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

TL;DR: This work developed the first country-wide Scots pine dendrochronological network in Romania consisting of 34 chronologies of basal area increment (BAI), and including 1401 individual tree-ring width series to identify foci of future forest dieback and high tree mortality.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of climate and air pollution on radial growth of silver fir and Norway spruce in mixed age-varied (56 − 146 years) forests in the Jeseniky Protected Landscape Area, the Czech Republic was investigated.

Tree Species Selection in the Face of Drought Risk—Uncertainty in Forest Planning
TL;DR: It is most important in forest planning to clearly state the management goals and to carefully explore if the goals can be met under climate change and if the uncertainty due to climate projections significantly affects the results of species selection.

Monoterpene responses to interacting effects of drought stress and infection by the fungus Heterobasidion parviporum in two clones of Norway spruce (Picea abies)
TL;DR: Although drought stress decreased the total absolute contents of monoterpenes, total monoterpene concentrations significantly increased in response to infection by H. parviporum.
