Tropospheric ozone (O3) levels are predicted to stay high, being a factor within “global
change” with potential effects on the carbon sink strength of forest trees. Hence, new …

Temperature increase and altered precipitation are facets of “Global Change”, along with
enhanced tropospheric ozone (O 3) and CO 2 levels. Both O 3 and drought may curtail the …

We investigated the effect of light availability and soil moisture on growth and biomass
partitioning of Norway spruce and European beech seedlings in a three (light availability …

Leaf or needle ozone uptake was estimated for young trees at seven experimental sites
across Europe using a stomatal conductance simulation model. Dose–response …

Four-year-old seedlings of Picea abies [L.] Karst (Norway spruce) were grown in semi-
controlled conditions with three watering regimes. The seedlings in the control group (c) …

The extraordinary drought during the summer of 2003 in Central Europe allowed to examine
responses of adult beech trees (Fagus sylvatica) to co-occurring stress by soil moisture …

Beech seedlings of different drought sensitivity originating from 11 German provenances
were grown in pots and cultivated in a greenhouse. The present paper aims to give insights …

Critical Zone Science (CZS) represents a powerful confluence of research agendas, tools,
and techniques for examining the complex interactions between biotic and abiotic factors …

Elevated concentrations of ground‐level ozone (O3) and atmospheric nitrogen (N)
deposition occur concurrently. The negative effects of elevated O3 on plants have been …

The combined effects of water stress (WS) and low irradiance (LI) on growth, photosynthesis,
osmotic adjustment, and lipid peroxidation were studied in dragon spruce (Picea asperata …
