Abstract Temporal growth variability is an important indicator of ecosystem function under climate change. However, we still lack a unified understanding how conditions, change (trends and variability), nitrogen (N) deposition, functional traits stand factors together affect radial variability. Using global conifer tree‐ring records (123 species from 1780 sites) during 1970–2010 to calculate variability, assessed abiotic directly indirectly via with boosted regression tree structural equation models, examined the differences among continents (North America, Asia Europe). We found: (a) was mainly affected by warm‐induced drought increased at lower latitudes. Climate warming in winter could decrease but this effect far not enough offset threat hotter drought; (b) there existed trade‐off between fast‐ slow‐growing (drought tolerance) strategies for species, traits. Contrary common conjecture, higher tolerance revealed due their occupation more xeric sites, may also because investment leads less remaining growth; (c) older trees conservative strategy, while large scales, taller showed occupying productive sites; (d) moderate N deposition reduce leading conifers adopt fast‐growing strategy (e.g. Asia), long‐term excessive led North America Synthesis . Our results suggest that coniferous forests water‐limited regions should be vulnerable drought, ‘fast–slow’ key regulating effects various on stability. Moreover, future will severely threaten growth, especially old

There is compelling experimental evidence and theoretical predictions that temporal stability of productivity, i.e., the summation aboveground biomass growth surviving recruitment trees, increases with succession. However, change in productivity natural forests, which may undergo functional diversity loss during canopy transition, remains unclear. Here, we use forest inventory dataset across eastern United States to explore how at multi-spatial scales changes stand age transition. We find decreases local metacommunity scales. Specifically, consistent declines result less asynchronous dynamics among species over succession, consequently weakening stability. Meanwhile, increasing mortality transition from conservative acquisitive succession weaken Successional composition dissimilarity communities cause more communities. decline surpasses rise communities, resulting lower old forests. Our results suggest old-growth forests highlight urgency protecting multiple spatial maintain Forest should increase examining States, authors decreased recommend
