Influences of evergreen gymnosperm and deciduous angiosperm tree species on the functioning of temperate and boreal forests
It has been recognized for a long time that the overstorey composition of a forest partly
determines its biological and physical–chemical functioning. Here, we review evidence of …

Is tree species diversity or species identity the more important driver of soil carbon stocks, C/N ratio, and pH?
We explored tree species diversity effects on soil C stock, C/N ratio, and pH as compared
with effects of tree species identity. We sampled forest floors and mineral soil (0–40 cm) in a …
