Does long-term drought or repeated defoliation affect seasonal leaf N cycling in young beech trees? Open
Forest trees adopt effective strategies to optimize nitrogen (N) use through internal N recycling. In the context of more recurrent environmental stresses due to climate change, the question remains of whether increased frequency of drough…

Residual water losses mediate the trade-off between growth and drought survival across saplings of 12 tropical rainforest tree species with contrasting hydraulic strategies Open
Knowledge of the physiological mechanisms underlying species vulnerability to drought is critical for better understanding patterns of tree mortality. Investigating plant adaptive strategies to drought should thus help to fill this knowled…

Relationships between non-structural carbohydrates reserves and growth resilience of Fagus sylvatica to extreme drought events Open
Following the 2018’s extreme drought summer in Central Europe and the recurrent episodes of drought in the summers 2019 and 2020, a massive dieback of European beech (Fagus sylvatica) has been observed over the following years in the…

Vulnerability to extreme drought is linked to hydraulic strategies and not carbohydrate use across 12 rainforest tree species Open
Knowledge on the physiological mechanisms underlying species vulnerability to drought is critical to better understand tree mortality patterns.Investigating the diversity of plant adaptive strategies to drought is therefore timely, especia…
