Competitive interactions under current climate allow temperate tree species to grow and survive in boreal mixedwood forest

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2023, Issue 5, May 2023., 2023
With climate change, climatic optima are shifting poleward more rapidly than tree migration processes, resulting in a mismatch between species distributions and bioclimatic envelopes. Temperate hardwood tree species may take advantage of the release of climate constraints and forest management to migrate into the boreal forest.

Paleohydrological context for recent floods and droughts in the Fraser River Basin, British Columbia, Canada

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2021
The recent intensification of floods and droughts in the Fraser River Basin (FRB) of British Columbia has had profound cultural, ecological, and economic impacts that are expected to be exacerbated further by anthropogenic climate change.

Using machine learning on tree‐ring data to determine the geographical provenance of historical construction timbers

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2023., 2023
Abstract Dendroclimatology offers the unique opportunity to reconstruct past climate at annual resolution and wood from historical buildings can be used to extend such information back in time up to several millennia. However, the varying and often unclear origin of timbers affects the climate sensitivity of individual tree‐ring samples.

Juniper from Ethiopia contains a large-scale precipitation signal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Most semiarid regions are facing an increasing scarcity of woody vegetation due mainly to anthropogenic deforestation aggravated by climate changes. However, there is insufficient information to reconstruct past changes in climate and to evaluate the ...

Frequencies of Multivariate Air Masses Drive Tree Growth

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 128, Issue 3, March 2023., 2023
Abstract Midlatitude surface meteorological conditions are embedded within—and affected by—synoptic‐scale systems, including the movement and persistence of air masses (AMs). Changes in AM frequencies (number of daily occurrences) over the past several decades could have large effects on ecosystems: each organism is exposed to the synergistic effects ...

Dendrochronological Potential of Drought-Sensitive Tree Stands in Armenia for the Hydroclimate Reconstruction of the Lesser Caucasus

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2021
Existing high-resolution reconstructions of hydroclimate variability in the Caucasus are lacking tree-ring data from Armenian Plateau, the most continental part of the region.

In Memoriam: Keith R. Briffa, 1952–2017 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Keith R. Briffa was one of the most influential palaeoclimatologists of the last 30 years. His primary research interests lay in Late-Holocene climate change with a geographical emphasis on northern Eurasia.

Spatio‐Temporal Variations in Carbon Isotope Discrimination Predicted by the JULES Land Surface Model

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 127, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Stable carbon isotopes in plants can help evaluate and improve the representation of carbon and water cycles in land‐surface models, increasing confidence in projections of vegetation response to climate change. Here, we evaluated the predictive skills of the Joint UK Land Environmental Simulator (JULES) to capture spatio‐temporal variations ...

Droughts, Pluvials, and Wet Season Timing Across the Chao Phraya River Basin: A 254‐Year Monthly Reconstruction From Tree Ring Widths and δ18O

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 49, Issue 17, 16 September 2022., 2022
Abstract Water system operations require subannual streamflow data—e.g., monthly or weekly—that are not readily achievable with conventional streamflow reconstructions from annual tree rings. This mismatch is particularly relevant to highly seasonal rivers such as Thailand's Chao Phraya. Here, we combine tree ring width and stable oxygen isotope ratios
