Processes regulating stomatal conductance, gs, and transpiration, E, from forest canopies
are reviewed. The first section deals with the response of gs to environmental variables …

Predicted increases in forest drought mortality highlight the need for predictors of incipient

Climate change is expected to increase the frequency and intensity of droughts and
heatwaves in Europe, leading to effects on forest growth and major forest dieback events …

Drought-induced tree mortality has increased over the last decades in forests around the
globe. Our objective was to investigate under controlled conditions the hydraulic …

Holm oak (Quercus ilex L.) and Aleppo pine (Pinus halepensis Mill) are representative of
two different functional types of trees extensively found in the Mediterranean: evergreen …

The relevance of interspecific variation in the use of plant water sources has been
recognized in drought‐prone environments. By contrast, the characterization of intraspecific …

Interpreting the isotopic tree-ring responses of pines to drought provides insight into the
causes of tree mortality. For this reason, we examine such responses for low elevation Pinus …
