Journal Article
A forced response to twentieth century climate conditions of two Spanish forests inferred from widths and stable isotopes of tree rings
2009
Overview
This dendroclimatological research is based on two close pine forests (
Pinus sylvestris
and
Pinus uncinata
) located at the Northern Iberian System (Spain), and three tree-ring variables (ring widths,
δ
13
C and
δ
18
O). The climate-tree growth system was assessed at local and regional scales using three climate datasets. Calibration of tree-ring records with climate showed a diversity of information recorded in the different variables, such as a general response to temperature and precipitation of current growing period, and an important contribution of previous year conditions understood as the use of food reserves. The analysis of the stability of climate-tree growth relationships throughout the twentieth century showed a shift of those climatic variables to which trees responded and results suggested an enhancement of reserve use on current tree growth. The results obtained in this research made clear a physiological adaptation of trees to changing climate. The results provided hints that the recent warming coupled to slight precipitation decay are forcing growth of studied trees to a higher stress status and to a higher climate-growth synchronisation. These instabilities also have implications on future dendroclimatic reconstructions performed with trees growing under changing environments.
