We examined changes in and relationships between radial growth and intrinsic water-use efficiency (iWUE) of ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa) trees, climate, and atmospheric CO2 in the western United States since the mid-nineteenth century. We developed tree-ring chronologies for eight sites in three climate regions and used carbon isotope data to calculate pentadal values of iWUE. We examined relationships among radial growth, climate, iWUE, and CO2 via correlation and regression analyses. Significant upward trends in iWUE occurred at all sites, and despite an absence of climate changes that would favor growth, upward radial growth trends occurred at five sites. Our findings suggest that increased iWUE associated with rising CO2 can positively impact tree growth rates in the western United States and are thus an evolving component of forest ecosystem processes. 相似文献

The expansion of Choctawhatchee sand pine (Pinus clausa) into longleaf pine forests (Pinus palustris) has been widespread on the Florida Panhandle since the early 1900s. This study examines the population-level processes of this sand pine invasion. Expansion of sand pine started by 1920, but rapidly increased in the 1940s. Population establishment and growth in invasive stands has been rapid, with establishment of many sand pine pioneer individuals followed by rapid infilling as these individuals reached reproductive maturity. Both noninvasive and invasive stands had numerous sand pine seedlings and saplings. Sand pine will likely persist in these communities in the near future. Analyses of hemispherical canopy photographs and regeneration patterns illustrate the ability of sand pine to establish under a variety of light conditions. Radial growth analysis of incremental tree cores highlights the importance of episodic wind disturbances in maintaining these sand pine populations.

树木生长响应气候变化的敏感度是全球变化研究的重要内容。利用20世纪以来美国本土1058个样本点的树轮宽度指数和温度、降水数据,通过相关分析,揭示了树木生长速率年际变化响应气候变化敏感度的时空差异。研究发现：① 美国树木径向生长速率与温度普遍负相关、与降水普遍正相关,绝大多数地区树木生长受水分条件限制。② 径向生长速率对温度和降水响应敏感度呈现一定的季节差异,最敏感的季节因地区而异,这主要与不同月份温度、降水条件差异导致的水分条件变化有关。同时,径向生长速率对温度、降水响应敏感度还随着气候条件变化而变化,随着年平均温度升高（降低）,径向生长速率与温度的负相关逐渐增强（减弱）,随着年降水增加（减少）,与降水的正相关强度逐渐减弱（增强）。 相似文献

在全球气候变化背景下,明确评估树木生长对气候变化的响应机制,包括年际、年内径向生长变化及其物候现象,是深刻了解现在森林生态系统中树木生长状况及精准模拟其未来生长态势所必须的前提条件。另外,研究年内树木径向生长与气候因子的关系将会更加丰富当前从传统树轮气候学或树轮生态学研究中所得到的认识。然而,目前在高分辨率水平上（年内）直接观测树木径向生长变化对气候因子响应过程的方法或手段仍然有限。其中,微树芯方法以其独特的优势而得到了广泛的应用,尤其是在欧洲及北美加拿大地区,但在热带及亚洲的研究还相对较少。涉及内容除其最直接的监测树木径向生长变化外,也开展了不同方面的对比研究,如分析年龄效应、海拔效应、健康状况等对树木生长的影响。此外,研究者也在部分区域尝试了控制对比试验,如探讨了人为增温/冷却、干旱胁迫、森林抚育间伐措施是如何影响树木径向生长变化的。本文就以上各方面进行了详细评述。 相似文献

Climate response and radial growth of Pinus tabulaeformis at different altitudes in Qilian Mountains
In order to test whether the relationship between climate and the radial growth of trees is affected by altitude, altitude variability and time stability of climate-influenced radial growth of a dominant conifer, Chinese pine (Pinus tabulaeformis), in the eastern Qilian Mountains were studied against the background of climate change using dendrochronology. Results show that 1) droughts at the end of the growing season of last year and during the early and middle growing season of the current year were the main limiting factors for the radial growth of Chinese pine at two altitude gradients; this was determined by analyzing the relationship between tree-ring width chronologies and climate factors. 2) The sensitivity of the radial growth of trees to climate change gradually decreased and was affected more by drought stress at a lower altitude. 3) An unstable divergence response was observed in the radial growth at the two altitudes, in response to controlling climatic factors; this observation was based on the moving correlation analysis of growth/climate relationships, and the aggravation of drought stress caused by increasing temperature was the main reason. 4) The growth rate of Chinese pine at the two altitudes increased at first and then decreased, as measured by basal area increment (BAI) modeling. Future temperature rises may have significant effects on mountain forest ecosystems in arid and semi-arid regions. Effective management and protection measures should be taken, according to the response patterns of trees to climate change at different altitude gradients. 相似文献

