Biological Flora of the British Isles: Fagus sylvatica (2012, background): “Fagus sylvatica is fairly conservative in its use of water and has been measured as having sun-leaf conductance 30% lower than in Quercus petraea (Backes & Leuschner 2000) and 40% lower than in Fraxinus excelsior (Köcher et al. 2009).”
Fine root biomass and dynamics in beech forests across a precipitation gradient – is optimal resource partitioning theory applicable to water‐limited mature trees? (2013, background): “…500 to >2000 mm yr 1, it reaches its highest vigour in suboceanic to oceanic climates and has been found to respond sensitively to drought (Magnani & Borhetti 1995; Backes & Leuschner 2000; Leuschner et al. 2001a; Leuzinger et al. 2005; Granier et al. 2007; K€ocher et al. 2009; R€uhr et al. 2009).”
Within-canopy variation in photosynthetic capacity, SLA and foliar N in temperate broad-leaved trees with contrasting shade tolerance (2014, background): “nus and Tilia mid- to late-successional, and Fraxinus earlyto mid-successional), physiology and crown morphology (Köcher et al. 2009; Ellenberg and Leuschner 2010).”
