Many perennial plants show mast seeding, characterized by synchronous and highly
variable reproduction across years. We propose a general model of masting, integrating …

Climate warming increases tree mortality which will require sufficient reproduction to ensure
population viability. However, the response of tree reproduction to climate change remains …

Climate change effects on tree reproduction are poorly understood, even though the
resilience of populations relies on sufficient regeneration to balance increasing rates of …

Aim Our understanding of the mechanisms that maintain forest diversity under changing
climate can benefit from knowledge about traits that are closely linked to fitness. We tested …

All species must partition resources among the processes that underly growth, survival, and
reproduction. The resulting demographic trade‐offs constrain the range of viable life‐history …

Diverse drivers such as climate, soil fertility, neighborhood competition, and functional traits
all contribute to variation in tree stem demographic rates. However, these demographic …

Reconstructing past ecological population dynamics and demographic events is crucial for
understanding the dynamics of ecological processes, evaluating the impact of …

Key message In a former paper, we investigated whether the presence of light-demanding
tree species in the forest canopy of the Yangambi Biosphere Reserve (central Congo basin) …

The regeneration of plants endemic to remote mountain areas is thought to be relatively
unimpacted by human disturbances but rather dominated by abiotic factors, such as …

This study assesses how numerous stressors shape the vital rates (survival, growth, and
fecundity) of sugar pine across the vast majority of its range. Sugar pine (Pinus lambertiana …
