They are located between 45° and 70° north latitude, with two-thirds of all boreal forests located in Eurasia (Larsen, 1980). Globally, boreal forests cover approximately 12% of the earth's surface (Launiainen et al., 2019), representing the second largest biome behind tropical forests (Bonan, 2008). The historical 2018 drought registered across Central and Northern Europe, and considered the most severe in the last 250 years (MSB, 2017 Schuldt et al., 2020), had major impacts on northern boreal forests, including severe tree-level stress, record low stream flows, and changes in water and carbon fluxes (Gómez-Gener et al., 2020 Hari et al., 2020 Lindroth et al., 2020 Schuldt et al., 2020). This study highlights unique species-specific responses to drought, which are additionally driven by a codependent interaction among tree size, relative topographic position, and unique regional climate conditions. Despite lower Q DZ during severe drought, drought spells were interspersed with small precipitation events and overcast conditions, and Q DZ returned to pre-drought conditions relatively quickly. Overall, Q DZ reductions (using non-drought Q DZ as reference) were less pronounced in larger trees during severe drought, but there was a species-specific pattern: Q DZ reductions were greater in pine trees at high elevations and greater in spruce trees at lower elevations. In general, pine showed a greater Q DZ control compared to spruce during periods of severe drought (standardized precipitation–evapotranspiration index: SPEI < −1.5), suggesting that the latter are more sensitive to drought. We monitored 30 Pinus sylvestris (pine) and 30 Picea abies (spruce) trees distributed across a topographic gradient in northern Sweden. More specifically, we examined how tree species, size, and topographic position affected drought response in high-latitude mature boreal forest trees. Here, we tested how daily whole-tree transpiration ( Q, Liters day −1) and Q normalized for mean daytime vapor pressure deficit ( Q DZ, Liters day −1 kPa −1) were affected by the historic 2018 drought in Europe. However, most drought-related studies on high-latitude boreal forests (>50°N) have been conducted in North America, with few studies quantifying the response in European and Eurasian boreal forests.

TreeSize Free is a Freeware software in the category System Utilities developed by JAM Software. TreeSize supports Unicode file names and considers NTFS compression when calculating the allocated disk space. The space, which is wasted by the file system can be displayed and the results can be printed in a report. Scanning is done in a thread, so you can already see results while TreeSize is working. Each folder can be expanded in Explorer-like style to see the size of its subfolders. TreeSize Free can be started from the context menu of a folder or drive and shows you the size of this folder, including its subfolders.
TreeSize Free tells you where precious space has gone to. Every hard disk is too small if you just wait long enough.
