Understanding how climate change influences succession is fundamental for predicting
future forest composition. Warming is expected to accelerate species succession at their …

The constant rise in the global temperature and unpredictable shifts in precipitation patterns
are two of the main effects of climate change. Therefore, there is an increasing amount of …

Tree mortality is a key driver of forest dynamics and its occurrence is projected to increase in
the future due to climate change. Despite recent advances in our understanding of the …

Tree-ring analysis provides an effective way to detect complex responses of trees to climate
warming and has been extensively used in ecological studies; however, there is often a lack …

The Himalayas are experiencing dramatic warming and drought events, which occur at a
faster rate than the global average. How will the high-elevation ecosystems cope with such …

Forest growth in most parts of the boreal zone is originally limited by low temperatures and
low nitrogen availability. Due to the rapid climate warming at high latitudes, an increasing …

The boreal forests of Central Asia play a vital role in biodiversity protection and regional
economic development. It is important to study potential changes in the growth dynamics of …

Key message For three widespread European Acer species with different climate envelopes,
hydraulic traits, but not wood anatomical or leaf morphological traits, were good indicators …

The boreal forest biome is prominent for its high organic carbon pools, the stability of which
is important for climate change mitigation. Natural and anthropogenic disturbance is …

Key message Patterns of non-structural carbohydrate allocation in dry and wet differ
between birch and larch in southern boreal forest. Abstract An increasing area of boreal …
