The study evaluates resilience of urban tree and shrub species to an extreme heatwave using functional traits, finding that crown dieback better predicts thermal stress than survival.

This study investigates stomatal decoupling under extreme heat by comparing two rainforest and two semi-arid tree species, finding that decoupling occurs in some species but not others, linked to transpirational cooling capacity and light conditions.

This study shows passive irrigation improves water availability and reduces heat stress in urban Lophostemon confertus trees, enhancing their survival during hot, dry periods.

The paper investigates how temperature affects tree seedling growth by analyzing the contributions of photosynthesis, respiration, and carbon allocation processes.
