dc.description.abstract | The projected increase in water stress in boreal forest ecosystems due to climate change is predicted to alter many phenological responses in trees. To test this prediction, under controlled conditions, I subjected seedlings of six Acadian Forest coniferous species to three drought treatments and documented their survival, height growth and biomass allocation patterns. The drought treatments included early-season drought, late season drought, and a control. | |
