This publication presents an overview of the current interests in tree physiology research within the European tree physiology EUROSILVA network, which has been going on since 1986. The last phase, titled COST Action E 6: EUROSILVA Forest Tree Physiology Research, was accomplished during the period from 1996 to 2000. The scientific discussions in the three working groups (I: Tree growth and development, II: Tree nutrition and water relations, III: Biotic and abiotic interactions in trees) have touched on a diverse collection of topics. The articles in this book have been written by wellknown European and American scientists and focus on basic tree physiology, stress physiology and trees and their environments. The book will provide the reader with information on the EUROSILVA network activities and recent findings. Important future aspects are also discussed.
