Ranking of tree-ring based temperature reconstructions of the past millennium
Tree-ring chronologies are widely used to reconstruct high-to low-frequency variations in
growing season temperatures over centuries to millennia. The relevance of these timeseries …

Cooling and societal change during the Late Antique Little Ice Age from 536 to around 660 AD
Climatic changes during the first half of the Common Era have been suggested to play a role
in societal reorganizations in Europe 1, 2 and Asia 3, 4. In particular, the sixth century …

[HTML][HTML] Tree-Ring Chronologies from the Upper Treeline in the Russian Altai Mountains Reveal Strong and Stable Summer Temperature Signals
Radial tree growth at high-elevation and high-latitude sites is predominantly controlled by
changes in summer temperature. This relationship is, however, expected to weaken under …

Revising midlatitude summer temperatures back to AD 600 based on a wood density network
Annually resolved and millennium‐long reconstructions of large‐scale temperature
variability are primarily composed of tree ring width (TRW) chronologies. Changes in ring …

Signals and memory in tree-ring width and density data
It has been suggested that maximum latewood density (MXD) should be used instead of tree-
ring width (TRW) data to reconstruct post-volcanic cooling effects. A thorough assessment of …

Temperature‐induced responses of xylem structure of Larix sibirica (Pinaceae) from the Russian Altay
• Premise of the study: Xylem structure determines the hydraulic and mechanical properties
of a stem, and its plasticity is fundamental for maintaining tree performance under changing …
