The study aims for the exploration of dendroclimatological history from Himalayan fir (Abies pindrow Royle ex D. Don) growing in the mid elevation zone of Pakistan. Temperature and precipitation are the main limiting factors for tree growth in the region, of which precipitation dominates as the...

Global change has led to the warming of the atmosphere and oceans, the diminishment of snow and ice, while the sea level is rising. These changes have widespread impacts on human and natural systems on all continents and across the oceans. In tropical regions, ecosystems and socio-economic cultures ...

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....

This paper describes attempts to develop tree-ring chronologies from New Zealand matai (Prumnopitys taxifolia) and miro (Prumnopitys ferruginea). These tree species have been recovered from Māori archaeological contexts, including as objects such as canoes and palisade posts. Dendrochronology...

Dendrochronology, the study of tree-rings to help understand events of the past, is a growing body of research that has become well-established in scientific literature within the last century. Oklahoma is a distinct resource to dendrochronology as it exists at the eastern deciduous forest sand...

Climate models for North Patagonia in Argentina project dryer conditions, due to a decrease in mean precipitation combined with an increase in mean temperatures. The temperate mixed Nothofagus forest, which exists along a steep precipitation gradient, could be directly impacted. For this study, we...

Tropical and subtropical forests cover only 7% of the Earth's land surface. Yet, they host nearly half of global tree density with a high species number (~40,000 species), store up to 25% of global terrestrial carbon and represent one-third of net primary productivity on Earth. Over the last four...

Observational, correlative approaches are one of the backbones of dendrochronology. For instance, climate-growth relationships are usually quantified by calculating Pearson correlations. However, the ability to detect these relationships and the probability of declaring significant correlations by...

Nectandra is one of the most representative genera of Lauraceae in the subtropical Atlantic Forest of Brazil. The objective of this work was to study the dendrochronological potential of Nectandra oppositifolia Nees and Mart. from two sites in Santa Catarina State in southern Brazil. A tree-ring...
