Threshold Responses of Canopy Cover and Tree Growth to Drought and Siberian silk Moth Outbreak in Southern Taiga <i>Picea obovata</i> Forests

The consecutive occurrence of drought and insect outbreaks could lead to cumulative, negative impacts on boreal forest productivity. To disentangle how both stressors affected productivity, we compared changes in tree canopy cover and radial growth after a severe outbreak in Siberian spruce (<i&g...
