Agricultural and Forest Meteorology is an international journal for the publication of original articles and reviews on the inter-relationship between meteorology and the fields of plant, animal and soil sciences, ecology, and biogeochemistry The audience of the journal is meteorologists, soil scientists, agricultural hydrologists and agronomists. Abstracts are available online for free from 1996 onwards via Elsevier Science. Full-text is available to institutional and personal subscribers of ScienceDirect.
Douglas-fir trees will likely experience more stress from drier air as the climate changes than they will from less rain, computer modeling by Oregon State University scientists shows.
