The paper quantifies stomatal responses to vapour pressure deficit in 38 tree species and finds that these responses vary widely and are not strongly linked to common leaf traits.

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.

The paper measures leaf and fine-root traits across 90 tree species to assess coordination between above- and below-ground traits and resource strategies.

This study compares absorptive and transport fine root traits in 25 European tree species and finds that absorptive root traits better explain tree growth than transport root traits.
