Radiocarbon and wood anatomy as complementary tools for generating tree-ring records in Bolivia [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 The science of tropical dendrochronology is now emerging in regions where tree-ring dating had previously not been considered possible. Here, we combine wood anatomical microsectioning techniques and radiocarbon analysis to produce the first tree-ring ...

Paleoecology and paleoenvironments of Podocarp trees in the Ameghino Petrified forest (Golfo San Jorge Basin, Patagonia, Argentina): Constraints for Early Paleogene paleoclimate [PDF]
Geologica Acta, 2011 During the Early Paleocene (Danian), Central Patagonia had a warm-temperate climate and was dominated by evergreen coniferous forests. Abundant permineralized conifer woods along with some dicot and palm leaf compressions were found in the Ameghino ...

Direct Observation of the Developing Intra-Annual Density Fluctuation (IADF) for Scots Pine in Semiarid Siberian Belt Forest: External Stress Targets Cambium [PDF]
PlantsLong-term observations of the seasonal growth of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) tree rings in the arid conditions of the Khakass-Minusinsk Basin (southern Siberia) revealed that in 2024, trees had formed a tree ring with a typical intra-annual density ...

Tree‐Ring Anatomy Improves the Reliability of Temperature Reconstructions Using Relict Wood [PDF]
Geophysical Research LettersTree rings are crucial for reconstructing past climates, with maximum latewood density (MXD) as a key metric. However, wood integrity is critical for accurate MXD‐based reconstructions, raising concerns when using potentially degraded relict wood ...

Quantitative wood anatomy of Juniperus excelsa from Lebanon as a potential hydroclimate archive [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant ScienceThe Middle East and North Africa is a hotspot for negative climate change impacts and potentially for conflicts over water resources. To protect future generations from destabilization and marginalization, governments need to consider the impact of ...

Towards ROXAS AI: automatic multi-species ring boundaries segmentation as regression in anatomical images [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant ScienceIntroductionQuantitative wood anatomy (QWA) along a time series of tree rings (known as tree-ring anatomy or dendroanatomy) has proven to be very valuable for reconstructing climate and for investigating the responses of trees and shrubs to environmental
