Article Synopsis
- - The study examines the effects of climate change on the tree growth of Pinus pinaster in Spain over the last 70 years, utilizing long-term data and classification algorithms to identify ecological trends.
- - Findings reveal a general decline in tree growth in three out of five ecological regions since the 1970s, correlating with rising temperatures and decreasing precipitation, while the Atlantic-influenced region remains stable.
- - The research suggests that forest management practices, like maintaining low basal area, may help mitigate growth declines in some areas, but forecasts predict that continued temperature increases could exacerbate these declines in the future.
