This study evaluates the sensitivity of multispectral vegetation indices to leaf water and carotenoid content across biomes and finds that leaf area index explains most of the variability.

This study examines how experimental warming and cooling affect community diversity metrics in Rocky Mountain plant communities, finding decoupling between species and phylogenetic diversity.

The study examines whether rare plant species contribute disproportionately to phylogenetic diversity in a subalpine community and finds they do not.

The paper quantifies metal contamination exposure across Amazon biodiversity, finding 66% of species are exposed to mining-associated metals.

The paper tests the WBE model of metabolic scaling in trees using laser-scanned data, finding support for [3/4] scaling across tree crowns and intraspecific variation.

This study uses terrestrial laser scanning to measure tree surface areas, finding discrepancies between direct measurements and theoretical predictions, suggesting the need to revise allometric models.

The paper introduces GNRS, a tool that standardizes and indexes political division names to improve georeferencing accuracy in species distribution modeling.
