Questions Do functional traits explain individual tree species' responses to environmental
filters and dispersal limitations following stand‐replacing fire? Can post‐fire conditions …

From a forest management stand point, it is crucial to know which ecological processes are
most likely to drive changes in tree species distributions and abundance under warming …

In recent years, warming climate and increased fire activity have raised concern about post-
fire recovery of western US forests. We assessed relationships between climate variability …

Aim Forest regeneration data provide an early signal of the persistence and migration of tree
species, so we investigated whether species shifts due to climate change exhibit a common …

Background In seed-obligate conifer forests of the western US, land managers need a better
understanding of the spatiotemporal variability in post-fire recovery to develop adaptation …

Experimental study of the effects of projected climate change on plant phenology allows us
to isolate effects of warming on life‐history events such as leaf out. We simulated a 2° C …

Background Climate change is eroding forest resilience to disturbance directly through
warming climate and indirectly through increasing disturbance activity. Forests characterized …

Climate change and disturbance are altering forests and the rates and locations of tree
regeneration. In semi-arid forests of the southwestern USA, limitations imposed by hot and …

A major aim of sustainable forest management is the maintenance or recolonisation of
harvested areas by species that were present pre-disturbance. Forest influence (a type of …

A range of environmental factors regulate tree growth; however, climate is generally thought
to most strongly influence year‐to‐year variability in growth. Numerous dendrochronological …
