Evidence exists that tree mortality is accelerating in some regions of the tropics,, with
profound consequences for the future of the tropical carbon sink and the global …

For tropical forests to survive anthropogenic global warming, trees will need to avoid rising
temperatures through range shifts and “species migrations” or tolerate the newly emerging …

The carbon and hydrogen isotope compositions (δ 13 C and δ 2 H) of sedimentary n-
alkanes are excellent recorders of past vegetation and precipitation change. Yet, few studies …

Tropical forests are some of the most biodiverse ecosystems in the world, yet their
functioning is threatened by anthropogenic disturbances and climate change. Global actions …

Climate extremes and biotic interactions at the neighbourhood scale affect tropical forest
dynamics with long‐term consequences for biodiversity, global carbon cycling and climate …

Species distribution modelling is gaining popularity due to significant habitat shifts in many
plant and animal species caused by climate change. This issue is particularly pressing for …

Research results on the effects of environmental factors on tree water use, growth, and water
use efficiency vary latitudinally and geographically and the conclusions remain …

Elevation gradients provide natural laboratories for investigating tropical tree ecophysiology
in the context of climate warming. Previously observed trends with increasing elevation …

Temporal growth variability is an important indicator of ecosystem function under climate
change. However, we still lack a unified understanding of how climate conditions, climate …

Elevated air temperature (T air) and vapour pressure deficit (VPDair) significantly influence
plant functioning, yet their relative impacts are difficult to disentangle. We examined the …
