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...

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...

Stable hydrogen isotope ratios of lignin methoxyl groups (δ2HLM) of wood have been shown to reflect climate-sensitive δ2H values of precipitation (δ2Hprecip). However, a detailed calibration study between high-resolution δ2HLM and δ2Hprecip data has not been performed yet. Here, we present annually ...

The impact of globally changing climate conditions on monodominant tree-line beech forests in the Balkan Mts., Bulgaria, was studied through the application of the dendrochronological method. Nineteen European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) cross-section stem discs from an elevation of 1550 m a. s. l....

Compression wood formation and tree ring eccentricity of coniferous trees have often been used to date past geomorphic events because of their well-defined tree ring boundaries and visible reaction wood. On the other hand, complex analysis of the ability of tree rings and anatomy of broadleaved...

The knowledge of past landslide movement chronology is crucial for estimating future landslide development or for detailed analysis of triggers. A very precise approach to landslide history detection is based on tree ring analysis (dendrogeomorphology). The detection of landslide movements is based ...

Stable oxygen isotope dendrochronology is an effective precision-dating method for fast grown, invariant (complacent) tree-rings and for trees growing in moist, temperate climatic regions where growth may not be strongly controlled by climate. The method works because trees preserve a strong common ...

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...

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...

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...
