This project investigates how different provenances of common beech and Douglas-fir trees respond to drought conditions. By analyzing growth performance, wood structure, and water transport capacity, it aims to identify tree varieties that thrive in drier climates, supporting sustainable forestry practices.
Climate change is confronting forestry with new challenges.
The ideal future forest would consist of species coping well with increasing drought and concurrently provide timber of high economic value.
Common beech and Douglas-fir are economically valuable species, but whether they will cope with increasing drought remains unclear.Yet, eco(physio)logical studies to assess plasticity of species in growth response and adaption to drought often concern trees from the distribution border, leading to…
