Trees grow their stem mostly at night to avoid high vapor pressure deficits.
Quite a surprise to me - never miss the link to physiological processes!

🔔New paper❗️ Treelines in the U.S. Northeast shifted upslope by 3 m/decade on average w/climate warming. Treeline form, topography, & mesoclimate affected the magnitude of the shift! Kudos to @JordonTourville for this PhD work @sunyesf w/@AppMtnClub!
