Reconstructing Soil Recovery from Acid Rain in Beech (<i>Fagus sylvatica</i>) Stands of the Vienna Woods as Indicated by Removal of Stemflow and Dendrochemistry. [PDF]
Water Air Soil Pollut, 2019 Our goal was to reconstruct soil recovery from Acid Rain based upon removal of stemflow at beech (Fagus sylvatica) stands of known historic and recent soil status. Fourteen beech stands in the Vienna Woods were selected in 1984 and again in 2012 to study changes in soil and foliar chemistry over time.

Comparison between δ13C of α-cellulose and bulk wood in the mangrove tree Rhizophora mucronata: Implications for dendrochemistry [PDF]
Chemical Geology, 2005 Stable carbon isotope analysis of tree rings has become a widely used proxy in environmental and palaeoclimatological studies. In those studies, a-cellulose has often been the preferred material because of its singular composition and its immobility in wood.

Reconstruction of soil pH by dendrochemistry of Masson pine at two forested sites in the Pearl River Delta, South China [PDF]
Annals of Forest Science, 2008 • Soil acidification is a global concern. Base cation (Ca, Mg, Mn and Al) concentrations, as well as their molar ratios, were measured in tree rings of Masson pines (Pinus massoniana L.) from Dinghushan and Xiqiaoshan to reconstruct the historical changes in soil acidification in the Pearl River Delta, south China.

Tropical dendrochemistry: A novel approach to estimate age and growth from ringless trees
Geophysical Research Letters, 2006 Although tropical forests play an active role in the global carbon cycle and climate, their growth history remains poorly characterized compared to other ecosystems on the planet. Trees are prime candidates for the extraction of paleoclimate archives as they can be probed sub‐annually, are widely distributed and can live for over 1400 years [Chambers ...

The use of dendrochemistry to reveal pollution history
, 2013 Tree rings provide a record of environmental change within the biological requirements of tree survival. Dendrochemistry has successfully applied several analytical techniques for solidstate analysis (e.g., energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence (EDXRF), particle-induced X-ray emission), analysis of wood extracts or digests (e.g., inductively coupled ...

Geochronometria, 2015 Study of soils in St. John’s, Canada showed elevated Pb levels representing a potential ex-posure risk for young children. Old trees growing in the city present a potential annually-resolved record of Pb levels over past centuries that provides important temporal and spatial dimensions to Pb exposure risk assessment.
