The specific vulnerability of plant biodiversity and vegetation on Mediterranean islands in the face of global change
F Médail - Regional Environmental Change, 2017 - Springer
Abstract The numerous Mediterranean islands (> 10,000) are very important from a
biodiversity point of view, both in term of plant species (numerous endemics, presence of …

[HTML][HTML] Crown dieback and mortality of urban trees linked to heatwaves during extreme drought
Cities have been described as 'heat islands' and 'dry islands' due to hotter, drier air in urban
areas, relative to the surrounding landscape. As climate change intensifies, the health of …

The thermal tolerance of photosynthetic tissues: a global systematic review and agenda for future research
Understanding plant thermal tolerance is fundamental to predicting impacts of extreme
temperature events that are increasing in frequency and intensity across the globe …

Approaching a thermal tipping point in the Eurasian boreal forest at its southern margin
Climate change is increasing the intensity and frequency of extreme heat events. Ecological
responses to extreme heat will depend on vegetation physiology and thermal tolerance …

Photosynthetic heat tolerances and extreme leaf temperatures
Photosynthetic heat tolerances (PHTs) have several potential applications including
predicting which species will be most vulnerable to climate change. Given that plants exhibit …

Leaf heat tolerance of 147 tropical forest species varies with elevation and leaf functional traits, but not with phylogeny
Exceeding thermal thresholds causes irreversible damage and ultimately loss of leaves. The
lowland tropics are among the warmest forested biomes, but little is known about heat …

The thermal tolerances, distributions, and performances of tropical montane tree species
Due to global warming, many species will face greater risks of thermal stress, which can
lead to changes in performance, abundance, and/or geographic distributions. In plants, high …

Examining the evidence for decoupling between photosynthesis and transpiration during heat extremes
Recent experimental evidence suggests that during heat extremes, wooded ecosystems
may decouple photosynthesis and transpiration, reducing photosynthesis to near zero but …
