Influences of Structural and Species Diversity on Forest Resistance to Drought [PDF]
Forest structural richness and species evenness respectively show positive and negative relationships with forest resistance to drought. These relationships between richness and resistance and between evenness and resistance become stronger under more severe droughts.

Contrasting Patterns of Local Adaptation and Adaptive Potential Under Climate Change for Old‐Growth and Planted Stands of Norway Spruce (Picea abies) [PDF]
ABSTRACT Genetic diversity is a key prerequisite for adaptation to changing environments. Maintaining genetic diversity in forest trees is crucial amid climate change, given their long generation times. Forest management practices can affect the genetic diversity of forest ecosystems through selective felling or reforestation strategies following ...

Trade‐Offs Between Carbon and Water Fluxes Along a Land Use Intensity Gradient in Southeast Asian Forests and Plantations [PDF]
Increase land use intensity may enhance net carbon uptake in fast‐growing species on mineral soil but concurrently increases the risk of water scarcity. Net carbon uptake and evapotranspiration in high land use intensity sites are more affected by water availability compared to low land use intensity sites.
