Abstract

The aim of the study was to evaluate the sensitivity of silver fir (Abies alba Mill.) from the Rudnik Forest District on the selected meteorological elements and to develop a chronology of local tree-ring width and the annual sensitivity. Based on the analysis, the site chronology of silver fir was ...

Abstract

Painted chests are an important part of museum collections of folk art in the Alpine region. At the Gorenjska Museum in Kranj, we examined over 30 chests mostly made of Norway spruce (Picea abies) and selected 18 of them for dendrochronological analysis. We took high resolution images of the radial ...

Abstract

Tree-growth-climate relationships are usually assumed to have a stationary character, i.e., continuous and/or time-independent, along the lifetime of the trees. The fact that non-stationarity, i.e., discontinuous and/or time-variable, is more likely to actually be their general rule, has been often ...

Abstract

European forests are undergoing an important transition due to the current climate change, as monocultures are being gradually replaced by mixed forests. Understanding tree growth in mixed forests under a changing climate is challenging because of tree species' adaptation and long-term forest...

Abstract

Old-growth forests have an important role in maintaining animal and plant diversity, are important carbon (C) reservoirs and are privileged sites to study long-term plant physiological responses, long-term forest dynamics and climate change impact on forest ecosystems. Several studies have...

Abstract

The important role that forests play in the global carbon cycle has led to the implementation of management practices to enhance long-term carbon storage in forests. Obtaining information about how forest biomass varies at different successional stages is therefore essential. In this study, we...

Abstract

The prehistoric salt mine of Hallstatt together with its burial ground is one of the most prominent archaeological sites in the world, and has given its name to the "Hallstatt period", an epoch of European prehistory (800 to 400 BCE). Due to the perfect conservation in rock salt a high number of...

Abstract

Background: Equatorward, rear-edge tree populations are natural monitors to estimate species vulnerability to climate change. According to biogeographical theory, exposition to drought events increases with increasing aridity towards the equator and the growth of southern tree populations will be...

Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the possibility of using the dendrochronological method in drought prediction in eastern Bosnia. As an indicator of drought, the standardized precipitation index (SPI) was used. In the wider area of Rogatica (eastern Bosnia), 11 core samples from trees were...

AbstractFull Text

The Macedonain pine (Pinus peuce Griseb.) is one of the main species in the subalpine forests on the Balkan Peninsula. Given the forecasted increase of temperatures in the next decades there are worries about the health status and distribution of many species, including the currently dominant...
