Drought-associated woody-plant mortality has been increasing in most regions with multi-
decadal records and is projected to increase in the future, impacting terrestrial climate …

Droughts can have strong environmental and socio-economic impacts in the Mediterranean
region, in particular for countries relying on rain-fed agricultural production, but also in areas …

Climate change is expected to increase the frequency and severity of droughts. These
events, which can cause significant perturbations of terrestrial ecosystems and potentially …

By the year 2050, the world's population is predicted to have grown to around 9–10 billion
people. The food demand in many countries continues to increase with population growth …

Severe droughts have the potential to reduce forest productivity and trigger tree mortality.
Most trees face several drought events during their life and therefore resilience to dry …

Tree mortality rates appear to be increasing in moist tropical forests (MTF s) with significant
carbon cycle consequences. Here, we review the state of knowledge regarding MTF tree …

Multi‐year lags in tree drought recovery, termed 'drought legacy effects', are important for
understanding the impacts of drought on forest ecosystems, including carbon (C) cycle …

Abstract The 2009/2010 drought in Southwest China was a “once in a century drought”
event. This drought event had strong adverse impacts, such as water scarcity, crop failure …

A mechanistic understanding of plant photosynthetic response is needed to reliably predict
changes in terrestrial carbon (C) gain under conditions of chronically elevated atmospheric …

The frequency and intensity of droughts have increased over the decades, leading to
increased forest decline. The response of forest to drought can be evaluated by both its …
