Abstract

Charcoal piles have become a frequent subject of research in recent years as a better understanding of past human activities in forests is sought. The age of charcoal piles is usually determined by radiocarbon dating; dendrochronology is rarely used because of the small size of preserved charcoal...

Abstract

Using dendroclimatological techniques this study investigates whether inner city tree-ring width (TRW) chronologies from eight tree species (ash, beech, fir, larch, lime, sessile and pedunculate oak, and pine) are suitable to examine the urban heat island of Berlin, Germany. Climate-growth...

Abstract

The main objective of the study was to evaluate long-term growth response of spruce to climatic factors using the set of 3,062 tree-ring series collected in 2013-2019 from the entire territory of the Czech Republic. Multivariate analysis of dendrochronological data and available environmental...

Abstract

Long-term changes in climate substantially affect the tree growth and species distribution in Europe. In the presented study, the radial growth of Fagus sylvatica (L.) and Picea abies ((L.) Karst.) has been studied along an altitudinal gradient covering six vegetation formations characteristic for...

Abstract

The biochemical effects of trees may significantly influence local pedogenesis as well as pedocomplexity, biodiversity and forest dynamics on both stand and landscape scales. One such effect is the decay of tree trunks, which is driven by organisms, and especially by the microbiome. Decomposition...

Abstract

The chronological aspects of landslide research are of great interest regarding the hazard assessment of landslide triggers. Dendrogeomorphic methods provide a good ratio of chronology length and dating resolution. An alternative to the standard dendrogeomorphic approaches used in landslide...

Abstract

Despite improvements of dendrochronological techniques in many forest ecosystems, studies describing the growth responses of trees following disturbance events including comprehensive data on factors and processes behind tree-growth release are rare, especially for European temperate forests,...

Abstract

In general, trees growing at or near their limit of distribution are more sensitive to climate than those growing at their ecological core. Here we examined the growth-climate relationship of European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) close to its northern distribution limit in southern Sweden. Tree-ring...

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

Background and aims: The changing soils is a never-ending process moderated by numerous biotic and abiotic factors. Among these factors, trees may play a critical role in forested landscapes by having a large imprint on soil texture and chemical properties. During their evolution, soils can follow...
