Tree species matter for forest microclimate regulation during the drought year 2018: disentangling environmental drivers and biotic drivers
Abstract Tree canopies are considered to effectively buffer climate extremes and to mitigate climate change effects. Droughts, which are predicted to become more frequent in the course of climate change, might alter the microclimatic cooling potential of trees. However, our understanding of how micr...
