Traversing the canopy: phenology-driven changes and within-canopy transport shape the phyllosphere microbiome in a temperate floodplain hardwood forest

Dinesh Sanka Loganathachetti, Beate Michalzik, Marina Martin Sandoval, Patrick Zerhusen, Ronny Richter, Rolf A. Engelmann, Tom Künne, Christian Wirth, Kirsten Küsel, Martina Herrmann

This study examines how phenological changes and throughfall transport influence phyllosphere microbiomes in temperate forests, finding phenology has a greater impact than tree species.

Functional traits explain growth resistance to successive hotter droughts across a wide set of common and future tree species in Europe

Lena Kretz, Florian Schnabel, Ronny Richter, Anika Raabgrund, Jens Kattge, Karl Andraczek, Anja Kahl, Tom Künne, Christian Wirth

The paper examines how tree growth responds to consecutive hotter droughts using functional traits and finds that growth resistance is influenced by traits related to drought tolerance and resource acquisition.