We examined radial growth rates of locally co-occurring Douglas-fir (PSME – Pseudotsuga menziesii var. glauca) and ponderosa pine (PIPO – Pinus ponderosa var. ponderosa) trees growing within the Northern Rockies to determine if there are differential growth and climatic responses between these species and whether these responses are consistent among topographically and climatologically diverse sites. We developed standardized tree-ring chronologies from seven sites, with each site a matched pair of PSME and PIPO. For each chronology we examined the climate response of radial growth by comparing the standardized ring widths to a suite of climatic variables. We examined temporal changes by comparing 1905–1950 and post-1950 growth rates and climatic conditions. Both conifers experience increased radial growth post-1950. A combination of spring/summer moisture conditions related positively to radial growth and the primary climatic drivers were consistent both between species and within the region. The primary climatic drivers of radial growth remain unchanged during the last century or have trended toward drier conditions unfavorable for growth. We conclude that increases in standardized radial growth rates are unlikely climatically-driven. Other potential vectors of radial growth change, such as atmospheric CO2 enrichment, have affected these co-occurring species on a largely equal basis and positively. 相似文献

Elevated CO2 level in the atmosphere is expected to improve the tree growth rates and intrinsic water-use efficiency (iWUE). Although current results inferring from tree rings found the tree growth decline in water-limited area, it is still unclear whether spruce trees in humid southwestern China benefit from the increasing CO2. In this study, tree-ring width data were used to investigate the tree radial growth rate of Chuanxi spruce (Picea likiangensis var. balfouriana). Moreover, combining with the tree-ring carbon isotope date, we analyzed the physiological responses of Chuanxi spruce to rising CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere (Ca) associated with climatic change in southwestern China. From 1851 to 2009, iWUE of Chuanxi spruce rose by approximately 30.4%, and the ratio of atmospheric CO2 to leaf intercellular CO2 concentration (Ci/Ca) showed no significant trend in the study area. The result suggested that Chuanxi spruce used an active response strategy when Ca was significantly increased. iWUE showed a significant increasing trend in parallel with tree radial growth, indicating that the increasing iWUE resulted in an increase in radial growth. These results suggest that spruce forests in southwestern China have not shown declining trends under increasing Ca and climate change scenarios, in contrast to trees growing in water-limited areas. Therefore, spruce forests benefit from the increasing CO2 in the atmosphere in the humid areas of southwestern China. 相似文献

To make predictions of future climate it is necessary to understand the past climate—temperature as well as precipitation. While a wealth of temperature proxies exist from northern latitudes, there is still a lack of information about past precipitation variability. Here we present a 300‐year‐long tree‐ring width chronology from xeric‐site Scots pines (Pinus sylvestris L.) in Tyresta National Park, east central Sweden. Tree‐ring widths were compared to the long observed temperature and precipitation records from Stockholm during 1786–2000. Analyses of the climate/growth relationship showed that, in general, May–June precipitation had a dominating influence on pine growth. However, during dry periods, negative responses to June–July temperature were stronger, especially evident in the late nineteenth century. Periods of below‐average growth were associated with dry conditions in May–June, but occasionally periods of wet and cool summers also produced narrow rings. Periods of above‐average growth were linked to wet, but sporadically also cool and dry, early summers. The years between 1815 and 1833 appear to be particularly dry in the 300‐year context. Since growth anomalies are found in other Swedish drought‐sensitive tree‐ring chronologies during this period, it is likely that this dry period had a regional extent. This is the first tree‐ring chronology from southern Sweden that provides multi‐century information of past summer drought and moisture variability with high resolution and the study will add important information regarding past climate variability in southern Sweden. 相似文献

了解树木径向生长对气候响应的区域特征是模拟或预测未来全球变化如何对森林生态系统产生影响的基础。对青藏高原东北部(祁丰)干旱气候条件下与南部(林周)高寒半干旱气候条件下的两条标准化年表分析发现,两年表敏感度均较高,样芯间一致性均较强,为分析树木径向生长对气候要素的响应关系提供了保障。对祁丰和林周树轮宽度序列与其附近酒泉(1951-2009年)和当雄(1963-2009年)气象站上年5月到当年9月的气候因子(月平均气温、月最高气温、月平均最低温和月降水量)进行相关和响应分析发现,祁丰和林周树木的径向生长与当年5-6月平均气温存在负相关关系,相关系数分别为-0.360和-0.466;而与当年5-6月降水量显著正相关,相关系数分别为0.499和0.623。祁丰和林周树轮宽度序列与帕尔默干旱指数(PDSI,1951-2005年)的格网数据在每个月份均呈正相关关系,与5-6月的相关值分别为0.581和0.719。上年7月到当年6月的降水量与祁丰(r=0.529)和林周(r=0.667)树轮宽度序列的相关值也较高,推断干旱状况是限制高原东北部与南部树木径向生长的主要因素。 相似文献

The relationship between climate and tree-growth for loblolly pine in north Georgia is investigated by: 1) determining during which months climate has its strongest impact on loblolly pine growth, and 2) specifically examining the relationship between loblolly pine growth and growing season precipitation. Response function analyses indicate that precipitation during the current May-August period has a positive effect on pine growth, while the previous growing season shows no significant effect on growth. Significant negative effects of temperature were found during the previous June and August, current April, and the current June-September period. A regression model predicting the May-September growing season rainfall total as a function of tree-ring indices was highly significant (r2 = 0.48). These results indicate that loblolly pine is a useful species for investigating the impact of climate and other factors on the recent decline of pine growth in the southeastern United States.

