Global field observations of tree die-off reveal hotter-drought fingerprint for Earth's forests

William M. Hammond et al.

Summary: This study utilizes a geo-referenced global database to quantify the impact of drought and hotter climate on tree mortality events. The research finds a strong correlation between global hotter-drought climate signals and tree mortality, and predicts a nonlinear increase in mortality frequency under projected warming.

Climate-change-driven growth decline of European beech forests

Edurne Martinez del Castillo et al.

Summary: The growth of past, present, and future forests is affected by climate variability. While regional studies have assessed this relationship, large-scale analyses are lacking. This study estimates recent changes in growth of beech trees and predicts severe future growth declines across Europe. The findings indicate serious ecological and economic consequences that require immediate forest adaptation.

Turgor - a limiting factor for radial growth in mature conifers along an elevational gradient

Richard L. Peters et al.

Summary: Wood formation processes are strongly influenced by environmental factors, with warmer and drier summers reducing growth rates. Turgor-driven growth should be considered in global vegetation models to accurately represent forest carbon sinks.

Tip-to-base xylem conduit widening as an adaptation: causes, consequences, and empirical priorities

Mark E. Olson et al.

Summary: Research on terrestrial vascular plants shows that the diameter of xylem water-conducting conduits widens predictably with distance from the stem tip, which is likely an adaptation to minimize hydraulic resistance as the stem grows longer. This adaptive explanation is supported by optimality models predicting the observed pattern and is more consistent with data compared to nonadaptive explanations like temperature, drought, or turgor limitations.

foreMast: an R package for predicting beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) masting events in European countries

Ugo Chiavetta et al.

Summary: Forecasting annual seed production, especially in European beech forests, is crucial for forest management. The foreMast R package developed in this study shows promising results in predicting masting events based on climate data, with potential applications in both climate change research and forest management practices.

Satellite data and machine learning reveal the incidence of late frost defoliations on Iberian beech forests

Jose Miguel Olano et al.

Summary: The study shows that climate warming is causing earlier leaf unfolding in temperate deciduous forests, leading to longer growing seasons but also increasing the risk of late frost defoliation events. Using satellite imagery and machine learning techniques, the researchers identified spatiotemporal patterns of late frost events in European beech forests in the Iberian range. They found that most late frost defoliation events occurred in western forests at high elevations with lower than average precipitation.

Xylem Phenology and Growth Response of European Beech, Silver Fir and Scots Pine along an Elevational Gradient during the Extreme Drought Year 2018

Elena Larysch et al.

Summary: The study revealed that European beech and silver fir showed different responses in xylem cell differentiation and growth under the 2018 drought, with beech being significantly affected at the lowest elevation. Overall, there were species-specific differences in the response of xylem phenology and growth to drought.

60-year record of stem xylem anatomy and related hydraulic modification under increased summer drought in ring- and diffuse-porous temperate broad-leaved tree species

Jorma Zimmermann et al.

Summary: By combining dendrochronological time-series analysis with radial vessel features, the study reveals that the reconstruction of hydraulic properties can enhance our understanding of tree species' acclimation potential to climate change. Different tree species exhibit considerable plasticity in their hydraulic system in response to drought climate, but also show evidence of drought sensitivity.

Delayed effect of drought on xylem vulnerability to embolism in Fagus sylvatica

Stephane Herbette et al.

Summary: Research shows that European beech saplings display less vulnerability to embolism in newly formed branches after experiencing severe drought, indicating a lagged acclimation of this trait to drought events.

Genetic signatures of divergent selection in European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) are associated with the variation in temperature and precipitation across its distribution range

Dragos Postolache et al.

Summary: The study reveals that the adaptive genetic structure of European beech is highly integrated, with both phenology and stress-related genes contributing balanced to local adaptation, and temperature and precipitation regimes also playing a key role in genetic clines.

Warmer springs have increased the frequency and extension of late-frost defoliations in southern European beech forests

Gabriel Sanguesa-Barreda et al.

Summary: Climate change is leading to an increase in extreme weather events, impacting forest function and composition. This study focused on late frost defoliation (LFD) events in southern European beech forests, revealing an increasing trend in LFD occurrences. By analyzing tree-ring data, researchers found that warm temperatures before late-spring frosts negatively affected beech growth, especially in the southernmost populations like those in Spain and southern Italy.

Genomic basis for drought resistance in European beech forests threatened by climate change

Markus Pfenninger et al.

Summary: In the face of increasing drought conditions in Central Europe due to global climate change, a study on European beeches found that drought resistance is influenced by genotype rather than environment, with specific genetic markers identified through SNP detection. This indicates that drought resistance in European beech is a moderately polygenic trait that can be enhanced through natural selection, management, and breeding.

Different Wood Anatomical and Growth Responses in European Beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) at Three Forest Sites in Slovenia

Domen Arni et al.

Summary: The study found significant differences in tree-ring width (TRW), vessel density (VD), and relative conductive area (RCTA) among different sites. Precipitation and maximum temperature were identified as key climatic factors influencing TRW and vessel characteristics. Differences in climate-growth relationships were confirmed between sites, with late-flushing beech population showing the least pronounced response to climate. Mean vessel area (MVA) had no relationship with TRW or other vessel features. Wet and dry years resulted in reduced TRW and changes in vessel area for beech across all sites. The findings suggest that predicted changes in temperature and precipitation regimes due to climate change will impact tree-ring increments and wood structure in beech, but responses may vary between sites or populations.

Amplifying feedback loop between growth and wood anatomical characteristics of Fraxinus excelsior explains size-related susceptibility to ash dieback

Stefan Klesse et al.

Summary: The study suggests that smaller or slower-growing trees are more susceptible to crown dieback compared to larger or faster-growing trees. Factors such as defoliation, vessel size, and non-structural carbohydrate concentrations play a role in this phenomenon, leading to stronger symptoms of dieback and higher mortality rates in smaller and slower-growing trees.
