Swiss Federal Research Institute for Forest, Snow and Landscape Research WSL, Zürcherstrasse 111, CH 8903 Birmensdorf, Switzerland
ScientificWorldJournal 7:231-9. 2007..Among the factors not addressed in this study, changed forest use may have also contributed to increased beetle populations and Scots pine mortality, whereas air pollution seems to be of lesser importance...- The upward shift in altitude of pine mistletoe (Viscum album ssp. austriacum) in Switzerland--the result of climate warming?Matthias Dobbertin
WSL Swiss Federal Institute for Forest, Snow and Landscape Research, Zürcherstrasse 111, 8903 Birmendsorf, Switzerland
Int J Biometeorol 50:40-7. 2005..For the predicted temperature rise by 2030, the limit for mistletoe would increase above 1,600 m altitude... 
Provenance-specific growth responses to drought and air warming in three European oak species (Quercus robur, Q. petraea and Q. pubescens)Matthias Arend
Swiss Federal Research Institute for Forest, Snow and Landscape Research, Zürcherstrasse 111, Birmensdorf, Switzerland
Tree Physiol 31:287-97. 2011....- Morphological and physiological responses of Scots pine fine roots to water supply in a dry climatic region in SwitzerlandIvano Brunner
Swiss Federal Institute for Forest, Snow and Landscape Research WSL, Zürcherstrasse 111, CH 8903 Birmensdorf, Switzerland
Tree Physiol 29:541-50. 2009..The lack of a marked response of the fine root biomass to irrigation in the low- and high-productivity trees suggests that fine roots have a high priority for within-tree carbon allocation... - Effect of irrigation on needle morphology, shoot and stem growth in a drought-exposed Pinus sylvestris forestMatthias Dobbertin
Swiss Federal Research Institute WSL, Zürcherstrasse 111, CH 8903 Birmensdorf, Switzerland
Tree Physiol 30:346-60. 2010..A simple drought index before and during the irrigation explained most of the variation found in the parameters for both irrigated and control trees... - Using slides to test for changes in crown defoliation assessment methods. Part I: Visual assessment of slidesMatthias Dobbertin
WSL, Swiss Federal Institute for Forest, Snow and Landscape Research, Birmensdorf, Switzerland
Environ Monit Assess 98:295-306. 2004..We conclude that slide series can be used to detect changes in assessment methods. However, potential observer bias calls for more objective methods of assessment... - Using slides to test for changes in crown defoliation assessment methods Part II: Application of the image analysis system CROCOMatthias Dobbertin
Swiss Federal Institute for Forest, Snow and Landscape Research, WSL, Zürcherstrasse 111, CH 8903 Birmensdorf, Switzerland
Environ Monit Assess 102:167-78. 2005..We conclude, therefore, that CROCO can be used to detect past and future changes in assessment methods without bias if poor quality photographs are avoided... - Mistletoe-induced crown degradation in Scots pine in a xeric environmentAndreas Rigling
Swiss Federal Institute for Forest, Snow and Landscape Research, WSL, Zürcherstrasse 111, CH 8903, Birmensdorf, Switzerland
Tree Physiol 30:845-52. 2010..Therefore, pine mistletoe increases the risk of drought-induced mortality of its host when growing in a xeric environment... - Ecologically implausible carbon response?Wim de Vries
