Disentangling Atmospheric and Water Shortage Stresses Is Key to Anticipate Forest Dynamics With Climate Change

Studies assessing changes in vegetation with climate change have not separated atmospheric and water shortage stresses, although they drive different vegetation patterns in relation to continentality, water balance and bedrock types. We aim to assess how these two stresses will likely impact forest communities.
