An evaluation of the use of dendrochemical analyses in environmental monitoring

open access: yes, 1997
Dendrochemical techniques have been used to monitor historical changes in soil and atmospheric chemistry since the early 1970s. The development of dendrochemistry in environmental monitoring was prompted by early studies which reported that changes in ...

Do tree rings record changes in soil fertility? Results from a Quercus petraea fertilization trial

open access: yes, 2020
International audienceThrough the variations in their dimension, density, anatomy or isotopes composition, tree rings have provided invaluable proxies to evaluate past changes in the environment. Whereas long-term records of changes in soil fertility are

Influence of production variables and starting material on charcoal stable isotopic and molecular characteristics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We present a systematic study on the effect of starting species, gas composition, temperature, particle size and duration of heating upon the molecular and stable isotope composition of high density (mangrove) and low density (pine) wood.

Phytoforensic-Dendrochemistry using NAA Techniques

open access: yes, 2012
Plants and trees can tell us the history of a geographic area through their intake from their environment. There have been significant developments in techniques to identify the history of contaminants in plant materials to map out potential pollutant ...

Effects of Harvesting on Nutrient Cycling, Red Spruce Radial Growth, and Dendrochemistry 30 Years after Harvesting in Northern Maine, USA

open access: yes, 2006
The objective of this retrospective study was to quantify the long-term effects of tree harvesting intensity on red spruce-flats in northern Maine. Six stands harvested approximately 30 years ago with volume removals of 30, 50, and 80 percent and two ...

The use of tree-rings and foliage as an archive of volcanogenic cation deposition

open access: yes, 2007
Tree cores (Pinus nigra ssp. laricio) and leaves (Castanea sativa) from the flanks of Mount Etna, Sicily were analysed by ICP-MS to investigate whether volcanogenic cations within plant material provide an archive of a volcano's temporal and spatial ...
