Responses of Trees and Forests to Climate Change

Dear Colleagues,

Emissions of greenhouse gases linked to human activities have caused rapid changes to our climate and other environments worldwide. Because of the long longevity of trees and forests and the variation and complexity of the environmental conditions that they grow in, it is particularly important for us to better understand how trees and forests respond to the continual changes in the climate and environment so that we can reliably project the future performance and structures of forests and trees. This Topic welcomes papers that explore how trees and forests respond to climatic variations and other environmental factors across all levels, ranging from the molecular and individual tree perspectives to entire forest ecosystems and landscapes.
