“…The underlying processes responsible for these observed relationships are poorly understood, which hampers our ability to predict future changes in tree growth (Guillemot et al, 2017;Hacket-Pain et al, 2016). A significant contributor to this uncertainty lies in the mechanisms leading to time-lagged effects of climate on tree growth (Hacket-Pain et al, 2015;Peltier et al, 2018;Veuillen et al, 2023). This paper is motivated to address the abovementioned aspects with special regard to WS and drought memory effects on tree ring growth of pine tree stands in the dry region of Berlin, Germany.…”

Over the last 30 years, the impact of climate change in Berlin, Germany, has manifested in the form of reduced summer rainfall, elevated temperatures, and a notable rise in the frequency of days with temperatures surpassing 30°C. All of them are leading to a decreasing water supply and increasing risk of drought. Various field, laboratory, and numerical simulation studies have been done for deriving information on long‐term potential and actual evapotranspiration, water stress during the vegetation period (April–September), and tree ring growth of various pine tree stands in Berlin. Data analysis highlights periodical climate patterns and complex interactions between drought, water supply, and plant growth. Annual tree ring growth is not only related to the actual weather conditions but also to the past climate years. With decreasing water supply, this kind of drought memory effect increases up to 5 years into the past. For Berlin's climate, it is noteworthy that late summer, particularly the water stress in August, represents the most sensitive indicator for tree ring growth.For regionalization purposes, long‐term numerical simulations were done to derive hydro‐pedo‐transfer‐functions (HPTFs) predicting the water stress coefficient of the growing season (Eact‐s/Epot‐s). They only need easily available information such as soil texture, climate water balance, and groundwater depth. Two HPTFs were successfully tested and can be easily applied by geo‐information systems. However, for other climate regions and tree species, HPTFs need to be adapted.

“…When trees are under drought conditions, both the low water content in the soil and the high evaporation cause alterations in their physiology, with cambial activity being one of the processes that are affected from the outset [23]. This is because the formation of xylem cells is limited by the following two drought-related effects: the loss of turgor and the closure of stomata that reduce carbon assimilation [24,25].…”

This study investigates the relationship between soil moisture and the growth of Pinus halepensis, P. nigra, P. sylvestris and P. uncinata, which are some of the main pine species of the Iberian Peninsula, and the response of these species to soil drought. The role played by climatic and geographic factors in the resilience of these species to drought events is also evaluated. A total of 110 locations of the four species studied were selected, with data ranging from 1950 to 2007. The results show that the species that are less dependent on soil moisture best withstood droughts, while those more dependent on it showed better adaptability. Additionally, climatic and geographic factors had a stronger influence on the species’ resilience to soil drought at higher altitudes. The results of this study can help us to better understand forest ecosystem dynamics and their reaction to droughts in Mediterranean areas, where this phenomenon will be much more severe in the future due to climate change.
