Abstract:
Climate change is projected to have a significant ecological impact on natural ecosystems, most notably through direct and indirect modifications of local precipitation regimes. In addition, anthropic activities such as the removal of vegetation, soil proofing due to building, the absence of storm drains and crop over-irrigation will all increase the occurrence of flooding. As a result, forest species, and more specifically trees, will increasingly be exposed to soil waterlogging. It is now well established that such flooding events can lead to changes in forest distribution and composition. For such reasons, it is becoming increasingly important to study forest ecosystems and more particularly the adaptive potential of tree species to better understand the ecological plasticity of forest communities to environmental modifications.
