Tree-rings growth is a data bank that, if correctly interpreted in detail, can help elucidate climatic events of the past. To make more assertive interpretations it is necessary to use information from weather stations near the study sites. The objective of the present study was to determine if...

The objective of this investigation was to construct the chronology of the growth rings of the Jacaranda copaia (Achihua) species, to analyze with the most severe events of the El Niño phenomenon. For this, 10 J. copaia trees were collected from a relict forest in the Madre de Dios region of Peru....

The rates of soil lost caused by water erosion have been estimated using the dendrochronology method. This method has been applied to forest masses of Pinus halepensis which are located at the southeast of the Community of Madrid. The erosion rates found for the different slopes that have been...

A dendroclimatic reconstruction is carried out using the data from nine chronologies of the Fagus sylvatica taxon spread out in Polaciones, a valley of the central Cantabrian Mountains. The paper is based on a reliable and replicable statistical relationship between the climatic reference data of...

Introduction: Dendrochronological studies in Mexico have been mainly based on conifers, while hardwood species have been little studied. This has been the case of the genus Quercus, which has a high taxonomic diversity in the country but has not been previously studied for dendrochronological...

Introduction: Dendroclimatic reconstructions in water-yield basins lacking hydroclimatic data, such as the Rio Sabinas is important to analyze its interannual and multiannual climatic variability. One of the species useful for this purpose is the Montezuma baldcypress (Taxodium mucronatum Ten.), a...

Since the mid-twentieth century, a conflict has developed on a national scale between the provinces of La Pampa and Mendoza (Argentina), producing a so-called decrease in the amount of water from the Atuel river. The main objective of the study is to try to reconstruct the hydrological conditions...

The hydroclimatic reconstruction is relevant to understand how a forest watershed works and take decisions about its management. In this study the precipitation and streamflow on Piaxtla river watershed was reconstructed, using tree-ring width index values from Pseudostuga menziesii. From seven...

This study analyzed the climatic response, dendrochronological potential, and influence of oceanic-atmospheric phenomena in tree-rings of Pinus hartwegii Lindl. in 3 sites in the Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt. From 36 to 40 growth nuclei per site were sampled. The samples were analyzed and dated...

Dendrochronology is a useful tool for analyzing the relationships between climate and trees. However, there are few studies in Mexico that have examined details of how the sensibility of radial growth in Pinus cooperi can vary according to the local climate. Understanding the implications of each...
