First paper by my PhD student Marius Lambert just got accepted in #GMD. 👏
He shows that you can't correctly model plant hydraulics in cold regions unless you account for physiological adaptations to avoid frost damage (i.e., cold hardening). https://gmd.copernicus.org/preprints/gmd-2022-136/

Jargon-free summary: This study is an important step forward for climate models to correctly simulate the impact of droughts on vegetation growth across the arctic-boreal region.
