TLDR
In this article, a review of tree physiological responses to key environmental stress factors and their combinations are analyzed from seedlings to mature trees, concluding that combined stresses can influence survival of large trees even more than chronic exposure to a single predictable stress such as drought.About:

Spatial Prediction Models for Soil Stoichiometry in Complex Terrains: A Case Study of Schrenk’s Spruce Forest in the Tianshan Mountains
TL;DR: In this article , the spatial patterns of concentrations of soil carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus in Schrenk's spruce (Picea schrenkiana Fisch. & C. A. Mey) forest in the Tianshan Mountains were estimated using four regression models: multiple linear regression, stepwise regression, ridge regression and lasso regression.

Climate change effects on UK woodlands: can species' interactions mitigate the impacts of increased drought?
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the role of climate change in growing seasons length and found that climate change was correlated with the number of seasons reaching a certain length and with the amount of rainfall.
DissertationDOI
Remote sensing tools for the objective quantification of tree structural condition from individual trees to landscape scale assessment
TL;DR: The research presented in this thesis develops RS tools for assessing tree structural condition, at a range of investigative scales which will enable resource-limited tree managers to direct remedial interventions in an optimised and precise way.

Root water gates and not changes in root structure provide new insights into plant physiological responses and adaptations to drought, flooding and salinity
Jean-Christophe Domec,Jean-Christophe Domec,John S. King,Mary Jane Carmichael,Anna Treado Overby,Remi Wortemann R,William K. Smith,Guofang Miao,Asko Noormets,Daniel M. Johnson +9 more
TL;DR: It is found that drought, flooding and flooding-salinity reduced Kroot and root AQP activity in Pinus taeda, whereas Kroot of the flood-tolerant Taxodium distichum did not decline under flooding, and AQP-controlled transport efficiency varied among organs and species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Carbon Allocation of Quercus mongolica Fisch. ex Ledeb. across Different Life Stages Differed by Tree and Shrub Growth Forms at the Driest Site of Its Distribution
TL;DR: In this article , the authors examined the effect of tree-to-shrub shift on non-structural carbohydrate (NSC) storage in Quercus mongolica Fisch.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the first global assessment of recent tree mortality attributed to drought and heat stress and identify key information gaps and scientific uncertainties that currently hinder our ability to predict tree mortality in response to climate change and emphasizes the need for a globally coordinated observation system.
