Abstract

In this case study, set in south-west Slovenia, the feasibility of reconstructing green water (the combined amount of evaporated and transpired water in trees and available in the soil) was investigated. In a simplified scheme, the amounts of green water were calculated as the difference between...

Abstract

Climatically controlled allocation to reproduction is a key mechanism by which climate influences tree growth and may explain lagged correlations between climate and growth. We used continent-wide datasets of tree-ring chronologies and annual reproductive effort in Fagus sylvatica from 1901 to 2015 ...

Abstract

Machine learning (ML) is a widely unexplored field in dendroclimatology, but it is a powerful tool that might improve the accuracy of climate reconstructions. In this paper, different ML algorithms are compared to climate reconstruction from tree-ring proxies. The algorithms considered are multiple ...

Abstract

In this article the basic of isotope theory of plant tissue is described. The emphasis is on the main factors and processes, which influence the stable carbon isotopic ratios in tree-rings and on the corrections, which have to be applied before further analysis of stable carbon isotope chronology....

Abstract

Debris floods are mass movement events which are usually triggered by intense short duration rainfall events. They often occur on alluvial fans in an alpine environment. Due to their sever geohazard potential they pose a serious threat to infrastructure and human life. To minimize their threat...

AbstractFull Text

Based on previous measurements from 1962 to 2017 on forest research plots located on former slash-and-burn farming areas in the cadastral municipality of Koprivna, the diameter and height increment as well as volume increments of the two main tree species - spruce and larch - were calculated. These ...

Abstract

We compared the results of dendrochronological research of mature spruce trees from the stand canopy with the assessment of radial increment on the study plots in spruce stands on Pokljuka. In the comparison, we use raw measurement data (age trend was not removed) from dendrochronological analysis...

AbstractFull Text

To develop climate models and improve the decision-base for future forestry and agronomy strategies, information on the frequency, intensity and duration of extreme events from the time before instrumentally measured meteorological data should be assessed. The science of acquiring this information...

AbstractFull Text

European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) is an important component of forests in the alpine and continental biogeographical regions of Croatia. This study aimed to (1) analyze the long-term response of beech to climate, (2) identify potentially critical climatic conditions that could negatively affect...

Abstract

Associations of pedunculate oak (Quercus robur L.) radial growth with satellite-based soil moisture (SM) during the intensive tree growth period over a 30-year time span (1980-2010) were analyzed. This study included tree-ring width (TRW) chronologies from 22 stands located in four southeastern...
