We evaluated the response of two Mediterranean trees of contrasting ecology, Quercus ilex L. and Pinus halepensis Mill., to cultivation with distinct inorganic N forms. Seedlings were fertilized with different NH4 (+)/NO3 (-) proportion at either 1 or 10 mM N. In both species, N forms had small effects at low N concentration, but at high N concentration they markedly affected the plant performance. A greater proportion of NH4 (+) in the fertilizer at high N caused toxicity as it reduced growth and caused seedling death, with the effect being greater in Q. ilex than in P. halepensis. An increase in the proportion of NO3 (-) at high N strongly enhanced growth relative to low N plants in P. halepensis but had minor effects in Q. ilex. Relatively more NH4 (+) in the fertilizer enhanced plant P concentration but reduced K concentration in both species, while the opposite effect occurred with NO3 (-), and these effects were enhanced under high N concentration. We conclude that species responses to inorganic N forms were related to their ecology. P. halepensis, a pioneer tree, had improved performance with NO3 (-) at high N concentration and showed strong plasticity to changes in N supply. Q. ilex, a late successional tree, had low responsiveness to N form or concentration.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Serra-Diaz, Josep M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Keenan, Trevor F</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ninyerola, Miquel</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">SABATE, Santiago</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gracia, Carlos</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lloret, Francisco</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Geographical patterns of congruence and incongruence between correlative species distribution models and a process-based ecophysiological growth model</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">JOURNAL OF BIOGEOGRAPHY</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">BIOMOD</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">climatic suitability</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">correlative models</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ecophysiology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Forest growth</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">GOTILWA+</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">process-based models</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">species distribution models</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2013</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">WILEY-BLACKWELL</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">111 RIVER ST, HOBOKEN 07030-5774, NJ USA</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">40</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1928-1938</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">AimOur aim was to map the climate dependence of tree species distributions (probability of occurrence) and forest growth (net primary productivity) by comparing the congruence and incongruence between correlative and process-based modelling approaches. LocationIberian Peninsula, south-western Europe. MethodsWe used forest inventory data for three widespread tree species (Quercus ilex, Pinus halepensis and Pinus sylvestris) to model climatic suitability with an ensemble of seven correlative species distribution models (using biomod). We then simulated forest net primary productivity (NPP) as a surrogate of forest growth for forests of each species using an ecophysiological process-based model (gotilwa+) along a gradient of climatic suitability. The spatial distribution of the growth estimates was then compared with that of the suitability estimates, and robust regression was used to classify regions in terms of model congruence. ResultsQuercus ilex and P.sylvestris both showed a positive relationship between forest NPP and climatic suitability. The main discrepancies were found in the north of the peninsula, where there was high potential forest growth but low climate suitability. Low forest-growth estimates in areas of high suitability only appeared for P.sylvestris in southern montane regions. Pinus halepensis always showed a negative relationship between estimated growth and climatic suitability. The analysis of other ecophysiological parameters (mean leaf life and leaf area index) suggests that this tree species has different physiological strategies that allow differential growth rates in areas of low suitability. Main conclusionsWe found that the relationship between estimated growth and distribution varies strongly in different areas and species. Mapping the incongruences between the predicted climatic suitability and growth allowed us to identify regions where other factors (e.g. biotic interactions) may be more significant than the physiological limits on growth. We show that new insights into species distributions can be gained from mapping the differences between correlative and process-based models.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cherubini, Paolo</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gartner, Barbara L.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tognetti, Roberto</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bräker, Otto U.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Schoch, Werner</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">INNES, JOHN L.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Identification, measurement and interpretation of tree rings in woody species from mediterranean climates.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biological reviews of the Cambridge Philosophical Society</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Arbutus unedo</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dendrochronology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dendroecology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ecophysiology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fraxinus ornus</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean climate</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">mediterranean tree rings</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean vegetation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Phenology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus cerris</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus pubescens</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">wood anatomy</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2003</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2003///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12620063</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">78</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">119 - 148</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">We review the literature dealing with mediterranean climate, vegetation, phenology and ecophysiology relevant to the understanding of tree-ring formation in mediterranean regions.

