Frequent observations of higher mortality in larger trees than in smaller ones during
droughts have sparked an increasing interest in size‐dependent drought‐induced mortality …

Plant water‐use efficiency (WUE, the carbon gained through photosynthesis per unit of
water lost through transpiration) is a tracer of the plant physiological controls on the …

We conducted a meta-analysis of carbon and oxygen isotopes from tree ring chronologies
representing 34 species across 10 biomes to better understand the environmental drivers …

There is broad consensus that, via changes in stomatal conductance, plants moderate the
exchanges of water and carbon between the biosphere and atmosphere, playing a major …

Our limited understanding of the impacts of drought on tropical forests significantly impedes
our ability in accurately predicting the impacts of climate change on this biome. Here, we …

High‐elevation forests are experiencing high rates of warming, in combination with CO2 rise
and (sometimes) drying trends. In these montane systems, the effects of environmental …

A higher frequency and intensity of droughts will impair forest productivity. Therefore,
improving our understanding of which factors enhance tree growth resilience against …

Human-caused CO 2 emissions over the past century have caused the climate of the Earth
to warm and have directly impacted on the functioning of terrestrial plants. We examine the …

Increases in terrestrial water‐use efficiency (WUE) have been reported in many studies,
pointing to potential changes in physiological forcing of global carbon and hydrological …

Increasing water‐use efficiency (WUE), the ratio of carbon gain to water loss, is a key
mechanism that enhances carbon uptake by terrestrial vegetation under rising atmospheric …
