Forecasting Forest Vulnerability to Drought in Pyrenean Silver Fir Forests Showing Dieback
Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2020 Forest dieback is manifested as widespread loss of tree vigor, growth decline and high mortality rates. Forest dieback is becoming increasingly frequent and extended, particularly in drought-prone regions.

Emerging trend of increasing spring frost damage for beech at higher elevations in the Jura Mountains: evidence from tree-ring data. [PDF]
New PhytolSummary Late spring frost (LSF) severely impacts tree growth and forest productivity, with global warming potentially altering LSF risk due to asymmetric changes in vegetation onset and frost timing. However, reconstructing past frost regimes with climatic and phenological data remains challenging. Using phenological models, high‐resolution climate and

Research Strategies in Dendroecology and Dendroclimatology in Mountain Environments
Climatic Change, 1997 Tree-ring series from living trees near the timberline or timbers buried in the surroundings are exceptionally valuable both for climate reconstruction and investigations of the consequences of climate change to ecosystems. This paper is a critical assessment of the past and potential contributions of dendroecology and dendroclimatology in mountain ...

Dendroecological Potential of Appalachian Riverscour Woodland Trees
Proceedings of the West Virginia Academy of Science, 2023 Appalachian riverscour woodlands are intermittently flooded areas along high-energy rivers characterized by exposed bedrock and poorly developed sandy soils, high plant diversity, and scattered and stunted trees. These sites can be negatively impacted by dam construction and alterations to river hydrology, trampling associated with riverside ...

A dendroecological study in a declining oak coppice stand [PDF]
Annales des Sciences Forestières, 1996 L'etude a concerne un taillis mixte (Quercus cerris L predominant), âge de 30 ans, situe pres de Tolfa, Rome, Italie. La zone est marquee par un surpâturage de bovins et l'absence de toute intervention sylvicole. Pour evaluer l'importance des differents facteurs relies au deperissement, la situation phytopathologique du peuplement a ete comparee avec ...

Drought resistance is influenced by soil water uptake depth in dryland shrubs
Plant Biology, EarlyView.Higher drought resistance was associated with shifts from shallow to deep soil water uptake under drier conditions, with both covarying with functional traits in drylands. Abstract Climate change exacerbates aridity in dry shrublands leading to different responses of coexisting shrubs to drought, including different resistance (capacity to sustain ...

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 4, October–December 2026.Despite growing efforts to bring Indigenous and Western knowledge together in caribou research, inconsistent reporting of collaboration, ethics, knowledge sharing and Indigenous governance over data continue to limit transparency, accountability and true co‐production of knowledge.

Multifactorial diagnosis of drought‐induced decline in Mediterranean conifer forests
Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 10, October 2026.A multi‐proxy approach integrating radial growth, leaf morphology, stable isotopes, elemental composition and soil properties revealed interacting mechanisms underlying drought‐induced dieback in Mediterranean pine populations. Declining trees showed stronger drought impacts on growth, altered stomatal regulation, nutrient imbalances and accelerated ...
