Low stand density moderates growth declines during hot droughts in semi‐arid forests
Increasing heat and aridity in coming decades is expected to negatively impact tree growth
and threaten forest sustainability in dry areas. Maintaining low stand density has the …

Tree neighbourhood diversity has negligible effects on drought resilience of European beech, silver fir and Norway spruce
Promoting tree species diversity is commonly advocated in the anticipation of predicted
increases in drought frequency and severity. However, mixing effects on drought responses …

Multi‐decadal carbon cycle measurements indicate resistance to external drivers of change at the Howland forest AmeriFlux site
A long‐standing goal of ecology has been to understand the cycling of carbon in forests.
This has taken on new urgency with the need to address a rapidly changing climate. Forests …

Did the 2018 megadrought change the partitioning of growth between tree sizes and species? A Swiss case‐study
By killing or weakening trees, drought could change the partitioning of growth between tree
sizes or species, thereby altering stand structure. Growth partitioning, often quantified using …
