Tree-ring intra-annual stable isotopes (δ13C and δ18O) are powerful tools for revealing
plant ecophysiological responses to climatic extremes. We analyzed interannual and fine …

Tree-ring oxygen isotope (δ 18 O TR) is a powerful proxy for paleoclimatology, ecology and
archaeology, δ 18 O TR studies in Asia over the past∼ 50 years have made significant …

Climatic reconstructions based on tree-ring isotopic series convey substantial information
about past conditions prevailing in forested regions of the globe. However, in some cases …

Forests on oceanic islands, such as the Azores archipelago, enable interesting
dendroclimatic research, given their pronounced climatic gradients over short geographical …

Water availability and uptake by trees will be important to predict tree growth, especially in
regions with increasingly drying climate. Tree-ring δ 18 O (δ 18 O TR) can be influenced by …

In semi-arid regions of the world, knowledge about the long-term hydroclimate variability is
essential to analyze and evaluate the impact of current climate change on ecosystems. We …

Alpine snowfall is an important source of water for arid areas. To investigate the history of
alpine snowfall beyond instrumental records, we developed a tree-ring α-cellulose oxygen …

The influence of tree age on the growth response of Picea likiangensis, a predominant
timber species in southwestern China, to climatic factors has been under-researched. In this …

Increases in temperatures and atmospheric CO2 concentration influence the growth
performance of trees worldwide. The direction and intensity of tree growth and physiological …

Climate change has had a widespread and profound impact on global temperature and
precipitation patterns, especially in semi-arid areas. Plant δ13C and iWUE indicate the trade …
