Analyzing of usability of tree-rings as biomonitors for monitoring heavy metal accumulation in the atmosphere in urban area: a case study of cedar tree (Cedrus sp.)
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Environmental Monitoring and Assessment"
DOI: 10.1007/s10661-019-8010-2
Abstract: It is important to monitor the heavy metal pollution in order to identify risk zones and to determine the change in the heavy metal concentration of the atmosphere within the process. For this, it is… read more here.

Tree rings as an early warning against catastrophic landslides: Assessing the potential of dendrochronology for determining slope stability
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Dendrochronologia"
DOI: 10.1016/j.dendro.2018.12.002
Abstract: Abstract We investigated three slopes (in southern Poland, the Carpathian Mts, and the Sudeten Mts) subject to catastrophic, sudden landslides. To reconstruct past landslide activity, we analysed the eccentricity of tree rings in the stems… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.dendro.2020.125686
Abstract: Abstract The precise demarcation between earlywood and latewood is important for the detailed analysis of intra-annual tree ring features. Different techniques based on visual assessment, wood anatomy analysis and X-ray densitometry have been developed and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.dendro.2021.125844
Abstract: Abstract Above-ground forest productivity can be reliably estimated from tree-ring width measurements. In doing so, annual growth is linked to the tree’s basal area increment (BAI), which is the change in cross-sectional area associated with… read more here.
