The paper uses water stable isotopes to trace stemflow's contribution to water supply in adult and juvenile European beech trees, showing significant uptake by both.

This study examines how soil viral communities respond to drought and recovery in an artificial rainforest, finding they are more influenced by soil heterogeneity than moisture changes.

TreeTOP enables standardized manipulative experiments in forest canopies by providing accessible platforms for potted plants across different heights.

The paper uses 13CO2 pulse labeling to study how heat stress affects carbon allocation and volatile organic compound emissions in two tree species.

This study identifies early physiological indicators of heat-induced mortality in temperate tree saplings, detectable up to 10 months before visible damage.

This study compares VOC emissions from Picea abies and Fagus sylvatica, showing P. abies has higher terpenoid emissions, particularly from its rhizosphere.

AngleCam V2 estimates leaf inclination angles from daytime and nighttime photos across species, showing improved accuracy and generalization compared to its predecessor.

The paper measures leaf gas exchange and VOC emissions in a temperate forest canopy, finding seasonal and diurnal variations influenced by sun/shade conditions and water availability.

This study shows that Fagus sylvatica detects belowground stress signals from Picea abies neighbors, leading to increased shoot VOC emissions, with stronger responses in heterospecific pairs.

This study examines how heat and drought affect leaf VOC emissions and root exudates in Norway spruce saplings, finding synergistic responses under combined stress.

This study uses continuous chlorophyll fluorescence and carbon flux measurements to analyze how cold spells affect photosynthetic efficiency in a temperate mixed forest, showing species-specific responses.

This study examines spatio-temporal variations in root exudation across three temperate tree species, revealing species-specific responses to season, site, and soil characteristics.

This study examines chiral monoterpene dynamics in Norway spruce shoots and roots under drought, finding tissue-specific emissions and active regulation mechanisms.
