Organized forestry in Brazil began in the late 1960s, stimulated by a government policy which subsidized afforestation programs from 1967 to 1989 to develop an internationally …
The variability of branch‐level hydraulic properties was assessed across 12 Scots pine populations covering a wide range of environmental conditions, including some of the …
Climatic changes have profound effects on the distribution of biodiversity, but untangling the links between climatic change and ecosystem functioning is challenging, particularly in high …
Trees may survive prolonged droughts by shifting water uptake to reliable water sources, but it is unknown if the dominant mechanism involves activating existing roots or growing new …

Inter‐and intraspecific variation in hydraulic traits was investigated in nine Cordia (Boraginaceae) species growing in three tropical rainforests differing in mean annual …
Tree features may modulate the sensitivity of radial growth to climate, leading to a nonuniform response. Age‐related increases in climatic sensitivity have been observed …
Understanding whether tree growth is limited by carbon gain (source limitation) or by the direct effect of environmental factors such as water deficit or temperature (sink limitation) is …
