Sampling bias overestimates climate change impacts on forest growth in the southwestern United States

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Sampling strategies may bias tree-ring datasets to not accurately represent the regional response to climate change. Here, Klesse et al. use a new representative dataset to show that the International Tree-Ring Data Bank in the U.S.

Local variance of atmospheric 14C concentrations around Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant from 2010 to 2012 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Radiocarbon (14C) has been measured in single tree ring samples collected from the southwest of the Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant. Our data indicate south-westwards dispersion of radiocarbon and the highest 14C activity observed so far in the ...

Arctic tree rings as recorders of variations in light availability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Annual growth ring variations in Arctic trees are often used to reconstruct surface temperature. In general, however, the growth of Arctic vegetation is limited both by temperature and light availability, suggesting that variations in atmospheric ...

21st Century Warming, Site Aspect, and Reversal of Age-Related Growth Decline in Shortleaf Pine (Pinus echinata) in North Carolina, USA

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2023
We examined the influence of significant 21st century warming on the radial growth patterns of shortleaf pine growing on adjacent north/northeast- and south/southwest-facing slopes (hereafter NS and SS), in the Uwharrie Mountains of North Carolina, USA ...

Using longitudinal survival probabilities to test field vigour estimates in sugar maple (Acer saccharum Marsh.) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Tree mortality is a major force driving forest dynamics. To foresters, however, tree mortality is often considered a loss in productivity. To reduce tree mortality, silvicultural systems, such as selection cuts, aim at removing trees that are more likely

Radial Growth Responses of Four Southeastern USA Pine Species to Summertime Precipitation Event Types and Intense Rainfall Events

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2022
Previous dendroclimatic studies have examined the relationship between total precipitation amounts and tree radial growth in the southeastern USA, yet recent studies indicate that specific precipitation event types and rainfall intensities influence ...

Recent enhanced high-summer North Atlantic Jet variability emerges from three-century context

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Long-term records of jet stream variability are needed to place recent mid-latitude extreme weather events into a historical context. Here, using tree-ring records from Europe, the authors reconstruct variability in the latitudinal position of the high ...

Robust Tree-Ring Detection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The study of tree-rings is a common task in dendrology. Usually the rings deliver information about the age of the tree, historic climate conditions and forest densities. Many different techniques exist to perform the tree-ring detection, but they commonly are semi-automatic.

Dendrochronology and Isotope Chronology of Juglans neotropica and Its Response to El Niño-Related Rainfall Events in Tropical Highlands of Piura, Northern Peru

open access: yesPlants
Tropical trees represent an important potential archive of climate and ecological information, but their dendrochronology based on conventional techniques has been challenging.
