Drought-induced forest dieback can lead to a tipping point in community dominance, but the
coupled response at the tree and stand-level response has not been properly addressed …

Analyzing how climate change has affected forest growth is crucial for predicting future
dynamics and adapting forest management to future climate change. In this paper, we …

Context Mediterranean managed dry-edge pine forests maintain biodiversity and supply key
ecosystem services but are threatened by climate change and are highly vulnerable to …

Key message This paper proposes a methodology that could be considered as a base for a
harmonized protocol for stem-quality reporting in Europe while conducting National Forest …

Site form (SF), expressed as the dominant height of a stand at a reference dominant
diameter, is used less often than site index (SI) to estimate forest site quality. However, it has …

Three Mediterranean oak species were considered in this study: one evergreen oak
(Quercus suber, the most tolerant to drought) and two winter-deciduous oaks (Q. faginea …

Biomass tends to accumulate both in overstorey and understorey layers of forests growing in
productive areas. The rapid growth of forest plantations established in productive areas can …

The increasing occurrence of dry and hot summers generates chronic water deficits that
negatively affect tree radial growth. This phenomenon has been widely studied in natural …

We conducted a study on the dominant height growth of clonal teak (Tectona grandis Linn
F.) plantations in the Brazilian Amazon to assess their potential and its agreement with …

One of the main challenges under global warming is understanding and predicting the
effects of increased aridity on the carbon sink role of forests, particularly in Mediterranean …
