The warming of the global climate system is expected to result in significant socio-economic
stress, primarily through the occurrence of extreme weather and climate events, with the …

Correlation coefficients are widely used to identify and quantify climate signals in proxy
archives. Significant relationships between tree-ring chronologies and meteorological …

Long-term records of tree-ring width (TRW), latewood maximum density (MXD) and blue
intensity (BI) measurements on conifers have been largely used to develop high-resolution …

Tree ring records are among the most valuable resources to create high-resolution climate
reconstructions. Most climate reconstructions are based on old trees growing in inaccessible …

Maximum latewood density (MXD) measurements from long-lived Black pines (Pinus nigra
spp. laricio) growing at the upper treeline in Corsica are one of the few archives to …

Tree ring-based temperature reconstructions are preferably derived from maximum
latewood density (MXD) compared to tree-ring width (TRW). Although temperature signals in …

Tree-rings are the prime archive for high-resolution climate information over the past two
millennia. However, the accuracy of annually resolved reconstructions from tree-rings can …

This study investigates the relationship between soil moisture and the growth of Pinus
halepensis, P. nigra, P. sylvestris and P. uncinata, which are some of the main pine species …

Palaeoclimatic evidence is necessary to place the current warming and drying trends of the
Mediterranean region in a long‐term perspective of pre‐industrial variability. Annually …

The maximum latewood density (MXD) of tree rings can reflect the temperature of the
growing season, but the timing of the response differs among regions. We selected 152 …
