Geographic transfers over long distances are accompanied by changes in climatic changes. As climatic warming is expected during the coming decades, series of transfers to warmer climate regimes are most relevant. The results show that both Picea abies and Pinus sylvestris are able to adapt to climatic warming. The changes are mainly physiological, but some genetical screening is plausible. At the present stage the relationships between temperature and light factor remain open
