The Earth's history is punctuated by large explosive eruptions that eject large quantities of
magma and silicate rock fragments into the atmosphere. These tephra particles can …

Over the last few years, rockfall research has increasingly focused on hazard assessment
and risk analysis. Input data on past rockfall activity were gathered from historical archives …

It is well known that tree growth is strongly affected by climate at high elevations, but it is still
unclear how climate variability influences the distribution of montane forest ecosystems …

We review a vast literature of Neotropical forest science and wood anatomical research that
identifies 220 tree species from 46 botanical families with confirmed annual tree-ring …

Based on the stratigraphic record of the deposits, analysis of previous works, historic
archives, and eyewitness accounts the 1913 eruption of Volcán de Colima was …

Paleorecords provide information on past environmental variability, and help define
ecological reference conditions by means of changes in their characteristics (accumulation …

We present a synthesis of locally absent (or “missing”) growth rings across the Northern
Hemisphere based on 2359 publicly available tree ring‐width records. During the last …

We present here the 2001–2004 results of observational field studies aimed at quantifying
tropical timberline climate and radial increment of Pinus hartwegii Lindl. trees on Nevado de …

The relationship between wood growth and environmental variability at the tropical treeline
of North America was investigated using automated, solar-powered sensors (a …

The 2011 eruption in the Puyehue-Cordón Caulle volcanic complex deposited up to 50 cm
of tephra in a plume that intersected the crest of the Andes along Route 215, offering an …
