The mechanistic understanding of isotope fractionation processes is increasing but we still
lack detailed knowledge of the processes that determine the isotopic composition of the tree …

Stable isotopes in tree rings could provide palaeoclimate reconstructions with perfect annual
resolution and statistically defined confidence limits. Recent advances make the approach …

Increasing frequency of extremely dry and hot summers in some regions emphasise the
need for silvicultural approaches to increase the drought tolerance of existing forests in the …

The eastern Mediterranean region witnessed changes in human culture of the highest
importance between~ 9000 and~ 2500 cal. BP (7000—500 BC) and over the same time …

Because atmospheric carbon dioxide is the ultimate source of all land-plant carbon, workers
have suggested that pCO2 level may exert control over the amount of 13C incorporated into …

Tree-ring analysis in the tropics exists since more than one hundred years. In more than 20
tropical countries and numerous tree species the existence of annual tree-rings is doubtless …

We investigated the response of conifer trees in northern Eurasia to climate change and
increasing CO2 over the last century by measuring the carbon isotope ratio in tree rings …

The theoretical basis for application of stable isotope mass balance of lakes is described for
a range of climatic situations including low latitude, high latitude, high altitude, continental …

Evidence is presented for a very specific, seasonally recurring tri‐phase carbon isotope
pattern in tree rings of broad‐leaf deciduous tree species. It is derived from highly resolved …

The current state of dendrochronology's contributions to climatology is surveyed, with an
emphasis on the extent to which its actual and potential strengths are being used, and its …
