Uncertainties surrounding tree carbon allocation to growth are a major limitation to
projections of forest carbon sequestration and response to climate change. The prevalence …

Abstract Purpose of Review This paper aims to retrace the most significant management
strategies adopted across European beech forests over the last 25 years, highlighting those …

Process-based models and empirical modelling techniques are frequently used to (i)
explore the sensitivity of tree growth to environmental variables, and (ii) predict the future …

Douglas fir is a largely introduced species in Europe and is often presented as a promising
alternative to more drought-sensitive species. However, the observed and predicted …

In this chapter, we review the current long-term growth trends and shortterm growth reaction
to single or repeated stress events on tree and stand level in Europe. Based on growth trend …

Societal Impact Statement Forests worldwide face significant challenges due to climate
change, impacting their health and productivity. In this study, we examined how European …

Mixed forests are increasingly recognized for their resilience to climate change and

Aim Climatic changes affect the growth dynamics of temperate trees, but these effects might
differ between co‐occurring ring‐and diffuse‐porous species as well as between mesic and …

Climate-smart forestry (CSF) has gained increasing attention in recent years. Yet, a
framework to assess the three pillars of CSF, in terms of mitigation and adaptation to climate …
