Central Asia is the world's largest non-zonal arid area, with rare and uneven precipitation.
As a sensitive area of global change and with a vulnerable ecological environment, Central …

Forests are sensitive to climate change at high altitude and high latitude. Dahurian larch
(Larix gmelinii Rupr.) has experienced an unprecedented forest retreat northward during the …

This paper reports on a detailed dendrochronological and dendroclimatological study of
juniper trees (Juniperus seravschanica Kom. and J. semiglobosa Regel), sampled at seven …

The isobaric and isochoric heat capacities of seven 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium bis
(trifluoromethylsulfonyl) imides, two 1-alkyl-1-methylpyrrolidinium bis (trifluoromethylsulfonyl …

Forests provide fundamental ecosystem services. Environmental changes are predicted to
affect forest growth directly through increased environmental stressors, and indirectly by …

We developed a 1108 yr chronology of tree-ring widths, based on 64 Himalayan pencil
juniper (Juniperus semiglobosa Regel) trees, for the Pamir-Alay Mountains, central Asia …

Juniper is one of the three main tree species in Central Anatolia, where it grows under
extreme environmental conditions. Although dendrochronological studies of juniper are …

Detailed analyses were conducted of human impact on juniper forest landscapes occurring
within the Zarafshan Range (Pamir-Alay). Juniperus seravschanica and J. semiglobosa …

The juniper tree forest is a critical component of the carbon, water, and energy cycles of
Tajikistan. However, to date, long-term information about tree-ring isotopes is limited in this …

Long-term high resolution climate proxies are essential for understanding climate variability
particularly, in regions such as the western Himalayas of northern Pakistan, where few long …
