En Europe, les arbres meurent de plus en plus prématurément. Une nouvelle étude sur les forêts françaises démontre qu'en plus des étés extrêmement secs, les anomalies climatiques favorisent aussi la mortalité des arbres – en particulier les printemps chauds et humides. www.wsl.ch/fr/news/pour...

Excited to share our new paper on leaf scorching. 🔥Early leaf browning during heat and drought is often interpreted as premature leaf senescence - but it may reflect rapid heat damage. Separating these processes is essential. www.nature.com/articles/s41... @wslresearch.bsky.social

🔥🌳Today at the wildfire-affected Marismillas area- #Doñana National Park (Spain) - to start tracking post-fire #vegetation recovery. Understanding recovery processes is key to predicting ecosystem resilience under increasing #fire activity & #climate change🌍 #Tree #Mortality @irnase.bsky.social

🌳 Tree mortality in 🇫🇷 France rose 1.5–4× (2015–2023). 500k+ trees analysed; warmer winters & springs are top drivers. Even wet springs increase mortality risk via 'structural overshoot'. Seasonal climate combos matter more than single extremes. #forests #climatechange www.nature.com/articles/s41...
