Abstract

A large number of tree species, especially of conifers growing in the Himalaya and a few broad-leaved taxa in the peninsular region, have been dendrochronologically analyzed in India. This paper is a review providing information as regards the present status and future prospects of tree-ring...

Abstract

Fourteen tree-ring width chronologies were developed along three altitudinal gradients for three mountain ranges in arid north central China. The chronology statistics, combined with results of a rotated principle component analysis (RPCA), suggest that physiological gradients play a more important ...

Abstract

Five teak [Tectona grandis] trees in northern Thailand were selected for the study of vessels in terms of dendroclimatology. The tree rings were divided into earlywood and latewood, and four parameters (average vessel area, average vessel diameter, average conductive area, and vessel density) were...

Abstract

The seasonal dynamics of cambial activity of Chinese pine (Pinus tabulaeformis Carr.) was studied at the northern limit of its natural distribution in a semi-arid grassland ecosystem in North China. We collected micro-cores from five even-aged trees at weekly intervals from April 15 to September...

Abstract

Tree-ring samples of different conifer species in various ecological settings from subtropical to temperate regions of the Eastern Himalayan region were evaluated for their potential for dendroclimatic reconstructions. Most of these tree species have cross-datable growth rings except Taxus baccata...

Abstract

In harsh and treeless environments, shrubs constitute the dominant growth form of woody plants, thus offering the opportunity to extend dendrochronological networks beyond the uppermost and northernmost distribution limits of trees. However, shrub-based dendrochronology has so far resulted in only...

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to date, using tree rings, wooden coffins which were excavated from graves located in Naeheung-dong, Gunsan city, in the western coastal area of South Korea. The species of wood used for the coffins was identified to belong to the diploxylon group of the genus Pinus,...

Abstract

The pinning method is one of the various approaches to trace the intra-annual cambium dynamics of trees along a highly resolved time axis. After a brief retrospect on preceding developmental steps, the pinning of trees and the measurement of the radial increments, formed within distinct intervals,...
