ABSTRACTForest ABSTRACT Forest ecosystems play all important role in water cycle and carbon balance Their performance depends on various environmental conditions．Understanding of photosynthesis，plant water use of forest tree species and their responses to environmental variables is required to predict how forest ecosystems respond to climate variability and change．In this study，we investigated photosynthesis and water use behaviors for four selected common native tree species：Pinus massoniana of a conifer species，Cinnamomum camphora and Osmanthus fragrans of evergreen broadleaf species，Liquidambar formosana of a deciduous broadleaf species Severaleco-hydrological variables were measured on various tree species over three years using LI一6400XT,heat-pulse sap flow sensors，and thermocouple stem psychrometers．The measurements of microclimatic variables(solar radiation，rainfall， air temperature，relative humidity and wind speed)were also conducted．The aims of this study were to investigate variation of photosynthesis，plant water use of forest tree species and their responses to different environmental conditions(including drought stress)．The mainly results ale summarized as follows： (1)Overall，C camphora is more sensitive to a change of environmental conditions(e．g．，vapor pressure deficit and root zone water potential)in a drought than 0．fragrans．D fragrans appears to be more tolerance to drought，while C camphora develops an effective survival mechanism in drought via leaf shedding and dieback of shoots．During the in—drought period，transpiration rate(Ec)of the two species declined with an enhanced VPD and reduced stem water potential．Especially when VPD1．75 kPa，both Ec of the two species showed a significant reduction．But Ec of C camphora declined dramatically in the drought．C camphora and D fragrans both appear to be anisohydric，but to a different degree in response to the drought (2)At the leaf scale，net photosynthetic rate(Pn)，transpiration rate(Tr)and leaf stomatal c
