We review evidence for climate change over the past several millennia from instrumental
and high‐resolution climate “proxy” data sources and climate modeling studies. We focus on …

An anomalous reduction in forest growth indices and temperature sensitivity has been
detected in tree-ring width and density records from many circumpolar northern latitude sites …

The R package treeclim helps perform numerical calibration of proxy‐climate relationships,
with an emphasis on tree‐ring chronologies. The package provides a unified, fast, and …

Tree-ring chronologies are often calibrated against instrumental climate records using
correlation and response functions. DENDROCLIM2002 uses bootstrapped confidence …

Each tree ring contains an image of the time when the ring formed, projected onto the ring's
size, structure, and composition. Tree rings thus are natural archives of past environments …

Tree populations located at the geographical distribution limit of the species may provide
valuable information about tree‐growth response to changes on climatic conditions. We …

To understand the effect of climate on tree-ring features, such as width or density, tree-ring
data have to be calibrated against instrumental records. The high degree of multicollinearity …

Earth's hydroclimatic variability is increasing, with changes in the frequency of extreme
events that may negatively affect forest ecosystems. We examined possible consequences …

Tree rings are widely used long‐term proxy data which, if combined with long‐term
instrumental climate records, can provide excellent information on global climate variability …

Aim To identify the dominant spatial patterns of Fagus sylvatica radial growth in the Eastern
Alps, and to understand their relationships to climate variation and bioclimatic gradients …
