Dendroclimatology using tropical broad-leaved tree species - a review
Global change has led to the warming of the atmosphere and oceans, the diminishment of snow and ice, while the sea level is rising. These changes have widespread impacts on human and natural systems on all continents and across the oceans.

Dendroclimatic Investigations of Pinus Sylvestris L. on Keretsky Archipelago Islands, the White Sea [PDF]
The radial growth dynamics of Pinus sylvestris from different habitats of Keretsky archipelago, the White Sea, was analyzed. Two tree-ring chronologies for dry pine forest and the third one for swamp habitat were built.

Conifers growing in high‐elevation alpine environments in the mountains of Southern California, USA, are highly responsive to atmospheric river (AR) events, which typically produce heavy precipitation over 1–3 days. However, it is the frequency of the AR events, not their magnitude nor annual precipitation totals, that most affects the radial growth of

Exorcizing Divergence in Tree‐Ring Density Along the Rocky Mountains
Abstract Briffa et al. (1998), https://doi.org/10.1038/35596 published a seminal paper on the reduced sensitivity of annual tree growth to temperature across Northern Hemisphere treeline stands. By averaging tree‐ring chronologies to sub‐continental means, they found decade‐long trends in maximum latewood density (MXD) progressively diverging from ...

Abstract Tree‐ring width (RW) records primarily capture low‐frequency temperature variability, yet resolving high‐frequency signals is critical for testing climate models and contextualizing modern extremes. Blue rings (BRs)—bands of unlignified cells revealed by micro‐anatomical staining—capture short‐lived cooling events.

Abstract Climate change, expanding human ignitions, and increased fuels from fire exclusion are driving increases in area burned and fire severity in dry conifer forests of the western United States. Increasing area burned is occurring against the backdrop of a large fire deficit caused by over a century of fire exclusion.

Synoptic dendroclimatology: a process-based approach for linking tree-ring information to atmospheric circulation over the Pacific and western North America [abstract] [PDF]
EXTRACT (SEE PDF FOR FULL ABSTRACT): Synoptic dendroclimatology uses dated tree rings to study and reconstruct climate from the viewpoint of the climate's weather components and their relationship to atmospheric circulation.

Progress in isotope dendroclimatology
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 ...

Abstract Introduction Mining activities can lead to the formation of degraded, barren, or metal‐contaminated ecosystems. Resource‐poor ecosystems such as rocky outcrops are more sensitive to mining degradation, and their natural regeneration can be challenging due to soil erosion, lack of resources or seeds, and soil acidification.
