A schematic showing the links of tree-scale (root-, stem-, and leaf-level) and ecosystem-scale water relations during the CSAD at CH-Lae.

Global warming is increasing the frequency and severity of heatwaves worldwide, but their local expression is strongly modulated across hydroclimatic …

The browning or loss of tree leaves that can be observed during droughts may be a coping mechanism to deal with dry circumstances by avoiding additional water stress.

a 3-credit course introducing machine learning in earth and environmental sciences

Satellite data show declining global forest recovery from tree mortality since the 1990s, driven by warming and water scarcity. Canopy water recovers slower than greenness, stressing the need for a mu...

Scientific Data - Potential tree cover under current and future climate scenarios

Making use of 6 years of microclimate measurements in a large-scale tree diversity experiment covering a species richness gradient ranging from 1 to 24 tree species, we demonstrate that tree species ...

Abstract. Soil drying has multiple adverse impacts on the environment, society, and economy. Thus, it is crucial to monitor and characterise related drought events and to understand how underlying geo...

Water availability regulates tree growth and can have ‘legacy effects’ long after conditions change.

Abstract. Mapping in situ eddy covariance measurements of terrestrial land–atmosphere fluxes to the globe is a key method for diagnosing the Earth system from a data-driven perspective. We describe th...
