The cold range limit of trees
C Körner - Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2021 - cell.com
At high elevation or latitude, trees reach low-temperature range limits. In attempting an
explanation, the range limits of individual tree species (set by freezing tolerance) and the …

[HTML][HTML] Seasonal precipitation and continentality drive bimodal growth in Mediterranean forests
Tree phenology is sensitive to climate warming and changes in seasonal precipitation. Long
xylogenesis records are scarce, thus limiting our ability to analyse how radial growth …

[HTML][HTML] Decoupled leaf-wood phenology in two pine species from contrasting climates: Longer growing seasons do not mean more radial growth
Climate warming is expected to lengthen the growing season of tree species and enhance
radial growth rates. Alternatively, a longer growing season could not lead to improved radial …

Intra-annual growth dynamics of Mediterranean pines and junipers determines their climatic adaptability
Mediterranean trees and shrubs adjust physiological processes to ensure their functioning
under shifting dry conditions. However, little is known about spatial and between-species …

Douglas fir growth is constrained by drought: delineating the climatic limits of timber species under seasonally dry conditions
There is debate on which tree species can sustain forest ecosystem services in a drier and
warmer future. In Europe, the use of non-native timber species, such as Douglas fir …

Growing faster, longer or both? Modelling plastic response of Juniperus communis growth phenology to climate change
Aim Plant growth and phenology respond plastically to changing climatic conditions in both
space and time. Species‐specific levels of growth plasticity determine biogeographical …

An earlier start of growing season can affect tree radial growth through regulating cumulative growth rate
Climate change is profoundly affecting phenology, especially in the Northern Hemisphere.
Nevertheless, how tree radial growth responds to phenological shifts remains to be …
