Low genetic diversity and high phenotypic plasticity for growth traits and growth-climate relationships in Pinus nigra Arnold, the European black pine Open
Radial growth is a fitness-related adaptive trait in forest trees that is expected to vary among populations under variable habitat conditions. Common gardens are widely used for the investigation of genetic variability, genotype by enviro…

Paleorecords Reveal Biological Mechanisms Crucial for Reliable Species Range Shift Projections Amid Rapid Climate Change Open
The recent acceleration of global climate warming has created an urgent need for reliable projections of species distributions, widely used by natural resource managers. Such projections have been mainly produced by species distribution mo…

Enhancing environmental models with a new downscaling method for global radiation in complex terrain Open
Global radiation is a key climate input in process-based models (PBMs) for forests, as it determines photosynthesis, transpiration and the canopy energy balance. While radiation is highly variable at a fine spatial resolution in complex te…

The Relationship Between Maturation Size and Maximum Tree Size From Tropical to Boreal Climates Open
The fundamental trade‐off between current and future reproduction has long been considered to result in a tendency for species that can grow large to begin reproduction at a larger size. Due to the prolonged time required to reach maturity…

PDG-Arena: An ecophysiological model for characterizing tree-tree interactions in heterogeneous and mixed stands Open
In the context of the ongoing climate and biodiversity crises, mixed forest stands are increasingly considered as a sustainable management alternative to monocultures. We developed a new individual-based and process-based forest growth mod…

Linking seed size and number to trait syndromes in trees Open
Aim Our understanding of the mechanisms that maintain forest diversity under changing climate can benefit from knowledge about traits that are closely linked to fitness. We tested whether the link between traits and seed number and seed si…

Biodiversity, climate change, and adaptation in the Mediterranean Open
Potential for, and limits to, adaptation to environmental changes are critical for resilience and risk mitigation. The Mediterranean basin is a mosaic of biodiversity‐rich ecosystems long affected by human influence, whose resilience is no…

Comparing statistical and mechanistic models to identify the drivers of mortality within a rear-edge beech population Open
Since several studies have been reporting an increase in the decline of forests, a major issue in ecology is to better understand and predict tree mortality. The interactions between the different factors and the physiological processes gi…
