Intraspecific variation plays a critical role in extant and future forest responses to climate
change. Forest tree species with wide climatic niches rely on the intraspecific variation …

Key message Adaptation of forest management to climate change requires an
understanding of the effects of climate on forests, industries and communities; prediction of …

Recognition of the importance of intraspecific variation in ecological processes has been
growing, but empirical studies and models of global change have only begun to address this …

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 …

The current distribution of forest genetic resources on Earth is the result of a combination of
natural processes and human actions. Over time, tree populations have become adapted to …

In the framework of sustainable forest management, measuring site quality and predicting
site productivity remain a major forestry topic. Over the past years, it has been fostered by a …

How temperate forests will respond to climate change is uncertain; projections range from
severe decline to increased growth. We conducted field tests of sessile oak (Quercus …

As greenhouse gas emissions rise unabated and temperatures continue to rise, forest
managers have begun to consider assisted migration (AM) of trees as a strategy to adapt …

The conifers are a diverse and ancient group of seed plants of monophyletic origin that
arose more than 300 million years ago (Rothwell and Scheckler 1988). They are uniformly …

Impacts of climate change on the climatic niche of the sub-specific varieties of Pinus
