The role of future forests in global biogeochemical cycles will depend on how different tree
species respond to climate. Interpreting the response of forest growth to climate change …

Growth responses to twentieth century climate variability of the three main European tree
species Fagus sylvatica, Quercus petraea, and Pinus sylvestris within two temperate low …

Key message Recent growth changes (1980–2007) in Western European forests strongly
vary across tree species, and range from+ 42% in mountain contexts to− 17% in …

Climatic constraints on tree growth mediate an important link between terrestrial and
atmospheric carbon pools. Tree rings provide valuable information on climate‐driven growth …

The aim of our study was to determine variation in the response of radial growth in Fagus
sylvatica L (European Beech) to climate across the species full geographical distribution and …

Norway spruce has experienced unprecedented forest declines in recent decades, leading
to extensive salvage logging. Currently, because of the conversion of conifer forests into …

Numerous analyses of the possible impacts of future climatic changes on tree species
composition have been published for both lowland and high-elevation forests. Most of these …

Climate change is expected to result in more extreme weather conditions over large parts of
Europe, such as the prolonged drought of 2003. As water supply is critical for tree growth on …

The effects of climate change on high‐latitude forest ecosystems are complex, making
forecasts of future scenarios uncertain. The predicted lengthening of the growing season …

Climate extremes are predicted to become more frequent and intense in future. Thus,
understanding how trees respond to adverse climatic conditions is crucial for evaluating …
