AbstractFull Text

The dendrochronological study of a mixed forest of Macedonian pine (Pinus peuce Griseb.) and Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.) in the Tsarichina forest reserve, Balkan range Mountains. Frost rings were found in Macedonian pine tree-rings. Light rings have been found in Norway spruce rings....

Abstract

Compression wood (CW) is a common tissue present in the trunk, branches and roots of mechanically stressed coniferous trees. Its main role is to increase the mechanical strength and regain the vertical orientation of a leaning stem. Compression wood is thought to influence the climate signal in...

Abstract

Annually resolved and absolutely dated Maximum Latewood Density (MXD) and Blue Intensity (BI) measurements are frequently used for reconstructing summer temperature variability over the last centuries to millennia. A direct comparison of the outcome of both methods using similar material is needed...

Abstract

Fennoscandia is one of the most prominent regions in the world for dendroclimatological research. Yet, millennium-long tree-ring chronologies in this region have mainly been developed from Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.). To explore the possibility of building long-term chronologies using other...

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

In recent years, there has been an intense desiccation of spruce forests in the Ukrainian Carpathians, where European spruce is the main forest-forming species. Over the recent years, desiccation has spread to the spruce forest stands which grow in the Carpathians at the height of over 1,000 m...

AbstractFull Text

We examined valuable log assortments of Norway spruce (Picea abies) from a traditional auction in Slovenia where spruce growth on many sites is affected by climate change. From 6620 logs, we selected 817 that obtained the highest prices. Factors including log dimensions and geometry, tree-ring...

Abstract

Dendrogeomorphic dating is an effective tool for the assessment of past landslide activity. However, some complex landslide areas include zones of accumulated boulders that can represent geotopes with deteriorated conditions for the stable anchoring of tree roots. Under such conditions, wind gusts...

Abstract

The dendrogeomorphic dating of past landslides can be limited by the speed or magnitude of movements, as they are sometimes too small to induce growth responses in trees standing on unstable slopes. As a result, movements of low magnitude are generally assumed to remain undetectable in standard...

AbstractFull Text

Tree-ring-width chronologies for 33 samples of Picea abies (L.) Karst. were developed, and a relationship between tree growth and hydrometeorological features was established and analyzed. Precipitation, temperature, and discharge records were extrapolated to understand past climate trends to...
