Research paper Key message The 2024 ENSO event advanced the timing of spring phenological phases of native shrubs significantly more than non-native shrubs and native trees in a temperate deciduous woodland fragment in Wisconsin, USA. This suggests

Review paper Key message This systematic review shows that thinning effects on soil fauna abundance and species richness vary with thinning strategy and methodological approach. Positive responses are due to improved resources and favorable microclimate conditions, whereas

Key message  Southern temperate rainforests harbor exceptional endemic biodiversity and large carbon stocks but remain underrepresented in global monitoring networks. Here, we present a dataset and standardized census protocol from a 1-ha permanent plot in an old-growth

Key message ATR-FTIR spectroscopy combined with statistical modelling provides accurate predictions of forest floor properties: total organic carbon, total nitrogen, total phosphorus and ash. Performance decreases in carbonate-rich samples, particularly for organic carbon and the carbon to

Key message  Although forest disturbances occur unpredictably, existing monitoring infrastructures can enable rapid, low-cost assessments. By combining national forest inventory data, canopy height models, and freely available satellite imagery, disturbance extent and forest attributes can be estimated
