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:

Non-structural carbohydrates and sugar export in grapevine leaves exposed to different light regimes
Silvina Dayer,Silvina Dayer,Germán Murcia,Jorge Prieto,Martín F. Durán,Liliana Martínez,Patricia Piccoli,Jorge Perez Peña +7 more
TL;DR: Examining the relationships between photosynthesis, carbohydrate metabolism and the expression of related-genes in leaves of grapevine grown under different radiation regimes allows us to understand the physiological and molecular behavior of leaves exposed to different Radiation regimes, which can be used to design appropriate vineyard management practices.

Past-century decline in forest regeneration potential across a latitudinal and elevational gradient in Canada
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a process-based ecophysiological model to examine changes in forest regeneration conditions across an elevational and latitudinal gradient in Alberta, Canada from 1923 to 2012.
Journal ArticleDOI
The contrasting effects of short-term climate change on the early recruitment of tree species.
TL;DR: The authors' simulations illustrate that warmer temperatures may increase seed production, but they will have a negative effect on establishment and survival, and it is shown that increasing temperatures at the southern location will have stronger detrimental effects on recruitment than similar changes at the northern locations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spatio-temporal water uptake patterns of tree saplings are not altered by interspecific interaction in the early stage of a subtropical forest
TL;DR: According to the results, soil water uptake complementarity could only occur through inherent (fundamental) specific differences in water uptake niches based on sapling specialization, while phenotypic adjustments to interspecific interaction or neighbor diversity are less important.

A lifetime perspective of biomass allocation in Quercus pubescens trees in a dry, alpine valley
TL;DR: It is concluded that trees beyond seedling stage show different responses to variation in drought than the better-studied seedlings, suggesting more restricted plasticity in biomass allocation in these mature trees than in seedlings.

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.
