Recent Widespread Tree Growth Decline Despite Increasing Atmospheric CO2
BACKGROUND The synergetic effects of recent rising atmospheric CO(2) and temperature are expected to favor tree growth in boreal and temperate forests. However, recent dendrochronological studies have shown site-specific unprecedented growth enhancements or declines. The question of whether either of these trends is caused by changes in the atmosphere remains unanswered because dendrochronology...
متن کاملLaser Photoacoustic Detection of CO2 in Old Disc Tree-Rings
A homemade CO2-laser photoacoustic spectrometer has been used for monitoring CO2 in gas samples extracted under vacuum from the wood of old spruce disc tree-rings for a ∼60 year series. The experimental results show that (1) the CO2 concentration exhibits annual trends correlated with an increase in atmospheric CO2 in a number of cases; (2) at the time when the annual CO2 trend changes from pos...
متن کاملRecent Trends in Archaeological Theory: Some Comments
This paper selectively reviews some recent themes in archaeological theory: a philosophical pragmatism, a turn to materiality, and understanding the past in the context of the present. It concludes with some reflective comments on the author’s Archaeological Theory: An Introduction, in advance of the third revised edition.
متن کاملThe effects of recent control policies on trends in emissions of anthropogenic atmospheric pollutants and CO2 in China
To examine the effects of China’s national policies of energy conservation and emission control during 2005– 2010, inter-annual emission trends of gaseous pollutants, primary aerosols, and CO2 are estimated with a bottom-up framework. The control measures led to improved energy efficiency and/or increased penetration of emission control devices at power plants and other important industrial sou...
متن کاملSpatial diversity of recent trends in Mediterranean tree growth
Increasing temperatures and shifting precipitation regimes define the Mediterranean Basin (MB) as one of the world’s most sensitive climate change hot spots. Among various ecological effects, disruptions in the growth-climate response of Mediterranean forest species have been recently observed. Complex topographical and climatological factors, however, may result in contrasting patterns of rece...
