Nice to be in #Pfynwald helping Giovanni Bortolami assess Scots pine trees' responses to vpd and drought in the amazing #VPDrought field site! Looking forward to seeing the results!

#VPDrought: old-growth forest with two precipitation manipulation treatments: irrigation since 2003 (1200 mm in total) and now 50% rainfall exclusion (300 mm) - will be combined with VPD manipulation before summer.
