Contrasting Climate Sensitivity of Pinus cembra Tree-Ring Traits in the Carpathians [PDF]
High-elevation ecosystems are one of the most sensitive to climate change. The analysis of growth and xylem structure of trees from marginal populations, especially the ones growing at the treeline, could provide early-warning signs to better understand ...

Towards ROXAS AI: automatic multi-species ring boundaries segmentation as regression in anatomical images [PDF]
IntroductionQuantitative wood anatomy (QWA) along a time series of tree rings (known as tree-ring anatomy or dendroanatomy) has proven to be very valuable for reconstructing climate and for investigating the responses of trees and shrubs to environmental

Dendroclimatic potential of dendroanatomy in temperature-sensitive Pinus sylvestris
Abstract The most frequently and successfully used tree-ring parameters for the study of temperature variations are ring width and maximum latewood density (MXD). MXD is preferred over ring width due to a more prominent association with temperature.
