Non-monotonic response of net dust deposition kinetics to low wind speeds

Abstract. Dry deposition is a major sink for mineral dust, yet its behavior under weak winds remains poorly constrained and is often parameterized monotonically with wind speed. Here we quantify size-resolved dust deposition kinetics in a large closed-circuit recirculating wind t...

Ectomycorrhizal tree relative abundance is associated with higher aboveground biomass but reduced species richness and tree-size variation in temperate–subtropical transition forests

Ectomycorrhizal (EcM) tree species often dominate temperate and warm-temperate forests, yet how variation in their relative abundance is associated with species diversity and aboveground biomass (AGB) remains unclear. We analyzed a total of 6 ha of permanent forest monitoring plo...
