Responses of forest trees to single and multiple environmental stresses from seedlings to mature plants: Past stress history, stress interactions, tolerance and acclimation
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:

Forest Trees Under Air Pollution as a Factor of Climate Change
Rainer Matyssek,Alessandra Rodrigues Kozovits,Jörg-Peter Schnitzler,Hans Pretzsch,Jochen Dieler,Gerhard Wieser +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focused on nitrogen deposition and tropospheric ozone (O3), the latter being regarded as potentially most detrimental to vegetation, and hence negating carbon sink strength and storage.

The Emission of the Floral Scent of Four Osmanthus fragrans Cultivars in Response to Different Temperatures.
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that temperatures can greatly influence the emission of floral scent, and depend on different cultivars and different types of compounds.

Genetic variation, phenotypic stability, and repeatability of drought response in European larch throughout 50 years in a common garden experiment.
Jan-Peter George,Michael Grabner,Sandra Karanitsch-Ackerl,Konrad Mayer,Lambert Weißenbacher,Silvio Schueler +5 more
TL;DR: Analysis of genetic variation in drought sensitivity and degree of genetic determination in a 50-year-old common garden experiment in the drought-prone northeastern Austria suggests that European larch posseses high genetic variation among and within provenances that can be used for assisted migration and breeding programs.

Inter-specific tolerance to recurrent droughts of pine species revealed in saplings rather than adult trees
Enrique Andivia,Paloma Ruiz-Benito,Paloma Díaz-Martínez,Noelia Carro-Martínez,Miguel A. Zavala,Jaime Madrigal-González +5 more
TL;DR: Increased magnitude and frequency of drought events led to inter-specific differences in drought responses, which were revealed in saplings rather than adults after the 2012 drought, highlighting the need to include juveniles and demographic rates in models aiming to describe and predict species responses to climate change in dry-edge forests.
Journal ArticleDOI
Causes of variation in leaf-level drought tolerance within an Amazonian forest
TL;DR: It is proposed that πtlp is a robust trait, and is useful as one index of species’ drought tolerance, and would considerably advance knowledge on leaf drought tolerance in hyperdiverse communities and would thus likely shed light on the resilience of such vulnerable species-rich ecosystem.

TL;DR: The first volume of the IPCC's Fourth Assessment Report as mentioned in this paper was published in 2007 and covers several topics including the extensive range of observations now available for the atmosphere and surface, changes in sea level, assesses the paleoclimatic perspective, climate change causes both natural and anthropogenic, and climate models for projections of global climate.

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.
