Influences of forest structure, climate and species composition on tree mortality across the eastern US.

Influences of forest structure, climate and species composition on tree mortality across the eastern US.

Few studies have quantified regional variation in tree mortality, or explored whether species compositional changes or within-species variation are responsible for regional patterns, despite the fact that mortality has direct effects on the dynamics of woody biomass, species composition, stand struc...
