The demand for large-scale and long-term information on tree growth is increasing rapidly
as environmental change research strives to quantify and forecast the impacts of continued …

Abstract Knowledge of the temperature variability during the last one to two millennia is
important for providing a perspective to present‐day climate excursions, for assessing the …

The boreal forest biome is a major component of Earth's biosphere and climate system that
is projected to shift northward due to continued climate change over the coming century …

Predicted increases in temperature and aridity across the boreal forest region have the
potential to alter timber supply and carbon sequestration. Given the widely-observed …

Larch, a widely distributed tree in boreal Eurasia, is experiencing rapid warming across
much of its distribution. A comprehensive assessment of growth on warming is needed to …

Tree growth varies closely with high–frequency climate variability. Since the 1930s
detrending climate data prior to comparing them with tree growth data has been shown to …

Perennially frozen soil, also known as permafrost, is important for the functioning and
productivity of most of the boreal forest, the world's largest terrestrial biome. A better …

Boreal forests are warming faster than the rest of the planet. Do the benefits of higher
temperatures and longer growing seasons for forest productivity exceed the negative effects …

To place recent hydroclimate changes, including drought occurrences, in a long-term
historical context, tree-ring records serve as an important natural archive. Here, we evaluate …

Understanding how tree growth is affected by rising temperature is a key to predicting the
fate of forests in future warmer climates. Increasing temperature has direct effects on plant …
