Large projected increases in forest disturbance pose a major threat to future wood fiber
supply and carbon sequestration in the cold-limited, Canadian boreal forest ecosystem …

Predicted increases in temperature and aridity across the boreal forest region have the
potential to alter timber supply and carbon sequestration. Given the widely-observed …

Predicting long‐term trends in forest growth requires accurate characterisation of how the
relationship between forest productivity and climatic stress varies across climatic regimes …

Boreal forests are facing profound changes in their growth environment, including warming‐
induced water deficits, extended growing seasons, accelerated snowmelt, and permafrost …

An increasing number of studies conclude that water limitations and heat stress may hinder
the capacity of black spruce (Picea mariana (Mill.) BSP) trees, a dominant species of …

As global temperatures rise, variation in annual climate is also changing, with unknown
consequences for forest biomes. Growing forests have the ability to capture atmospheric …

Considerable evidence exists that current global temperatures are higher than at any time
during the past millennium. However, the long-term impacts of rising temperatures and …

Established forests currently function as a major carbon sink, sequestering as woody
biomass about 26% of global fossil fuel emissions. Whether forests continue to act as a …

Climatic warming alters the onset, duration and cessation of the vegetative season. While
previous studies have shown a tight link between thermal conditions and leaf phenology …

The boreal forest represents the terrestrial biome most heavily affected by climate change.
However, no consensus exists regarding the impacts of these changes on the growth of tree …
