Forests are essential in regulating global carbon and water cycles and are critical in
mitigating climate change. Water-use efficiency, defined by the ratio of plant productivity per …

Carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) is an important technology to reduce fossil CO 2
emissions and remove CO 2 from the atmosphere. Scenarios for CCS deployment …

As temperatures warm and precipitation patterns shift as a result of climate change, interest
in the identification of tree genotypes that will thrive under more arid conditions has grown …

Excessive water and nitrogen inputs in agricultural production can result in resource
wastage and environmental pollution. This makes it imperative to identify effective farmland …

Aim To investigate how ecosystem water‐use efficiency (WUE) varies spatially under
different climate conditions, and how spatial variations in WUE differ from those of …

Decreasing fresh water supplies and increasing agricultural drought threaten sustainable
worldwide crop production. Consequently, there is a global priority to develop crops with …

Central paradigms of ecophysiology are that there are recognizable and even explicit and
predictable patterns among species, genera, and life forms in the economics of water and …

Adaptive strategies to improve tree water-use efficiency (WUE) are required to meet the
global demand for wood in a future drier climate. A large-scale throughfall exclusion …

Forest decline induced by climate change is a global phenomenon that affects many tree
species, mainly in drought-prone areas as the Mediterranean region. In southern Italy …

Aims In water-scarce agro-environments a clear understanding of how plant nutrients like
magnesium (Mg) affect plant traits related to water-use efficiency (WUE) is of great …
