The role played by climatic and geographic factors in the resilience of these species to drought events is also evaluated. A total of 110 locations of the four species studied were selected, with data ranging from 1950 to 2007. The results show that the species that are less dependent on soil moisture best withstood droughts, while those more dependent on it showed better adaptability. Additionally, climatic and geographic factors had a stronger influence on the species’ resilience to soil drought at higher altitudes. The results of this study can help us to better understand forest ecosystem dynamics and their reaction to droughts in Mediterranean areas, where this phenomenon will be much more severe in the future due to climate change. info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MICINN/PID2020-114623RB-C33 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/ 2.4 2023 FORESTRY 21 / 89 = 0.236 2023 Q1 T1 0.589 2023 Forestry 2023 Q1 4.4 2023 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Almendra-Martín, Laura Luis, Martín de Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0002-7585-3636 Gaona, Jaime Martínez-Fernández, José 3006 430 Universidad de Zaragoza Dpto.
