Our new results challenge the expectation that climate warming will offset carbon losses caused by heat and drought with a longer growing season in forests: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...
Decreasing Stem Growth in Common European Tree Species Despite Earlier Growth Onset
Our findings reveal that elevated winter and spring temperatures led to earlier attainment of annual growth levels, indicating an earlier onset of tree growth driven by early season warming. Despite ...
