Abstract
For assessing the impact of soil temperature on tree growth in remote areas such as the alpine timberline, we introduce a new method for soil temperature manipulations. This new approach is based on roofing of the rooting zone and allows either soil cooling or soil warming without significantly influencing soil water availability and the above ground microclimate.
