To core, or not to core: The impact of coring on tree health and a best‐practice framework for collecting dendrochronological information from living trees
Trees are natural repositories of valuable environmental information that is preserved in the
growth and structure of their stems, branches and roots. Dendrochronological analyses …

Tree-ring growth and intra-annual density fluctuations of Pinus pinaster responses to climate: does size matter?
Dendroclimatology generally assumes that climate–growth relationships are age and size
independent. However, there is evidence that climate response can be unstable across …
