Conducting the tea bag method repeatedly across different seasons, using the same fertilization study site and a short 90-day period, can be a useful tool for examining the interactive effects, as this method allows for a high degree of control over site effects by using an identical study site. In this study, we explored the sensitivity of the tea bag method in detecting the impacts of nutrient addition on tea material decomposition, as well as the interactive effects of nutrient addition and climatic factors on decomposition. At a 38-year continuous nitrogen and phosphorus fertilization experimental Sakhalin fir stand, we demonstrated that the mass loss ratio of rooibos tea and decomposition constant k, both of which are indicators of early-stage decomposition, were elevated by fertilization in summer, but not in winter. This was probably because, in summer when decomposition rates are less constrained by climatic conditions, the impact of nutrient availability on decomposition rates was relatively stronger compared to other seasons. Thus, the tea bag method can serve as a suitable tool for examining the effect of nutrient addition on early-stage litter decomposition and their interaction with climatic effects. Meanwhile, we concluded that the effects of nutrient addition on late-stage litter decomposition are undetectable by the tea bag method, because this method does not take into account lignin degradation.","PeriodicalId":15839,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Forest Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2023-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45614340","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Current-year shoot growth began in April, with high shoot growth continuing until August. Ψtlp varied significantly throughout the year and was particularly high during the shoot growth period. Increasing LMA and decreasing Ψs caused a reduction in Ψtlp from autumn to winter, and Ψmid dropped to approximately the level of Ψtlp during the summer due to high transpiration activity, and increased with decreasing transpiration rates during the winter. Thus, the turgor safety margin was smaller in the summer than in the winter. These results suggest that Japanese cedar is most vulnerable to drought in the summer due to high Ψtlp during the shoot growth period.","PeriodicalId":15839,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Forest Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2023-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47728661","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study conducted field surveys to clarify a buffering system against seasonal large S inputs in a forested catchment in central Japan that has historically suffered from transboundary air pollution. Results showed that atmospheric S fluxes significantly increased in winter due to north-westerly seasonal winds from the Asian continent; fluxes were 1.1 and 0.3 kmolc ha−1 in the cold and warm seasons, respectively, due to the large effects of sea salt and transboundary air pollution. Despite the large seasonality within atmospheric deposition, SO4 2– concentrations in stream water (SW) were found to be relatively stable throughout the year. Similarly, S isotopic ratios (δ34S) in rainwater showed clear seasonal variation, increasing to 12‰ in winter and decreasing to 2‰ in summer, whereas the δ34S value of SW was stable year-round at ~9‰. Flux-weighted mean δ34S values for rainfall (RF), throughfall, stemflow, and SW were similar, i.e. 8.5, 9.5, 9.0, and 9.0‰, respectively. Both the δ34S values and the SO4 2– concentrations in RF and soil solutions appear to converge at values of SW, suggesting that atmospheric deposition is a primary S origin in SW. The sulfur adsorption-desorption in soil appears to mainly buffer the large sulfur input and prevent sudden acidification, whereas a relatively small biological sulfur cycle was suggested by litterfall. Possible disturbances within this buffering system should be carefully monitored under a changing climate.","PeriodicalId":15839,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Forest Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2023-04-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44846176","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Increasing the mixture of broadleaved (BL) trees into conifer plantations increases the abundance of species that prefer natural BL forests but can reduce conifer yields. Therefore, modeling of the relationships of the abundances of various taxa with conifer and BL trees is necessary for effective biodiversity conservation. Longhorn and carabid beetles are useful ecological indicators; however, their responses to the amount (e.g. basal area and coverage) of conifer and BL trees within stands remain unknown. We surveyed the abundances of longhorn and carabid beetles in plantations of Todo fir Abies sachalinensis and Sakhalin spruce Picea glehnii mixed with various amounts of BL trees and in natural BL forests. We analyzed the response of each taxon to the basal area of conifer trees (CBA) within stands. Unexpectedly, for longhorn beetles, no effect of CBA was detected for species using BL trees as larval host plants and the effect was positive for generalist species. For carabid beetles, the total abundance of forest-dependent species decreased almost linearly with increasing CBA. The species-level mean response was decreasing abundance with increasing CBA, which occurred more rapidly in the lower range of CBA. These results suggest large negative impacts of conifer trees, even in small amounts, for many carabid species. To reconcile timber production with carabid beetle conservation, it is essential to maintain remnant natural BL forests and revert unsuccessful conifer plantations containing abundant BL trees into BL forests.","PeriodicalId":15839,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Forest Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2023-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48944084","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We used a typical sampling to study the impact of four thinning intensities (T1: 0%, 2500 stems ha−1; T2: 20%, 2010 stems ha−1; T3: 30%, 1750 stems ha−1; T4: 40%, 1500 stems ha−1) on the tree growth and soil physicochemical properties and their correlation in Cunninghamia lanceolata plantations. The average annual increments in tree height, diameter at breast height (DBH), and volume increased with thinning intensity, and those of T4 differed significantly (P < 0.05) from those of T1. The average annual stand volume increments of T4 were significantly (P < 0.05) lower than that of T1, while the maximum value presented at T3. However, the effect of thinning in promoting the growth of Chinese fir diminished with time. As the thinning intensity increased, the diameter