A recent increase in the intensity and frequency of climate extremes under global warming is
likely to continue to cause unprecedented rates of forest dieback in different habitats around …

Large-scale forest disturbances (LSFD) are an essential component of forest ecosystem
dynamics. The effects of rapid loss of forest cover and other changes in forest ecosystems …

Global climate change is expected to further raise the frequency and severity of extreme
events, such as droughts. The effects of extreme droughts on trees are difficult to disentangle …

Ecosystem services (ES) from mountain forests are highly relevant for human societies. ES
with a direct economic support function (eg timber production), regulatory services (eg …

Growth models can be used to assess forest vulnerability to climate warming. If global
warming amplifies water deficit in drought‐prone areas, tree populations located at the driest …

Climate change is expected to exacerbate the frequency of drought-induced tree mortality
world-wide. To better predict the associated change of species composition and forest …

Aim We investigate the effects of the environmental and geographical processes driving
growth resilience and recovery in response to drought in Mediterranean Pinus pinaster …

Climate warming is expected to lengthen the growing season of tree species and enhance
radial growth rates. Alternatively, a longer growing season could not lead to improved radial …

Understanding the relative contributions of competition and climate on individual tree growth
is critical to project realistic forest dynamics under projected climate scenarios. Furthermore …

Ongoing changes in global climate are altering ecological conditions for many species. The
consequences of such changes are typically most evident at the edge of a species' …
