With the global climate anomalies and the destruction of ecological balance, the water
shortage has become a serious ecological problem facing all mankind, and drought has …

Drought and waterlogging seriously affect the growth of plants and are considered severe
constraints on agricultural and forestry productivity; their frequency and degree have …

How coniferous forests evolved in the Northern Hemisphere remains largely unknown.
Unlike most groups of organisms that generally follow a latitudinal diversity gradient, most …

Water must be transported long distances in tall plants, resulting in increasing hydraulic
resistance, which may place limitations on the maximum plant height (H max) in a given …

Aim Trade‐offs among tolerances to different abiotic stressors limit polytolerance in woody
plants. However, the general trait syndromes that underlie large‐scale tolerance patterns of …

A rapid growth in world population is putting a pressure on agricultural products due to their
worldwide demand. Contrastively, agricultural activities developed during green revolution …

Under climate change, ecosystems are experiencing novel drought regimes, often in
combination with stressors that reduce resilience and amplify drought's impacts …

Tall trees are key drivers of ecosystem processes in tropical forest, but the controls on the
distribution of the very tallest trees remain poorly understood. The recent discovery of grove …

Conifers inhabit some of the most challenging landscapes where multiple abiotic stressors
(eg, aridity, freezing temperatures) often co-occur. Physiological tolerance to multiple …

Climate change and agriculture are intrinsically connected and sudden changes in climatic
conditions adversely impact global food production and security. The climate change-linked …
