Dendroclimatology

2018
Dendroclimatologists can reconstruct climate records further into the past than written records, by examining tree rings. Students "reverse-engineer" this process by considering growth rates of a tree species in response to various...

Progress in isotope dendroclimatology

Chemical Geology, 2008
Numerous studies have demonstrated the potential of stableisotopes in tree rings for quantitative terrestrial palaeoclimaticreconstruction (Ramesh et al., 1986; Heaton, 1999; Switsur andWaterhouse, 1998; McCarroll and Loader, 2004, 2005), but the earlywidespread application of isotope dendroclimatology has been hin-dered by laborious technical ...

Arctic aerosols and the ‘Divergence Problem’ in dendroclimatology

Dendrochronologia, 2021
Considering the importance and complexity of natural (e.g., volcanic eruptions and wildfires) and anthropogenic (e.g., mining, oil and shipping industries) aerosol emissions to Arctic warming is particularly timely given the recent temperature extremes recorded at high-northern latitudes (Cohen et al., 2020; Overland and Wang, 2021).

Dendroclimatology and Dendroecology

Quaternary Research, 1971
Dendrochronology is the science of dating annual growth layers (rings) in woody plants. Two related subdisciplines are dendroclimatology and dendroecology. The former uses the information in dated rings to study problems of present and past climates, while the latter deals with changes in the local environment rather than regional climate.Successful ...

Quantifying uncertainty in isotope dendroclimatology

The Holocene, 2013
To maximise the potential of the tree-ring isotopic signal for palaeoclimate research it is essential to understand and characterise the natural variability between individual trees. This study explores the nature of inter-tree isotopic variability and evaluates the implications for developing robust palaeoclimate reconstructions.

Dendroclimatology and wheat production in Algeria

Journal of Arid Environments, 2016
Abstract Drought is one of the main natural factors in declining tree-ring growth and the production of agricultural crops in Algeria. This paper addresses the variability of growing conditions for wheat in Algeria with climatic data and a tree-ring reconstruction of January–June precipitation from ten Pinus halepensis tree-ring chronologies.

Dendroclimatological Studies at the Northern Timberline

1984
Analysing the growth pattern of pine trees near the northern timberline in Swedish Lapland a close relationship between measured temperatures in July was established. On the basis of this relationship the July temperature is reconstructed back to A.D. 1680.

Research Strategies in Dendroecology and Dendroclimatology in Mountain Environments

Climatic Change, 1997
Tree-ring series from living trees near the timberline or timbers buried in the surroundings are exceptionally valuable both for climate reconstruction and investigations of the consequences of climate change to ecosystems. This paper is a critical assessment of the past and potential contributions of dendroecology and dendroclimatology in mountain ...
