Tree-ring studies provide important contributions to understanding the climate sensitivity of
tropical trees and the effects of global change on tropical forests. This chapter reviews recent …

Modern-day periodic climate pattern variations related to solar activity are well known. High-
resolution records such as varves, ice cores, and tree-ring sequences are commonly used …

Isotopes in tropical trees rings can improve our understanding of tree responses to climate.
We assessed how climate and growing conditions affect tree-ring oxygen and carbon …

Our World is changing rapidly, yet, how tropical forests will respond to this change and in
turn dampen or accelerate its ripple effects is essentially a physiological question …

Cities are vulnerable to droughts and heatwaves due to the decline in permeable green
spaces and the emergence of heat islands. To tackle these environmental challenges, many …

The leaf longevity of trees, deciduous or evergreen, plays an important role in climate
feedbacks and plant ecology. In modern forests of the high latitudes, evergreen trees …

Mycorrhizas are intimate mutualistic relationships between plants and fungi that represent
an integral component of ancient and extant ecosystems. These symbioses have been …

The purported consensus that human greenhouse gas emissions have causally dominated
the recent climate warming depends decisively upon three lines of evidence: climate model …

Pollen is a useful proxy for reconstructing paleoclimate; however, the relationship between
its stable isotopic composition and the environment in which it forms is still poorly …
