A relatively small number of rapidly spreading wildfire events burn disproportionately large areas. But beyond area burned, do fast fires produce distinct postfire ecological outcomes? Here, we measur...

Satellite observations reveal accelerating aboveground biomass loss across Europe’s forests since 2018, increasingly driven by natural disturbances. These trends weaken the forest carbon sink and chal...

Abstract. Climate change-induced weather extremes are increasing the intensity and frequency of disturbance events, posing a major threat to forests globally. In Central Europe, hotter and drier summe...

Purpose of Review Bark beetle outbreaks are intensifying under climate change, yet the links among drought stress, beetle attack and colonization, rapid tree mortality, and tree physiology, remain poo...

Interannual variation in species’ heat tolerance (T50).

These maps show the current level of water-stress experienced by forests. The first indicator, called the Forest Stress Index (FSI),

Women’s participation in science has risen sharply, but a Nature Index analysis finds that gender gaps in first and last authorship — markers of key scientific achievements — have barely shifted over the past decade.

Help us build a complete picture of dendrometers across the world. Become part of a vibrant community and a living, searchable open-access metadatabase. Increase the visibility of your research, connect, exchange and collaborate with dendrometer users around the globe.

ITMN seminar #31 with Kimberly Novick & Jessica Guo: The PSInet Database of plant water potential timeseries

How leaf temperature deviates from air temperature informs species’ thermoregulation strategies. This meta-analysis-based Review presents a global picture of thermoregulation behaviours and the implic...

Stomatal closure prevents significant water losses during drought events. Yet, leaves are not perfectly hermetic and dehydration ensues through residual water losses, known as minimum conductance (g...

Hi all, The Global Dendrometer Network will be hosting a splinter meeting at EGU, and you are very welcome to join us! Please let us know if you plan to attend by filling out this form by Friday 24th ...

Between funding cuts, facility closures, and the inevitable resignations that will follow, there’s virtually no way for the Forest Service to continue to do research at its current level or quality, w...
