Little is known about variations in tree phenology and their driving forces on the Tibetan Plateau. Herein, we monitored shoot growth and needle unfolding of Smith fir (Abies georgei var. smithii) between 3,800 and 4,360 m a.s.l. in the Sygera Mountains, southeastern Tibetan Plateau. The trees were 0.45–1.48 m high and 12–39 years old. Their phenology was observed every week between May 5 and August...
Flowering dogwood (Cornus florida L.) is an important understory tree species that is thought to enhance ecological calcium (Ca) cycling and soil Ca availability through high foliar Ca concentrations and rapid leaf litter decomposition. Calcium is an essential macronutrient in plants, important for stabilizing cell walls and plasma membranes. It is also an ubiquitous intracellular second messenger,...
In the present study phenological activities such as leaf and shoot growth, leaf pool size and leaf fall were observed for 3 years (March 2007–March 2010) in 19 tree species (13 evergreen and 6 deciduous species) in a wet tropical forest in Assam, India. The study area receives total annual average rainfall of 2,318 mm of which most rain fall (>70 %) occurs during June–September. Both the plant...
