The impacts of increasing drought on forest dynamics, structure, and biodiversity in the United States
We synthesize insights from current understanding of drought impacts at stand‐to‐
biogeographic scales, including management options, and we identify challenges to be …

Sensitivity of global terrestrial ecosystems to climate variability
The identification of properties that contribute to the persistence and resilience of
ecosystems despite climate change constitutes a research priority of global relevance. Here …

Contrasting resistance and resilience to extreme drought and late spring frost in five major European tree species
Extreme climate events (ECEs) such as severe droughts, heat waves, and late spring frosts
are rare but exert a paramount role in shaping tree species distributions. The frequency of …

Differentiating drought legacy effects on vegetation growth over the temperate Northern Hemisphere
In view of future changes in climate, it is important to better understand how different plant
functional groups (PFG s) respond to warmer and drier conditions, particularly in temperate …

Vulnerability of the global terrestrial ecosystems to climate change
Climate change has far‐reaching impacts on ecosystems. Recent attempts to quantify such
impacts focus on measuring exposure to climate change but largely ignore ecosystem …