Climate change and climate anomalies are inducing strong variations in the high‐mountain environment, driving the responses of physical and biological systems differently. This paper assesses tree‐ring growth responses to climate for two Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.) sites at different altitudes from an Ortles‐Cevedale Group (OCG; internal zones of the Central Italian Alps) valley site and reports some examples of climate impact on glacier dynamics in the OCG in recent decades. Growth–climate relationships between tree‐ring chronologies and meteorological data were established by means of Pearson's correlation and response functions. In the high‐altitude chronology we found a strong signal of July temperatures, whereas the low‐altitude chronology also contained a signal of summer precipitation. Climate anomalies occurring in these months proved to influence tree growth at the two sites differently. In summer 2003 extreme climatic conditions established over Europe and the Alps, strongly affecting physical and biological systems. Spruce responses to the climate anomaly of 2003 were more evident with a one‐year lag. The high‐altitude site profited from the warmer growing season, whereas trees at the low‐altitude site experienced water stress conditions and their growth was strongly inhibited also in the following year. Glacier mass loss in the OCG in 2003 was the highest since yearly measurement started. The examples reported confirm the strong and even divergent variations affecting the Alpine environment, induced by recent climate change. 相似文献

中国利用树轮资料重建干湿变化研究进展 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
树木年轮资料定年准确、分辨率高、连续性强,已成为研究过去全球变化的重要信息来源之一。中国树轮与干湿变化研究,样点分布广泛,研究树种较多,重建尺度较长。基于树轮宽度、密度和同位素等各种代用指标,在分析树木径向生长对干湿变化响应、重建历史时期干湿变化等方面取得很大进展。一般来说,在干旱半干旱区的低海拔区域,水分条件,尤其是春季、秋季和年湿润状况,是树木径向生长的重要影响因素。森林上限、相对冷湿区域以及亚热带气候区,树木生长与降水的相关性偏弱。在时间尺度上,基于树轮重建的长于1000年甚至超过2000年的干湿变化序列已有多条,主要分布在青藏高原地区。目前最长年表已达4500年,最长降水序列为3500年。本文通过对部分树轮成果的简要概括,以期为树轮采样和干湿变化重建提供借鉴与帮助。 相似文献

贡嘎山东坡不同海拔高度树轮宽度对气候变化的响应 总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2
树木生长对气候变化的响应机制是气候重建的基础,在不同的气候或环境背景下,树轮宽度对气候变化的响应不同,其响应随着地形或海拔等因素的变化而变化。利用采自贡嘎山东坡5个海拔高度的树轮样本建立了树轮宽度年表,并对年表特征、年轮宽度及其对气候要素的响应进行分析,探讨了该区树木径向生长对气候变化的响应关系。结果表明:年轮平均宽度具有随海拔高度的增加而减小的趋势,树轮宽度对气候要素的响应也具有海拔差异。在海拔3700m的森林上限树轮宽度与当年7月份平均温度显著正相关,在海拔3000m高度与3月份平均温度显著正相关,而在海拔2800m树轮宽度与气候因子之间没有显著的响应关系。通过与海螺沟冰川末端进退变化和文献记载的特殊气候年份对比发现,树轮宽度年表与海螺沟冰川进退变化及文献记录的特殊气候年份具有一定的一致性,宽度年表对气候变化具有一定的指示意义。 相似文献

Physiological and growth responses of Populus davidiana ecotypes to different soil water contents 总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3
Changes in dry matter accumulation and allocation, gas exchange, abscisic acid content (ABA) and water use efficiency (WUE) of three contrasting Populus davidiana ecotypes were recorded after exposure to five different soil water contents. The ecotypes used were from dry, middle and wet climate regions, respectively. In the controlled environment study, five different soil water contents which were watered to 100%, 80%, 60%, 40% and 20% field capacity were used, respectively. Significant differences in height growth (HT), total biomass (TB), total leaf area (LA), total leaf number (TLN), specific leaf area (SLA), root/shoot ratio (RS), net photosynthesis (A), transpiration (E), stomatal conductance (C), transpiration efficiency (WUET) and instantaneous water use efficiency (WUEi) between the ecotypes were detected under all soil water contents. Ecotypic differences in ABA and carbon isotope composition (δ13C) were also detected under low soil water contents, but these differences were not significant under high soil water content. Compared with the wet climate ecotype, the dry climate ecotype had lower HT, TB, LA, TLN, SLA, A, E and C, and higher RS, WUET and WUEi under all soil water contents. On the other hand, the dry climate ecotype also exhibited higher ABA and δ13C as affected by low soil water contents than the wet climate ecotype. These morphological and physiological responses to water availability showed that the different ecotypes may employ different survival strategies under drought at the initial phase of seedling growth and establishment. The wet climate ecotype possesses a prodigal water use strategy and quick growth, while the dry climate ecotype exhibits a conservative water use strategies and slow growth. 相似文献
