Recent observations of elevated tree mortality following climate extremes, like heat and
drought, raise concerns about climate change risks to global forest health. We currently lack …

Ecosystems are dynamic systems with complex responses to environmental variation. In
response to pervasive stressors of changing climate and disturbance regimes, many …

Changing disturbance regimes and climate can overcome forest ecosystem resilience.
Following high-severity fire, forest recovery may be compromised by lack of tree seed …

Stressed plants show altered phenotypes, including changes in color, smell, and shape. Yet,
airborne sounds emitted by stressed plants have not been investigated before. Here we …

Drought is a complex and multivariate phenomenon influenced by diverse physical and
biological processes. Such complexity precludes simplistic explanations of cause and effect …

Patterns, mechanisms, projections, and consequences of tree mortality and associated
broad‐scale forest die‐off due to drought accompanied by warmer temperatures—“hotter …

With climate change, heat waves are becoming increasingly frequent, intense and broader
in spatial extent. However, while the lethal effects of heat waves on humans are well …

Drought events are increasing globally, and reports of consequent forest mortality are
widespread. However, due to a lack of a quantitative global synthesis, it is still not clear …

Multiple lines of evidence suggest climate change will result in increased precipitation
variability and consequently more frequent extreme events. These hydroclimatic changes …

Climate change and human activities have already caused degradation in a large fraction of
vegetation on the Qinghai‐Tibetan Plateau (QTP). Many studies report that climate variability …
