Woody plant species store nonstructural carbohydrates (NSCs) for many functions. While
known to buffer against fluctuations in photosynthetic supply, such as at night, NSC stores …

Climate change challenges the adaptive capacity of several forest tree species in the face of
increasing drought and rising temperatures. Therefore, understanding the mechanistic …

Increasing variability and uncertainty regarding future climate provide new challenges for
the conservation of endangered tree species. For example, threat status can be impacted by …

Introduction Understanding the adaptive capacity to current climate change of drought-
sensitive tree species is mandatory, given their limited prospect of migration and adaptation …

Organisms modify their geographical distributions in response to changes in environmental
conditions, or modify their affinity to such conditions, to avoid extinction. This study explored …

Soil nitrogen (N) availability affects plant carbon (C) utilization. However, it is unclear how
various tree functional types respond to N addition in terms of C assimilation, allocation, and …

Frequent droughts in a warming climate tend to induce the degeneration of vegetation.
Quantifying the response of vegetation to variations in drought events is therefore crucial for …

Population density influences tree responses to environmental stresses, such as drought
and high temperature. Prolonged drought negatively affects the health of Mongolian pines in …

Currently, Mediterranean forests are experiencing the deleterious effects of global warming,
which mainly include increased temperatures and decreased precipitation in the region …

In this study we combine information from aerial LIDAR and hemispherical images taken in
the field with ForeStereo—a forest inventory device—to assess the vulnerability and to …
