Long-Term Impacts of Defoliator Outbreaks on Larch Xylem Structure and Tree-Ring Biomass
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020 Defoliator insects are a major disturbance agent in many forests worldwide. During outbreaks, they can strongly reduce photosynthetic carbon uptake and impact tree growth.

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) adapts to local growing conditions to enhance its performance. In response to variations in climatic conditions, beech trees adjust leaf phenology, cambial phenology, and wood formation patterns, which result in ...

Functional Relationships of Wood Anatomical Traits in Norway Spruce
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020 The quantitative assessment of wood anatomical traits offers important insights into those factors that shape tree growth. While it is known that conduit diameter, cell wall thickness, and wood density vary substantially between and within species, the ...

Variability of the tree-rings structure of Gmelin’s larch at northern tree line (peninsula of Taymyr) [PDF]
Сибирский лесной журнал, 2017 The study of tree-ring cell structure changes as the result of tree adaptation to varying environmental conditions becomes increasingly important to predict future vegetation shifts under projected climate changes.

Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2023 Intra-annual density fluctuation (IADF) refers to anatomical changes in the tree ring caused by a sudden change in wood density triggered by a combination of climate variations and various biotic and abiotic influences. To reveal the occurrence of IADFs,

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2022 Tree rings form the backbone of high-resolution palaeoclimatology and represent one of the most frequently used proxy to reconstruct climate variability of the Common Era. In the European Alps, reconstructions were often based on tree-ring width (TRW) and maximum latewood density (MXD) series, with a focus on European larch.

Studying global change through investigation of the plastic responses of xylem anatomy in tree rings [PDF]
New Phytologist, 2009 SummaryVariability in xylem anatomy is of interest to plant scientists because of the role water transport plays in plant performance and survival. Insights into plant adjustments to changing environmental conditions have mainly been obtained through structural and functional comparative studies between taxa or within taxa on contrasting sites or along

Wood anatomy and tree-ring stable isotopes indicate a recent decline in water-use efficiency in the desert tree Moringa peregrina [PDF]
International Journal of Biometeorology, 2021 The ability of desert plants to adapt to future climate changes and maximize their water-use efficiency will determine their survival. This study uses wood anatomy and δ13C and δ18O isotope analyses to investigate how Moringa peregrina trees in the Egyptian desert have responded to the environment over the last 10 years.
