societal expectations of forests are also evolving. These forces and changing attitudes are challenging the current strongly entrenched dichotomies in New Zealand forest management, …

The researcher effect can outweigh the original effect in meta-analyses of global change experiments

Sebastian Leuzinger, Kevin Van Sundert, Martin Karl‐Friedrich Bader, Yalin Hu et autres

During meta-analyses, a critical stage consists of the numerical extraction of the data from the original publications. While in the medical disciplines, there are often stanard operating procedures on how exactly to extract those numbers that are then expressed as effect sizes. …

Moving from an experiment‐dominated to an observation‐dominated era in global change impact research on vegetation

Sebastian Leuzinger, Belinda E. Medlyn

Summary In 1992, at the start of the senior author's career as a plant ecologist, climate change was perceived as something that would occur in future, and efforts were focussed on predicting what the impacts of those future changes on ecosystems would …

Nectar traits of New Zealand trees vary across climatic zones

Johanna M. van Delden, Sebastian Leuzinger, Sarah J. Richardson, Michael J. Clearwater

Introduction: To evaluate whether plant traits (nectar volume, concentration, sugar mass, flower fresh mass, and size) vary regionally in response to climate, we examined eight native New Zealand tree species. Methods: Flowers were sampled using micropipettes from seven sites across five climate …

Effects of litter input on soil aggregation and aggregate carbon turnover differ among three subtropical forests in southeastern China

Ya‐Lin Hu, Zhiheng Zheng, Sebastian Leuzinger

Background and aims Litter input plays important roles in controlling soil aggregation and aggregate carbon (C) content. However, the effects of litter input on soil aggregate C turnover in different forest types remain unclear. Methods We examined the changes of aggregate mass …

Plant functional traits affect biomass responses to global change: A meta‐analysis

Mingyan Hu, Han Y. H. Chen, Scott X. Chang, Sebastian Leuzinger et autres

Abstract Whether and how the responses of above‐ (AGB) and below‐ground biomass (BGB) and above‐ground net primary production (ANPP) to global changes are linked to plant functional traits is unclear. We conducted a global meta‐analysis based on 2561 observations from 318 manipulative …

Light Limitation and Foliar Pathogenic Infection Impact Phloem Anatomy and Function in Pinus radiata D. Don

Mireia Gómez‐Gallego, Damien Sellier, Alan Dickson, Martin Karl‐Friedrich Bader et autres

Phloem plays a major role in plant physiology, health and growth. However, little research has addressed the impact of biotic and abiotic stressors on phloem structure and development. This study extends recent interest on stress impact on phloem to further understand its …

A numerical model of coupled phloem-xylem flows for dynamic long-distance transport in trees

Damien Sellier, Youcef Mammeri, Emilie Peynaud, Mireia Gómez‐Gallego et autres

In trees, the vascular system is dual in structure and func)on. Sap flows upwards in the xylem to hydrate )ssues and refill reserves from transpira)on loss. In the leaves, some of the water recirculates into the phloem and sap, loaded with photoassimilates, …
