Key message Climate sensitivity of Pinus sylvestris has changed in minimum density while maximum density remains mostly stable, suggesting the use of additional density parameters could help detect response changes. Abstract As one of Eurasia's most widely distributed conifer species, Pinus sylvestris L. is frequently used in dendroclimatological reconstructions based on tree-ring width (TRW) and maximum latewood density (MXD)...
Climate signal age effects in Pinus uncinata tree-ring density data from the Spanish PyreneesNARA Subscribed
Key message The temperature sensitivity of maximum latewood density measurements in pine trees from a high-elevation site in the Spanish Pyrenees increases with tree age. Detrending modulates the intensity of the effect. Abstract Tree-rings are the prime archive for high-resolution climate information over the past two millennia. However, the accuracy of annually resolved reconstructions from tree-rings can be constrained by w...
Taxus tree-ring chronologies from southern England reveal western European hydroclimate changes over the past three centuriesNARA Subscribed
Heatwaves and summer droughts across Europe are likely to intensify under anthropogenic global warming thereby affecting ecological and societal systems. To place modern trends and extremes in the context of past natural variability, annually resolved and absolutely dated climate reconstructions are needed. Here, we present a network of 153 yew ( Taxus baccata L.) tree-ring width (TRW) series from 22 sites in southern England...
Contrasting Future Growth of Norway Spruce and Scots Pine Forests Under Warming ClimateNARA Subscribed
Forests are essential to climate change mitigation through carbon sequestration, transpiration, and turnover. However, the quantification of climate change impacts on forest growth is uncertain and even contradictory in some regions, which is the result of spatially constrained studies. Here, we use an unprecedented network of 1.5 million tree growth records from 493 Picea abies and Pinus sylvestris stands across Europe to pre...
The summer precipitation response of latewood tree‐ring chronologies in the southwestern United StatesNARA Subscribed
Latewood width tree‐ring chronologies from arid‐site conifers in the southwestern United States are correlated with precipitation during portions of the summer monsoon season. The onset date and length of the monsoon season varies across the region, and these regional differences in summer rainfall climatology may impact the strength and timing of the warm season precipitation response of latewood chronologies. The optimal lat...
