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 multi-year drought affects tree growth responses influenced by neighborhood diversity and functional traits, finding stronger and site-specific diversity effects during prolonged drought.

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 assesses forest dieback in drinking water protection areas and finds it correlates with increased nitrate concentrations in groundwater.

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

Germany-wide 10 m remote sensing maps put 2018–2021 standing deadwood at 978 ± 529 kha, almost twice earlier satellite estimates; late frost, water deficit and heat were top predictors.

The paper investigates how tree species diversity and functional traits affect canopy space filling and productivity in tropical forests, finding that functional diversity and taxonomic diversity enhance overyielding.

This study examines how tree diversity and mycorrhizal associations affect forest growth resistance and resilience during extreme drought, finding that mixed mycorrhizal types enhance drought tolerance.
