Climatic Inferences from Dendroecological Reconstructions

2010
Tree rings have long been employed by ecologists to study the local-scale dynamics of forest stands and woodlands, but only recently have network approaches been applied to evaluate regional and broader-scale processes. As with dendroclimatic data (e.g., ring-width and ring-density chronologies), climatic drivers become much more evident in ...

A Dendroecological Fire History for Central Corsica/France

Tree-Ring Research, 2020
Forest fires are an important factor shaping Mediterranean ecosystems and determine the distribution of different species. Information about past forest fires can be obtained with pyrodendroecology. Here, we present a fire history for three sites in the mountain forest belt on the island of Corsica in the Mediterranean Basin.

Dendroecological Applications to Coarse Woody Debris Dynamics

2017
Coarse woody debris plays a crucial role in forest ecosystems. The current amount of woody debris on a given site represents a balance between additions (tree mortality) and depletions (wood decomposition, combustion, transport). Understanding woody debris dynamics has recently gained much attention, primarily because of the need to improve forest ...

Dendroecological analyses for olive cultivar characterization

2023
Due to global warming, a significant increase in frequency and severity of drought episodes is predicted in the Mediterranean Region. Olive (Olea europaea L.) is a relatively drought-tolerant tree species cultivated in Mediterranean region. However, prolonged hot and dry summer can induce hydraulic stress, leading to fruit yield reduction.

The DendroEcological Network Version 1.0 - Technical Report

2019
The DendroEcological Network (DEN; https://www.uvm.edu/femc/dendro) is an open-source repository of high quality dendrochronological and associated ecological data. The DEN was launched in 2018 with the goal of providing a database and online infrastructure to archive these data, and make those data easy to find, explore, and aggregate across disparate

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 ...

The Dendroecology of Red Spruce Decline

1992
In the previous chapter, the current status of red spruce and spruce-fir forests was critically evaluated using a variety of forest survey data. The limited time covered by these data made any determination of trend in forest condition difficult and tenuous.

Dendroecology: Lessons Learned and Future Frontiers

2017
Over the past four decades dendroecology has been instrumental in shaping contemporary understanding of how forests around the world change over time. Dendroecological research has provided important new insights into the functioning of temperate, boreal, and tropical forests at sub-annual, annual, decadal, and centennial time scales.

Dendroecological Potential of Juniperus deppeana in Northern Mexico

2020
The species Juniperus deppeana is widely distributed throughout the Sierra Madre Occidental, northern Mexico, and no studies have been conducted to determine its dendroclimatic potential. This study in intended to answer the following questions. Is it possible to date annual growth of J. deppeana and develop tree-ring series? What is the most important