Over the last few decades a growing literature on ecophysiology, population biology and ecosystem ecology has contributed to the empirical, expertise developed by practical forestry during the last century. As a whole these disciplines have documented some of the most important processes that take place in forest ecosystems at different levels of biological organization, from leaf physiology to ecosystem function. Nevertheless, there is a rather limited understanding of how species differences scale from physiology to whole plant performance and how these whole plant processes interact with competition to determine stand dynamics and composition.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></notes><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></research-notes><label><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Modelacao - crescimento</style></label></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Seufert, G</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bartzis, J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bomboi, T</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ciccioli, P</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cieslik, S</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dlugi, R</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foster, P</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hewitt, C N</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kesselmeier, J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kotzias, D</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lenz, R</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Manes, F</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pastor, R.Perez</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Steinbrecher, R</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Torres, L</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Valentini, R</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Versino, B</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">An overview of the Castelporziano experiments</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Atmospheric Environment</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">air chemistry</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biogenic emission</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ecophysiology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean area</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">micrometeorology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vegetation</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1997</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">31, Supple</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5-17</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">This paper reviews the major outcomes of the measuring campaigns performed at the Castelporziano nature preserve near Rome, Italy, by 14 European laboratories as part of the BEMA (Biogenic Emissions in the Mediterranean Area)-project. Six campaigns of 1–4 weeks duration were carried out in different seasons of the years 1993–1994 at semi-continuously running test plots in the nature reserve, representing common Mediterranean vegetation types. The aim was to characterise, at the different test plots, the atmospheric chemical and meteorological situations, the plant biomass and physiology, the type, amount and controls of emissions from different plants by means of branch enclosures, and the BVOC emission fluxes from different ecosystems, by scaling up enclosure data from individual sources, and by measuring fluxes directly by use of micrometeorological methods. An important focus during the initial phase of the five year BEMA-project was the harmonisation and improvement of the analytical, physiological and micrometeorological methods used, and the development and testing of new methods for measuring BVOC fluxes.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Timbal, J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">AUSSENAC, G</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">An overview of ecology and silviculture of indigenous oaks in France</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ann.

Among them, five are of major economic and ecological importance, either because of the quality and value of their wood or because of their geographic extension, or both. Two of these species are widespread in the hills and plains of the Atlantic and of the mid-European domains: Q petraea (sessile oak), and Q robur (pedunculate oak). Four are present in the Mediterranean region: Q pubescens (pubescent oak), Q ilex (holm oak), Q suber (cork oak) and Q coccifera (kermes oak). Pubescent oak is also present in the Atlantic and mid-European regions provided the local soil and climate conditions are favorable. The last species is of very limited extent and will not be considered further in this review. First, we will analyze the distributions of these species in France, as they result from the vegetation dynamics in Europe and the long-lasting action of man. Second, their synecology will be described, based on the empirical knowledge accumulated by botanists and phytoecologists. We will then describe the vegetation series to which they are related. We will next consider the results of ecophysiologal studies of the species, carried out in many laboratories in France and in other European countries. Finally, we will review the sylvicultural practices applied to oak forests, their productivity under different local conditions and the diverse products they yield.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>3</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gracia, C A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sala, A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sabate, S</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ASPECTOS ECOFISIOLOGICOS RELACIONADOS CON LA PRODUCCION DE LOS ENCINARES MEDITERRANEOS</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Congreso Forestal Español, Lourizán - Pontevedra. 1993</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ecophysiology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">L.A.I.</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">productivity</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1993</style></year></dates><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pontevedra</style></pub-location><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">209-218</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The productivity of Quercus ilex forests is low in relation to other tree species. Waterand nutrients are often the most important limiting factors. Nevertheless the ecophysiological traits of this specie could help to explain the observed patterns of productivity. Leaf area index of european evergreen-oak forests is rather constant with values about 5. The energetic cost of formation and maintenance of the leaves of Quercus ilex accounts for more than 50 per cent of total carbon fixed by the trees. The resproutig ability of evergreen oaks could explain the high density and low mean diameter of these populations. The high proportion of living tissues in this type of structuni increases the respiration costs of the stems and branches. As a consequence, an important fraction of carhon fixed by leaves is used to maintain the structure of the community which contribute to explain the low observed net primary production of Quercus ilex forests</style></abstract></record></records></xml>
