Bioclimate and growth history affect beech lifespan in the Italian Alps and Apennines (2012, methodology): “Beech stands in Italy have shown a well-defined bioclimatic organization of dendroclimatic signals and the existence of altitudinal gradients in tree growth (Piovesan et al., 2005, 2011; Di Filippo et al., 2007).”
Species-specific climate sensitivity of tree growth in Central-West Germany (2009, background): “Of the three studied tree species, F. sylvatica is most sensitive to annual drought events, and its climate sensitivity is comparable to that close to its southern distribution limit (Rozas 2001; Di Filippo et al. 2007 ).”
Contrasting tree-ring growth to climate responses of Abies alba toward the southern limit of its distribution area (2010, background): “Accordingly, several diff erent species have highlighted distinct spatial responses of their sensitivity to climate variability (Piovesan et al. 2005, Carrer et al. 2007, Di Filippo et al. 2007).”
