We study how the lack of snow cover affects tree winter physiology, spring wakening and growth in Hyytiälä SMEAR II station.

Soil temperature stays around zero Celsius degrees under snow cover, but drops to freezing temperatures when the isolating snow cover is absent. The local Oriveden Sanomat Newspaper made an article of our research. The article (in Finnish) can be found from the following link on pages 50-51: https://www.lehtiluukku.fi/lehti/oriveden-sanomat-liitteet/_read/2.3.20…
