X‐ray microdensitometry on annually resolved tree‐ring samples has gained an exceptional position in last‐millennium paleoclimatology through the maximum latewood density (MXD) …
Purpose Droughts are expected to become more intense and frequent. Mixed forests can be more resilient to extreme events, but are the individual trees in mixed forests also more …
Wood microdensitometry is the analysis of radial variations of density at the annual or intra- annual growth ring level. Density is related to wood quality, biomass, carbon content, tree …
Forecasting the growth of tree species to future environmental changes requires a better understanding of its determinants. Tree growth is known to respond to global‐change …
Quantifying carbon dynamics in forests is critical for understanding their role in long-term climate regulation,,–. Yet little is known about tree longevity in tropical forests,,,–, a factor that …

Organic materials of woody plants are complex and show internal, structural, and morphological variations due to genetic and environmental influences. Variability can be …
Abstract Background and Aims Tree rings, as archives of the past and biosensors of the present, offer unique opportunities to study influences of the fluctuating environment over …
The global role of tree-based climate change mitigation is widely recognized; trees sequester large amounts of atmospheric carbon, and woody biomass has an important role …
Understanding tree growth and carbon sequestration are of crucial interest to forecast the feedback of forests to climate change. To have a global understanding of the wood …
