Response of conifers to UV-B and climate in mountain areas
The present study was focused to examine the combined effects of climate and ultraviolet-B radiation on conifer tree-ring density. Statistical methods were employed to extract tree responses in annual ring density and to identify functional relationship in trees when the level of ultraviolet-B radiation changes regardless of climate variations. In this study, the consideration was given to the ...
متن کاملRegionalization of dryland farming potential as influenced by droughts in western Iran
Clustering was used to divide dryland farming areas in western Iran into homogeneoussub-regions to identify dryland farming potential, considering drought impacts. Clusteringutilized eight algorithms/four indices to detect optimal number of clusters. Ward’s algorithmvalidated by Silhouette index, produced the best result by detecting 7 dryland farming clusters.Based on similar P/ETo values, fou...
متن کاملBivariate Drought Analysis Using Streamflow Reconstruction with Tree Ring Indices in the Sacramento Basin, California, USA
Long-term streamflow data are vital for analysis of hydrological droughts. Using an artificial neural network (ANN) model and nine tree-ring indices, this study reconstructed the annual streamflow of the Sacramento River for the period from 1560 to 1871. Using the reconstructed streamflow data, the copula method was used for bivariate drought analysis, deriving a hydrological drought return per...
متن کاملSpatial Analysis of Meteorological Drought in Iran from 1965 to2003
The present study examined year-to-year variations in areas affected by drought during a period of 39 water yearsin Iran. Ninety-five meteorological stations were chosen to provide near-continuous long-term records, althoughsome data was missing (less than 10%). The missing data points were estimated using a linear correlation methodbetween the reference station with the missing data points and...
متن کاملMillennium tree‐ring reconstruction of drought variability in the eastern Qilian Mountains, northwest China
Global mean surface temperatures have risen by 0.85 ± 0.20 °C, over the period 1880–2012, and projections of future climate change suggest further global warming (IPCC 2013). Warming of the global climate is expected to be accompanied by increase of global precipitation, as warmer air is able to hold more water vapour (Wentz et al. 2007). However, precipitation changes are expected to differ fr...
