Abstrakti At its northern distribution limits, growth of Scots pine is generally driven by summer temperature. However, some studies found a decoupling of tree growth and summer temperature in certain parts of boreal Eurasia and propose reduced water availability as a possible explanation (e.g. Wilm...
