Particleboards, medium-density fibreboards or oriented strandboards have become an integral part of the construction sector in the last decades, greatly contributing to the current transition towards a more bio-based circular economy. However, accumulation of synthetic adhesives and down-sizing of wood particles upon repeated disintegration and re-processing are aspects impeding circularity and avoidance of end-of-life waste....

Aim The aim was to decipher Europe‐wide spatio‐temporal patterns of forest growth dynamics and their associations with carbon isotope fractionation processes inferred from tree rings as modulated by climate warming. Location Europe and North Africa (30‒70° N, 10° W‒35° E). Time period 1901‒2003. Major taxa studied Temperate and Euro‐Siberian trees. Methods We characterize changes in the relationship between tree growth and car...
