Potential of X-ray computed tomography for 3D anatomical analysis and microdensitometrical assessment in wood research with focus on wood modification [PDF]
Studying structure and chemistry of wood and wood-based materials is the backbone of all wood research and many techniques are at hand to do so. A very valuable modality is X-ray computed tomography (CT), able to non-destructively probe the three ...

Effects of sample size in dendroclimatology [PDF]
Uncertainty related to the rate and magnitude of predicted anthropogenic climate change highlights the need to enhance our understanding of past natural fluctuations in the Earth's climate system. This task emphasizes the importance of high-resolution palaeoclimatic records that cover industrial and pre-industrial times.

Structure of Forests and Climatic Response of Trees in “Forest-Steppe” Contact Zone, the Altai Mountains [PDF]
Age structure of forests and radial increment of conifers were studied in the “ forest–steppe” contact zone: Siberian stone pine–Siberian spruce–Siberian larch forest in the lower belt of Severo-Chuisky Range, Siberian larch–Siberian spruce–Siberian ...

Nonannual tree rings in a climate-sensitive Prioria copaifera chronology in the Atrato River, Colombia [PDF]
In temperate climates, tree growth dormancy usually ensures the annual nature of tree rings, but in tropical environments, determination of annual periodicity can be more complex.

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 ...

Dendroclimatological analysis and tree-ring growth prediction of Quercus mongolica
Tree-ring growth of forest trees is closely related to climate and environment changes during growth period, thus it is able to provide precise information on climate changes.
