We synthesize insights from current understanding of drought impacts at stand‐to‐
biogeographic scales, including management options, and we identify challenges to be …

In humid, broadleaf‐dominated forests where gap dynamics and partial canopy mortality
appears to dominate the disturbance regime at local scales, paleoecological evidence …

Six water emergencies have occurred since 1981 for the New York City (NYC) region
despite the following: 1) its perhumid climate, 2) substantial conservation of water since …

Aim Information about climate stressors on tree growth is needed in order to assess the
impacts of global change on forest ecosystems. Broad‐scale patterns of climatic limitations …

Climate change will affect tree species growth and distribution; however, under the same
climatic conditions species may differ in their response according to site conditions. We …

Understanding the factors controlling the expression of longevity in trees is still an
outstanding challenge for tree biologists and forest ecologists. We gathered tree-ring data …

Forest plantations play an important role in maintaining a supply of high-quality timber from
managed forest. With an expected increase in the prevalence of drought in some forested …

Winter snow plays a crucial role in regulating tree growth during the subsequent growing
season in regions suffering seasonal or even annual drought stress, but the mechanisms of …

The pace of environmental and socioeconomic change over the past 100 years has been
rapid. Changes in fire regimes, climate, and land use have shaped the structure and function …

Faunal indicators of old‐growth forests in heavily‐disturbed regions are virtually non‐
existent. However, land snails, in particular micro‐snails, could reflect the impact of land‐use …
