Native diversity buffers against severity of non-native tree invasions

Analysis combining multiple global tree databases reveals that whether a location is invaded by non-native tree species depends on anthropogenic factors, but the severity of the invasion depends on the native species diversity.

The global distribution and drivers of wood density and their impact on forest carbon stocks

Wood density is an important plant trait. Data from 1.1 million forest inventory plots and 10,703 tree species show a latitudinal gradient in wood density, with temperature and soil moisture explaining variation at the global scale and disturbance also having a role at the local level.

Integrated global assessment of the natural forest carbon potential

Analysis of ground-sourced and satellite-derived models reveals a global forest carbon potential of 226 Gt outside agricultural and urban lands, with a difference of only 12% across these modelling approaches.

Co-limitation towards lower latitudes shapes global forest diversity gradients

Examining drivers of the latitudinal biodiversity gradient in a global database of local tree species richness, the authors show that co-limitation by multiple environmental and anthropogenic factors causes steeper increases in richness with latitude in tropical versus temperate and boreal zones.

Positive feedbacks and alternative stable states in forest leaf types

Alternative stable states in forests have implications for the biosphere. Here, the authors combine forest biodiversity observations and simulations revealing that leaf types across temperate regions of the NH follow a bimodal distribution suggesting signatures of alternative forest states.

The global biogeography of tree leaf form and habit

Integrating inventory data with machine learning models reveals the global composition of tree types—needle-leaved evergreen individuals dominate, followed by broadleaved evergreen and deciduous trees—and climate change risks.

HSF1 phase transition mediates stress adaptation and cell fate decisions

Gaglia et al. show, using single-cell imaging and analysis in human tumours, that phase transition of heat-shock factor 1 (HSF1) to form intranuclear stress bodies mediates cell-fate decisions underlying cell survival or death.

Climatic controls of decomposition drive the global biogeography of forest-tree symbioses

A spatially explicit global map of tree symbioses with nitrogen-fixing bacteria and mycorrhizal fungi reveals that climate variables are the primary drivers of the distribution of different types of symbiosis.
