The paper introduces MillionTrees, a global benchmark dataset for airborne tree detection, showing that current models struggle to generalize across diverse data and that training on MillionTrees improves performance.

The paper examines how crown-based growth strategies influence tree functional group distribution and co-occurrence across environmental gradients.

The paper investigates whether selection maintains genetic variation for resource allocation trade-offs in an oak hybrid zone despite gene flow, finding that multilocus selection counteracts gene flow through genetic coupling.

This study quantifies thermophilization and climatic debt in Japanese forests, finding increasing climatic debt correlates with declines in primary productivity.

LeafContourEFD provides a reproducible workflow for elliptic Fourier analysis with orientation normalization, improving shape analysis by removing orientation-related variance.

Across 109,626 wood density records from 16,829 plant species (GWDD v.2), intraspecific variation explains 15% of global variance, tracks interspecific environmental gradients at 20-30% magnitude, and limits single-plant predictability.

The paper introduces the Global Canopy Atlas, a harmonized dataset of 3D canopy structure from ALS data, and demonstrates its applications in validating satellite maps, analyzing canopy gap patterns, and quantifying forest turnover.

The paper creates a high-resolution global map of wood density using species and vegetation data, showing improved accuracy and a wider density range than previous estimates.
