To maximize utilization of our forest resources, detailed knowledge of wood property
variation and the impacts this has on end-product performance is required at multiple scales …

The constant rise in the global temperature and unpredictable shifts in precipitation patterns
are two of the main effects of climate change. Therefore, there is an increasing amount of …

Climate change is projected to increase the frequency and severity of droughts, possibly
causing sudden and elevated tree mortality. Better understanding and predictions of boreal …

Climate change is increasing the severity and frequency of droughts around the globe,
leading to tree mortality that reduces production and provision of other ecosystem services …

Boreal forests are warming faster than the rest of the planet. Do the benefits of higher
temperatures and longer growing seasons for forest productivity exceed the negative effects …

European forests are an important source for timber production, human welfare, income,
protection and biodiversity. During the last two decades, Europe has experienced a number …

Drought-induced mortality is a major direct effect of climate change on tree health, but
drought can also affect trees indirectly by altering their susceptibility to pathogens. Here, we …

Abstract Key Message Hybrid saplings were more reactive to soil water deficit than
Japanese and European larch. European larch had hydraulically safer wood and …

Severe drought causes decline in growth and stability of Mediterranean forests because
autochthonous species and provenances may reach their drought tolerance limits. Stone …

More frequently occurring, drought waves call for a deeper understanding of tree hydraulics
and fast and easily applicable methods to measure drought stress. The aim of this study was …
