To slow the effects of climate change, conserve biodiversity, and meet the sustainable development goals, replanting trees is vital. Restored forests store carbon within the forest’s soil, shrubs, and ...

From Tasmania to the Top End, Australia's forest trees are dying at higher rates due to climate change, according to new research.

Researchers have found almost identical patterns of tree diversity across the world's tropical forests. The study of over one million trees across 1,568 locations found that just 2.2% of tree species ...

Researchers demonstrate that the simplest way to measure diversity in eastern U.S. forests is also the best way to assess its health and productivity, creating a straightforward roadmap for ...

The reason why so many tree species can coexist in species-rich forests has long been a subject of debate in ecology. This question is key to understanding the mechanisms governing the dynamics and ...
