Dual Polarimetric Radar Vegetation Index for monitoring forest moisture stress using time series of Sentinel‐1 SAR data

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates the potential of the Sentinel‐1 Dual Polarimetric Radar Vegetation Index, combined with climate variables and the Standardized Precipitation–Evapotranspiration Index, to effectively detect and monitor drought‐induced stress in temperate broadleaf deciduous forests.

Drought legacy in mature spruce alleviates physiological stress during recurrent drought

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
The slow recovery of leaf area in mature spruce following a long‐term drought alleviated physiological stress during recurrent drought. Abstract Forest ecosystems are facing severe and prolonged droughts with delayed recovery, known as “drought legacy”.

Root water uptake depth in temperate forest trees: species‐specific patterns shaped by neighbourhood and environment

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Root water uptake strategies vary among temperate tree species (European beech, Douglas fir, and Norway spruce), with beech–conifer mixtures altering water uptake depths, while site conditions and temporal dynamics further shape the contribution of different soil depths to water supply.

Are beech (Fagus sylvatica) roots territorial?

Forest Ecology and Management, 2010
Abstract Root competition between conspecific neighbours has been notoriously difficult to determine in intact ecosystems. Here we applied microsatellite markers to genotype beech trees (Fagus sylvatica, L.) and roots in subplots in an undisturbed, old-growth monospecific forest (Hainich, Germany).

Recurrent hot droughts cause persistent legacy effects in a temperate Scots Pine forest

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
A series of hot drought events caused persistent legacy effects in a Scots Pine forest, with severe negative impacts on ecosystem carbon fluxes. Abstract Recent hot‐dry events have caused significant impacts and legacy effects in temperate ecosystems. Here, we investigate legacy effects of the 2018 hot drought on a Pinus sylvestris L.

Assessing the adaptive potential of European beech populations to temperature and precipitation along a steep environmental gradient in the south‐eastern Carpathians

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This study focuses on the identification of candidate SNPs involved in local adaptation to altitude by environmental association analysis conducted on different natural European beech (Fagus sylvatica) populations. Abstract It is necessary to assess the adaptive potential of European beech populations to climate change.

Growth, spring phenology and stem quality of four broadleaved species assessed in provenance trials in the Netherlands - Implications for seed sourcing

iForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry
Local seed sourcing from autochthonous tree populations is widely practiced for biodiversity conservation, as they are presumed to be adapted to local environmental conditions.
