Physiology of Woody Plants, Fourth Edition has been fully revised and updated to include the significant progress that has been made in multiple fields of tree physiology, including woody plant responses to globally changing environments, the role of woody plants in biosphere-atmosphere interactions, and generalized trait-function relationships, including the multiple specialized and insightful contributions on individual facets of tree functioning and rich genetic information that has become available since the publication of the third edition. This reference is appropriate for undergraduate and graduate students, as well as practitioners and researchers seeking to learn about different aspects of tree functioning.This fourth edition includes both the classical concepts and recent developments in the field of tree physiology, and addresses a broad audience interested in gaining a basic understanding of woody plant functioning, as well as those wanting to refresh their knowledge of developments at the forefront of tree physiology. The book offers novel insight into the functioning of multiple physiological processes in woody plants, providing a basic interdisciplinary understanding of the controls of climatic and biotic factors responsible for tree growth in current and future climates.

This book synthesizes knowledge on the physiology and ecology of pines (Pinus spp.), a genus that dominates forests across the Northern Hemisphere and underpins global plantation forestry. It spans topics from anatomy and ecophysiology to ecosystem dynamics, covering evolutionary history, fire and insect adaptations, carbon and water relations, photosynthesis, stand hydrology, and responses to climate change. By integrating these perspectives, the volume highlights mechanisms driving pine performance and mortality and outlines adaptive strategies to sustain productivity, resilience, and ecosystem services under current and future environmental challenges.The book also identifies key research priorities, including tropical pine physiology, invasions of planted pines and pests, and the sensitivity of pine forests to intensifying global-change stressors.Part of the Tree Physiology series, this work is intended for researchers, graduate students, and practitioners in forestry, plant physiology, and ecology.

Plant-driven volatile organic compound (BVOC) emissions play a major role in atmospheric chemistry, including ozone and photochemical smog formation in the troposphere, and they extend the atmospheric lifetime of the key greenhouse gas, methane. Furthermore, condensation of photo-oxidation products of BVOCs leads to formation of secondary organic aerosols with profound implications for the earth's solar radiation budget and climate. Trees represent the plant life form that most contributes to BVOC emissions, which gives global forests a unique role in regulating atmospheric chemistry.Written by leading experts in the field, the focus is on recent advancements in understanding the controls on plant-driven BVOC emissions, including efforts to quantitatively predict emissions using computer models, particularly on elicitation of emissions under biotic and abiotic stresses, molecular mechanisms of volatile synthesis and emission and the role of emissions in plant stress tolerance.

The last 30 years has seen the development of increasingly sophisticated models that quantify canopy carbon exchange. These models are now essential parts of larger models for prediction and simulation of crop production, climate change, and regional and global carbon dynamics. There is thus an urgent need for increasing expertise in developing, use and understanding of these models. This in turn calls for an advanced, yet easily accessible textbook that summarizes the “canopy science” and introduces the present and the future scientists to the theoretical background of the current canopy models.This book presents current knowledge of functioning of plant canopies, models and strategies employed to simulate canopy function, and the significance of canopy architecture, physiology and dynamics in ecosystems, landscape and biosphere.
