Traits to stay, traits to move: a review of functional traits to assess sensitivity and adaptive capacity of temperate and boreal trees to climate change (2016, background): “Species requiring warmer temperatures to initiate bud burst have shown to be more susceptible to late spring cold periods than those that leaf-out earlier on average (Vitasse et al. 2014).”
Where, why and how? Explaining the low‐temperature range limits of temperate tree species (2016, background): “Although we could transplant only young trees, we have shown that seedlings and adults exert the same freezing resistance during flushing, provided data for the same stage of bud/leaf development are compared (Vitasse et al. 2014a).”
Plant phenology and global climate change: Current progresses and challenges (2019, background): “However, young and mature trees may show substan‐ tially different phenological responses to the same environmental changes (Vitasse et al., 2014).”
