Ehleringer J, Phillips S, Schuster W, Sandquist D
Oecologia . 2017 Mar; 88(3):430-434. PMID: 28313807
Seasonal changes in the hydrogen isotope ratios of xylem waters were measured to determine water sources used for growth in desert plants of southern Utah. While all species used winter-spring...

Schuster W, Sandquist D, Phillips S, Ehleringer J
Oecologia . 2017 Mar; 91(3):332-337. PMID: 28313539
Carbon isotope discrimination (Δ) was compared between populations of dominant perennial plant species, differing in life expectancy, in two deserts with contrasting vegetation types. In both deserts, plants of the...

Levy-Varon J, Schuster W, Griffin K
Oecologia . 2013 Dec; 174(4):1415-24. PMID: 24337785
Forests serve an essential role in climate change mitigation by removing CO2 from the atmosphere. Within a forest, disturbance events can greatly impact C cycling and subsequently influence the exchange...

Cohen J, Xu M, Schuster W
Proc Biol Sci . 2013 Feb; 280(1757):20122955. PMID: 23427171
Taylor's law (TL) asserts that the variance of the density (individuals per area or volume) of a set of comparable populations is a power-law function of the mean density of...

Cohen J, Xu M, Schuster W
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2012 Sep; 109(39):15829-34. PMID: 23019367
Two widely tested empirical patterns in ecology are combined here to predict how the variation of population density relates to the average body size of organisms. Taylor's law (TL) asserts...

Falxa-Raymond N, Patterson A, Schuster W, Griffin K
Tree Physiol . 2012 Aug; 32(9):1092-101. PMID: 22851552
Oak forests dominate much of the eastern USA, but their future is uncertain due to a number of threats and widespread failure of oak regeneration. A sudden loss of oaks...

Searle S, Turnbull M, Boelman N, Schuster W, Yakir D, Griffin K
Tree Physiol . 2012 Apr; 32(4):389-400. PMID: 22491523
Urbanization is accelerating across the globe, elevating the importance of studying urban ecology. Urban environments exhibit several factors affecting plant growth and function, including high temperatures (particularly at night), CO(2)...

Levy-Varon J, Schuster W, Griffin K
Oecologia . 2011 Nov; 169(1):211-20. PMID: 22076310
The goal of this study was to evaluate the contribution of oak trees (Quercus spp.) and their associated mycorrhizal fungi to total community soil respiration in a deciduous forest (Black...

Nagel J, Griffin K, Schuster W, Tissue D, Turnbull M, Brown K, et al.
Tree Physiol . 2002 Aug; 22(12):859-67. PMID: 12184975
Despite its recent expansion in eastern US forests, red maple (Acer rubrum L.) generally exhibits a low leaf photosynthetic rate, leaf mass per unit area (LMA) and leaf nitrogen concentration...

Int J Biometeorol . 2002 Jul; 46(2):66-75. PMID: 12135201
Two process-based models were used to identify the environmental variables limiting productivity in a pristine, mature forest dominated by rimu (Dacrydium cupressinum Sol. ex Lamb.) trees in South Westland, New...
