Rain over the weekend reduced the tree water deficit (TWD) in most trees of all species. However, we are far from an average situation. Most trees are still showing TWDs…

Drought intensity reaches a new (last?) peak in this summer. Forest trees of all regions investigated are heavily affected according to our drought-indicator TWD (tree water deficit). The values are…

Drought in Switzerland is further intensifying. Particularly forest trees in the lowlands (Mittelland) show steadily increasing tree water deficit-induced stem shrinkage (TWD, Baumwasserdefizit). The values are far above the TWDs…

Rain over the weekend brought some stress relief to forest trees in Switzerland, particularly in the Northern Alps and in the Valais (see situation on July 16). In these two…

Trees in the Northern Alps and in the Valais show distinctly higher tree water deficit-induced stem shrinkage (TWD) than in the years before. We conclude that the investigated tree species…

TreeNet raw data of the past 7 days are now freely browsable. Try the following links to see the latest data of individual dendrometers of the entire network all available…

We are currently analyzing the drivers of wood growth of Swiss forest trees over the past five years (preliminary results). Figure 1  Growth trends of the main tree species in…
