Christmas Island, located in the eastern Indian Ocean, presents an example for which severe drought conditions during the wet season not only affects its freshwater resources but also biodiversity on the island, including the migration pattern of the iconic red crab species. However, short-term instrumental climate records on this island make it hard to quantify drought variability and assess its associated risks. Tree growth is affected by drought via reduced soil moisture, and hydroclimate reconstruction from tree-ring chronologies can therefore provide longer-term information on historical variability of dry and wet periods. Here, we reconstructed the wet season (December-May) self-calibrating Palmer Drought Severity Index (scPDSI) for Christmas Island using 64 remote tree-ring chronologies from Asia, Australia, and New Zealand. scPDSI was reconstructed using the Point-to-Point Regression (PPR) method and compared with regional marine coral proxies for independent verification. The remote tree-ring chronologies explained more than 66 percent of scPDSI variance (R-squared) over the calibration period. The trees identified as significant predictors in the regression model were primarily located in areas affected by the Indo-Pacific climate drivers including the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD). The reconstructions span 1540 CE to 2000. During the first four centuries of this period, the frequency of extreme (5th percentile) droughts and pluvial events rarely exceeded one event per 13 years. In contrast, the frequency of both extremes experienced an unprecedented increase during the 20th century, and with a notable shift towards dry conditions. These findings highlight a significant shift towards more frequent and severe dry conditions during the wet season on Christmas Island, posing a challenge to water resource management and potentially threatening the island's ecosystem and services to the community.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":50595,"journal":{"name":"Dendrochronologia","volume":"86 ","pages":"Article 126238"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-07-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141638232","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We used annual tree diameter measurements and stem discs from 139 16-year-old trees belonging to five native species planted in the Sardinilla tree diversity experiment in Panama and compared three methods to determine annual radial growth. Employing inventory measurements, visual stem disc analysis, and wood density measurements, series of radial growth were calculated to compare relative growth during wet and dry extreme events, and to compute continuous climate-growth correlations. Our results show that annual radial growth data derived from wood density profiles are best suited for climate-growth relationships, as they could capture a common growth signal within the high intraspecific variability of young trees to seasonal climatic variables. Annual radial growth data derived visually and from inventories are still useful for quantifying growth responses during extreme drought. The highest similarity among methods to determine annual radial growth, combined with the strongest climate-growth relationships, were found for <em>Cedrela odorata</em>, a species that shows a pronounced decrease in water use and cambial dormancy during the dry season.

Tamarisks tolerate drought and salt stress by using shallow and deep soil water sources depending on precipitation and flow variability in ephemeral or permanent streams. Therefore, their radial growth and wood anatomy would differently respond to precipitation and drought severity depending on stream ephemerality. To assess these responses, tree-ring-width, earlywood anatomy and sapwood nutrient concentrations were measured in five riparian tamarisk stands located in semi-arid north-eastern Spain. These sites experienced different aridity degrees and were located near ephemeral (e.g., Lanaja-dry site) or permanent streams in intensively irrigated agricultural areas (e.g., Valcuerna). Tree rings were widest in Peñaflor (2.94 mm) and narrowest in the driest Lanaja-dry site (1.11 mm), where tree-to-tree growth coherence was higher than in the other sites. Wet conditions during the water year enhanced growth, particularly in the most responsive Lanaja-dry site and in Lopín, whereas elevated flow increased the earlywood hydraulic diameter in Valcuerna. In the Lanaja-dry site, Ca, Cu, K and Mn wood concentrations were higher than in Valcuerna, but C and N concentrations were lower. Elevated Ca wood concentrations correspond to higher drought stress in the Lanaja-dry site, whereas higher N concentrations reflect eutrophication due to extensive use of agricultural fertilizers in Valcuerna. In sites near permanent streams such as Valcuerna, depth to groundwater may be a more robust proxy of growth than in drier sites located near more ephemeral streams such as Lanaja-dry site where tamarisk growth is constrained by 12-month long spring droughts.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":50595,"journal":{"name":"Dendrochronologia","volume":"86 ","pages":"Article 126234"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1125786524000717/pdfft?md5=1e3d7461080c32f59f4de566d1974809&pid=1-s2.0-S1125786524000717-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141607832","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Thinning is a common forest management practice used to alter tree growth and climate-growth relationships. Although the effects of thinning on tree response during drought have been investigated, how thinning modulates post-drought legacy effects remains largely unknown. In this study, based on tree-ring data of 140 trees, we examined the effects of thinning on post-drought legacy effects using the quantile mixed effect model for Chinese fir (<em>Cunninghamia lanceolata</em>) in Southeastern China. The tree-ring data were stratified sampling from a thinning experiment applied 10 years ago in 8-year-old plantations, and included four thinning intensities (20 %, 25 %, 33 %, and 50 % reduction of tree number) and an unthinned control treatment. Drought legacy effects of tree growth positively depended on tree social status with the magnitudes and variations larger in higher status classes. Dominant large trees without thinning management had the greatest drought legacy effects. Although the effects of thinning varied slightly at different quantiles, they all indicated that thinning mitigated the growth legacies after drought and the reduction effect was more pronounced with increasing thinning intensity. Thinning could also reduce post-drought climate sensitivities, but only after moderate thinning (20 % and 25 % thinning intensity). Heavier thinning (33 % and 50 % thinning intensity) instead enhanced tree growth responses to climate changes following drought. Thinning intensity needs to be carefully considered to really reap the post-drought benefits of forest thinning management. Our findings suggested that mild thinning offered an alleviation of climate dependency following drought in addition to reducing drought legacy effects on growth, benefiting tree recovery from drought. The results of this study are useful to inform management adaptive strategies for drought-vulnerable plantations under increasingly frequent droughts.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":50595,"journal":{"name":"Dendrochronologia","volume":"86 ","pages":"Article 126235"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-07-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141637055","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We investigated two stands of pollarded Mediterranean oaks (<em>Quercus subpyrenaica</em>), where pollarding was abandoned in the 1950s, showing contrasting land cover and tree sizes in north-eastern Spain. Changes in land cover, soil characteristics (texture, pH, and nutrient concentrations), climate conditions, and tree-ring data (basal area increment −BAI−, and ring-width indices) were analysed.

The less fertile soils in Artosilla, where pine plantations diminish canopy thermal amplitude, may contribute to the long-term growth decline observed there. Moreover, more major growth suppressions were found in this site, particularly in the 1940s, which suggest a more intensive historical use. Aineto showed a stronger BAI decline since the 1950s, which could be a response to increasingly warmer and drier summer conditions. In contrast, growth in Artosilla is decoupling from soil and atmospheric drought suggesting chronic growth stagnation.

This study uses dendrochronological methods to examine the relationship between climate extreme and two unique natural forests found on the southern slopes of the Tianshan Mountains—Diversifolious Poplar (<em>Populus euphratica</em> Oliv.) and Schrenk spruce (<em>Picea schrenkiana</em> Fisch. et Mey.). The findings reveal a high degree of climate sensitivity in <em>P. schrenkiana</em>, in contrast to the relative stability of <em>P. euphratica</em>. The warming trend has notably altered the growth responses of both species to extreme climate events, with <em>P. euphratica</em>, due to its lower elevation habitat, experiencing more pronounced effects from extreme precipitation events compared to <em>P. schrenkiana</em>. These outcomes underscore the substantial perturbations that extreme climate changes can inflict upon radial tree growth. In light of these findings, tailored management and conservation strategies should be implemented for distinct climate extremes and tree species.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":50595,"journal":{"name":"Dendrochronologia","volume":"86 ","pages":"Article 126219"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141438094","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
