Dendroecology in the tropics: a review [PDF]
Trees, 2010 Over the last decade the field of tropical dendroecology has developed rapidly and major achievements have been made. We reviewed the advances in three main themes within the field. First, long chronologies for tropical tree species were constructed which allowed climate reconstructions, revealed sources of climatic variation and clarified climate ...

Climate and Hydrology Shape the Growth and Water Use Efficiency in South Florida's (USA) Pine and Cypress Forests. [PDF]
Ecol EvolIn South Florida, tree growth and water‐use efficiency are significantly influenced by hydrological conditions, with water depth playing a more critical role than overall climate variables. Using dendrochronology and stable carbon isotopes, the study found that Taxodium species grow best during wetter summers, while Pinus elliottii grows most in wetter

Dendrochronology in European Russia in the Early 21st Century: State of the Art
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021 In this review, we have focused on the following key points: (1) living trees in European Russia and their climatic sensitivity. Species suitable for tree-ring analyses, their age limits, spatial distribution of temperature- and drought-sensitive trees ...

Terrestrial laser scanning as a tool for assessing tree growth
iForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry, 2017 Terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) technology is a powerful tool for assessing tree growth based on time series analysis, as it allows a level of scrutiny not achievable using established destructive techniques.