class distribution of the sample stands moved rightwards. Moreover, thinning improved soil physiochemical properties. The effects of thinning on soil properties in 0–20 cm soil layer were greater than those in 20–40 cm soil layer. There was a positive correlation between available nitrogen, available potassium and tree growth. The results of this study showed that thinning had a potential effect on tree growth and soil properties. The heavy thinning intensity (approximately 1500 stems ha−1) was the optimum for maintaining economic and ecological benefits. However, heavy thinning significantly reduced stand volume. From the perspective of improving stand volume and biomass, a moderate thinning intensity (approximately 1750 stems ha−1) could be considered for adoption.","PeriodicalId":15839,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Forest Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2023-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43638785","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Gray Nightjar (Caprimulgus jotaka), a nocturnal bird species, breeds and forages in early successional habitats surrounded by forests; its populations have declined since the 1970s in Japan. Because nightjars are more abundant in warmer areas across Hokkaido, northern Japan, habitat creation through plantation harvesting was expected to promote nightjar abundance or occupancy in this region. To explore the effects of plantation harvesting on nightjar occupancy, we conducted an 8-year playback survey in a plantation landscape in central Hokkaido. We considered the effects of elevation as a surrogate for temperature. The results indicated that increasing young forest cover within 500 m of the centroid of each site enhanced nightjar occupancy, whereas elevation negatively affected occupancy. Therefore, at lower elevations, we predict a larger increase in occupancy probability with increasing young forest cover following plantation harvesting. Our results suggest that young forest creation in landscapes can contribute to Gray Nightjar conservation. To effectively create early successional species habitats through plantation harvesting, it is important to consider climate and elevation in the target area.","PeriodicalId":15839,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Forest Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2023-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46024180","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We established six pairs of exclosure and control quadrats, with three pairs at each topographical position. We assessed changes in vegetation and plant structure (coverage and height), species composition, numbers of flowering/fruiting species, and damage to the plant species caused by deer browsing between 2009–2016. Vegetation coverage and the number of flowering/fruiting plant species increased in the exclosure quadrats during the study period, indicating that browsing prevents herb-layer species from reaching the flowering and fruiting stages in this site. Moreover, dissimilarity in species composition between the exclosure and control quadrats increased on the upper slope. However, the dissimilarity between upper and lower slopes in the control quadrats tended to decrease. Large herbs, which mainly include forbs and perennial species, were characteristically abundant on the lower slopes and decreased in the control quadrats on the lower slope.

This study aimed to reveal the spatio-temporal variations in the fine root phenology in a mixed temperate forest in Japan using scanner method. The spatio-temporal variation in the fine root areas was evaluated using two scales: among four plots in the stand and among four partitioned areas in the scanner image. Here, we hypothesized that root phenology would vary on both scales due to the mixture of species-specific phenologies, which means endogenous factors to have a larger impact than exogenous factors such as temperature and precipitation. The timing of the production peak varied among years, though it concentrated within a specific period of the year in all plots. In all plots, active root mortality dynamics were observed in the summer. These results suggested exogenous factors as stronger regulators of fine root production and mortality than endogenous factors. Root phenology within the scanner images is highly heterogeneous, suggesting the significance of broad observation surfaces, such as those acquired using the scanner method, in comprehending the representative phenology of root dynamics at a stand scale. This study revealed that fine root phenology had a synchronized pattern on the stand scale, even though high spatial variation existed in the scale size of the scanner. Differences in root phenology that were influenced by internal factors of the species were masked on the stand scale.","PeriodicalId":15839,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Forest Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2023-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46925357","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Because tropical secondary forests were known to show a steady rate of above-ground biomass (AGB) recovery, they were expected to play a crucial role in carbon sequestration. However, in a preliminary survey of logged-over forests in Borneo, some patches covered with ferns and vines do not seem to recover steadily despite the fact that several decades have passed since the last logging. The presence and abundance of fern/vine thickets may affect the AGB recovery, but few studies have investigated the effects of the thickets. We established a total of seventeen 20-m radius circular plots in logged-over forests, Sabah, Malaysia, with a varying degree of fern/vine coverage, and tested the hypothesis that the greater fern/vine coverage would retard the AGB recovery. The net AGB accumulation rate from 2014 to 2019 was lower in the forests with a higher fern/vine coverage. Our lower bound of the accumulation rate was much lower than the previously reported rates elsewhere. The number of newly recruited and small-diameter trees was lower, and the mortality of remnant trees was higher with increasing fern/vine coverage. The growth rate of the extant pioneer trees, which are expected to significantly contribute to the initial build-up phase of the secondary succession, was inhibited when ferns and vines covered the canopy. Our study suggests that the secondary succession is arrested and the recoverability of forest stands is lower than formerly predicted when they are covered by thick ferns and vines.","PeriodicalId":15839,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Forest Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2023-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43134749","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
