Aging Beech Trees: Nature's Resilience #sciencefather #climatechange #scientist
๐ณ Over the past decade, European beech trees have faced a troubling trend: a significant loss in growth due to the combined pressures of aging, ๐ฟ drought, and ๐จ️ late frost events. As these trees grow older, their ability to cope with environmental stress diminishes, making them more vulnerable to climate extremes. ๐ Research shows that older beech trees struggle more to recover from droughts, and their growth rings reveal how these stressors leave lasting scars year after year. ❄️ Late frosts, hitting after early spring growth, can damage new leaves and buds, setting the trees back further. The result is a decade marked by slower growth and reduced resilience, which could have serious implications for forest health and carbon storage in the face of ongoing climate change. ๐๐ก️
