Chronic warming and dry soils limit carbon uptake and growth despite a longer growing season in beech and oak
Charlotte Grossiord, Yann Vitasse, Margaux Clara Lou Didion-Gency
Progressively warmer and drier climatic conditions impact tree phenology and carbon cycling with large consequences for forest carbon balance. However, it remains unclear how individual impacts of warming and drier soils differ from their combined effects ...
Cary2023Genetic signatures of divergent selection in European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) are associated with the variation in temperature and precipitation across its distribution range
High genetic variation and extensive gene flow may help forest trees with adapting to ongoing climate change, yet the genetic bases underlying their adaptive potential remain largely unknown. We investigated range-wide patterns of potentially adaptive gene ...
WILEY2021Ecological response of tree saplings to simulated climate change along an elevational gradient (CLIMARBRE)
María Paula Sanginés De Cárcer
Switzerland will face higher temperature increases than the global average, which will have strong impacts on the mountain ecosystems. How tree species will respond to future climate change scenarios, and what mechanisms will they adopt, remains as a gap o ...
EPFL2017Past and future landscape dynamics in pasture-woodlands of the Swiss Jura Mountains under climate change
Alexandre Buttler, François Gillet, Thomas Spiegelberger, Joël Chételat, Alexander Ludwig Johannes Peringer
Silvopastoral systems are traditional components of the landscape in the Swiss Jura Mountains, and are promising approaches for the sustainable management of mountain areas worldwide. Due to complex vegetation dynamics, pasture-woodlands are very vulnerabl ...
