Climate change and the regulation of wood formation in trees by temperature
Key message A better understanding of the influence of environmental conditions on wood
formation should help to improve the radial growth of trees and to prepare for climate …

New perspective on spring vegetation phenology and global climate change based on Tibetan Plateau tree-ring data
Phenological responses of vegetation to climate, in particular to the ongoing warming trend,
have received much attention. However, divergent results from the analyses of remote …

Critical minimum temperature limits xylogenesis and maintains treelines on the southeastern Tibetan Plateau
Physiological and ecological mechanisms that define treelines are still debated. It has been
suggested that the absence of trees above the treeline is caused by low temperatures that …

Critical temperature and precipitation thresholds for the onset of xylogenesis of Juniperus przewalskii in a semi-arid area of the north-eastern Tibetan Plateau
P Ren, S Rossi, JJ Camarero, AM Ellison… - Annals of …, 2018 - academic.oup.com
Abstract Background and Aims The onset of xylogenesis plays an important role in tree
growth and carbon sequestration, and it is thus a key variable in modelling the responses of …

A longer wood growing season does not lead to higher carbon sequestration
A reliable assessment of forest carbon sequestration depends on our understanding of
wood ecophysiology. Within a forest, trees exhibit different timings and rates of growth …

Is precipitation a trigger for the onset of xylogenesis in Juniperus przewalskii on the north-eastern Tibetan Plateau?
Background and Aims A series of studies have shown that temperature triggers the onset of
xylogenesis of trees after winter dormancy. However, little is known about whether and how …

Z Qi, H Liu, X Wu, Q Hao - Global Change Biology, 2015 - Wiley Online Library
Forest growth is sensitive to interannual climatic change in the alpine treeline ecotone
(ATE). Whether the alpine treeline ecotone shares a similar pattern of forest growth with …
