TLDR
This paper showed that under forecasted changes in temperature and precipitation, there could be a decline of economically valuable species, which would lead to a loss in the value of European forest land.Abstract:
European forests are threatened by climate change with impacts on the distribution of tree species. Previous discussions on the consequences of biome shifts have concentrated only on ecological issues; however, research now shows that under forecasted changes in temperature and precipitation there could be a decline of economically valuable species, which would lead to a loss in the value of European forest land.read more

Climate change-induced background tree mortality is exacerbated towards the warm limits of the species ranges
TL;DR: In this paper , an influence of the recent changes in temperature or rainfall was demonstrated, increasing background tree mortality rates for 2/3 of the 12 studied tree species, suggesting in these areas a progressive replacement by more xeric species.

TL;DR: In this article, five replicate common gardens of Greek and Italian provenances of Quercus ilex, Q. pubescens and Q. frainetto seedlings (210 each per plantation) were established in Central Italy, NE Greece (two) and Southern Germany (two, including Q. robur) to assess their performance under different climate conditions.

Wood Architecture and Composition Are Deeply Remodeled in Frost Sensitive Eucalyptus Overexpressing CBF/DREB1 Transcription Factors.
Phi Bang Cao,Raphael Ployet,Raphael Ployet,Chien Nguyen,Annabelle Dupas,Nathalie Ladouce,Yves Martinez,Jacqueline Grima-Pettenati,Christiane Marque,Fabien Mounet,Chantal Teulières +10 more
TL;DR: Results suggest that CBF plays a central role in the cross-talk between response to cold and wood formation and that the remodeling of wood is part of the adaptive strategies to face cold stress.

Effect of Climate Change on the Growth of Endangered Scree Forests in Krkonoše National Park (Czech Republic)
Vojtěch Hájek,Stanislav Vacek,Zdeněk Vacek,Jan Cukor,Václav Šimůnek,Michaela Šimková,Anna Prokůpková,Ivo Králíček,Daniel Bulušek +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of environmental factors on the radial growth of five tree species (European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.), Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst), sycamore maple (Acer pseudoplatanus L.), European ash (Fraxinus excelsior L.), and mountain elm (Ulmus glabra Huds.)) was studied in the mixed stands (105-157 years) in the western Krkonose Mountains (Czech Republic) concerning climate change.
