A simple method for cross-dating increment cores from living trees
TLDR
For many types of forest studies, it is essential to identify the exact years of formation of annual rings in increment cores taken from living trees to ensure against counting error, or errors, caused by missing or false rings.Abstract:
For many types of forest studies, it is essential to identify the exact years of formation of annual rings in increment cores taken from living trees. To accomplish this, dendrochronologists employ...read more

Climate increases regional tree‐growth variability in Iberian pine forests
Laia Andreu,Emilia Gutiérrez,Marc Macias,Marc Macias,Montse Ribas,Oriol Bosch,J. Julio Camarero +6 more
TL;DR: A change in tree-growth pattern and in the climatic response of the studied forests was detected since the mid-20th century and linked to an increase in water stress, in agreement with the observed increase in warmer conditions and in precipitation variability.

TL;DR: An enhanced dependence of forest growth on soil moisture during the late-20th century coincides with a rapid rise in summer temperatures and occurs despite potential compensating effects from increased atmospheric CO2 concentration, emphasizing the ecological sensitivity to regime shifts in the hydrological cycle.

Accurately ageing trees and examining their height‐growth rates: implications for interpreting forest dynamics
S. L. Gutsell,Edward A. Johnson +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the validity of classifying tree species as early, mid-, or late-successional based on age and height-growth rates, by comparing the ages and height growth rates of trees in the boreal forest.
