This multifaceted relationship has been assessed in several regional studies, but spatially resolved, large-scale analyses are largely missing so far. Here we estimate recent changes in growth of 5800 beech trees (Fagus sylvatica L.) from 324 sites, representing the full geographic and climatic range of species. Future growth trends were predicted considering state-of-the-art climate scenarios. The validated models indicate growth declines across large region of the distribution in recent decades, and project severe future growth declines ranging from -20% to more than -50% by 2090, depending on the region and climate change scenario (i.e. CMIP6 SSP1-2.6 and SSP5-8.5). Forecasted forest productivity losses are most striking towards the southern distribution limit of Fagus sylvatica, in regions where persisting atmospheric high-pressure systems are expected to increase drought severity. The projected 21(st) century growth changes across Europe indicate serious ecological and economic consequences that require immediate forest adaptation. Tree ring data from a network of beech tree stands across Europe show evidence for a recent growth decline from 1986-2016 and project up to 50% growth reductions in some areas of Europe with future climate change. 000112516 540__ $$9info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess$$aby$$uhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/ 000112516 590__ $$a5.9$$b2022 000112516 592__ $$a2.251$$b2022 000112516 591__ $$aBIOLOGY$$b12 / 92 = 0.13$$c2022$$dQ1$$eT1 000112516 593__ $$aAgricultural and Biological Sciences (miscellaneous)$$c2022$$dQ1 000112516 593__ $$aMedicine (miscellaneous)$$c2022$$dQ1 000112516 593__ $$aBiochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (miscellaneous)$$c2022$$dQ1 000112516 594__ $$a7.6$$b2022 000112516 655_4 $$ainfo:eu-repo/semantics/article$$vinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion 000112516 700__ $$aZang, Christian S. 000112516 700__ $$aBuras, Allan 000112516 700__ $$aHacket-Pain, Andrew 000112516 700__ $$aEsper, Jan 000112516 700__ $$aSerrano-Notivoli, Roberto 000112516 700__ $$aHartl, Claudia 000112516 700__ $$aWeigel, Robert 000112516 700__ $$aKlesse, Stefan 000112516 700__ $$aResco de Dios, Victor 000112516 700__ $$aScharnweber, Tobias 000112516 700__ $$aDorado-Liñán, Isabel 000112516 700__ $$avan der Maaten-Theunissen, Marieke 000112516 700__ $$avan der Maaten, Ernst 000112516 700__ $$aJump, Alistair 000112516 700__ $$aMikac, Sjepan 000112516 700__ $$aBanzragch, Bat-Enerel 000112516 700__ $$aBeck, Wolfgang 000112516 700__ $$aCavin, Liam 000112516 700__ $$aClaessens, Hugues 000112516 700__ $$aCada, Vojtech 000112516 700__ $$aCufar, Katarina 000112516 700__ $$aDulamsuren, Choimaa 000112516 700__ $$aGricar, Jozica 000112516 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0002-4053-6681$$aGil-Pelegrín, Eustaquio$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000112516 700__ $$aJanda, Pavel 000112516 700__ $$aKazimirovic, Marko 000112516 700__ $$aKreyling, Juergen 000112516 700__ $$aLatte, Nicolas 000112516 700__ $$aLeuschner, Christoph 000112516 700__ $$aLongares, Luis Alberto 000112516 700__ $$aMenzel, Annette 000112516 700__ $$aMerela, Maks 000112516 700__ $$aMotta, Renzo 000112516 700__ $$aMuffler, Lena 000112516 700__ $$aNola, Paola 000112516 700__ $$aPetritan, Any Mary 000112516 700__ $$aPetritan, Ion Catalin 000112516 700__ $$aPrislan, Peter 000112516 700__ $$aRubio-Cuadrado, Álvaro 000112516 700__ $$aRydval, Miloš 000112516 700__ $$aStajic, Branko 000112516 700__ $$aSvoboda, Miroslav 000112516 700__ $$aToromani, Elvin 000112516 700__ $$aTrotsiuk, Volodymyr 000112516 700__ $$aWilmking, Martin 000112516 700__ $$aZlatanov, Tzvetan 000112516 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0002-7585-3636$$aLuis, Martín de$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000112516 7102_ $$13006$$2430$$aUniversidad de Zaragoza$$bDpto.
