Irrigation in Mediterranean urban areas: a good strategy to face the ongoing climate change impacts on urban cedar trees? - Urban Ecosystems
Irrigated trees are known to develop large aboveground structures that can be detrimental during dry spells, and therefore irrigated trees are expected to perform worse than non-irrigated ones under c...
