This seasonal pattern has mainly been attributed to post-photosynthetic processes related to the use and storage of reserve material (starches) for bud break and leaf development.…”

“…Despite the factors mentioned above, leaf and stem isotopic signals were found to correlate well showing very similar seasonal trends (cf. Leavitt & Long 1982;Damesin & Lelarge 2003;Helle & Schleser 2004a). For the prediction of d 13 C wood from Eqn 1, 4‰ were subtracted to account for the fractionations occurring during wood synthesis and the difference between bulk wood and a -cellulose.…”

“…However, recent evidence indicates that our understanding of stable isotope fractionation by plants is far from satisfactory and that the observed variation in isotopic composition cannot fully be explained by earlier models (e.g. Terwilliger & Huang 1996;Damesin & Lelarge 2003). This becomes especially evident when high-resolution isotope profiles of tree rings are investigated.…”

In the present study, the high-resolution stable carbon ( 13 C/ 12 C) and oxygen ( 18 O/ 16 O) isotope ratio profiles in the wood of the mangrove Rhizophora mucronata Lam., a tropical tree species lacking distinct growth rings, were investigated. Variations of both isotope ratios revealed a remarkable annual cyclicity with lowest values occurring at the latewood/earlywood boundary (April-May) and highest values during the transition from earlywood to latewood (October-November). Based on the current knowledge of the physiology of this mangrove species, as well as on the current literature available on high-resolution profiles of stable isotope ratios in tree rings, possible driving forces responsible for this seasonal pattern are discussed. The annual cyclicity, together with a conspicuous isotope pattern appearing in the El-Niño year 1997, promises great potential for tropical dendrochronology.

“…It has been suggested (Damesin & Lelarge 2003) that additional fractionations during sucrose transport from leaves to stems might result in up to 4‰ differences between D in wood and leaves (e.g. Leavitt & Long 1982).…”

“…This mobilization typically results in a decrease in concentrations of C reserves in the majority of tree organs (Barbaroux et al 2003). New leaves and photosynthetic twigs can act as a C source for a few days after budburst, which allows for a rapid increase in C reserves (Damesin and Lelarge 2003), culminating at leaf senescence (Barbaroux and Bréda 2002). The concentration of C reserves typically decreases during winter in deciduous trees as a result of fueling maintenance processes in perennial organs (Barbaroux and Bréda 2002).…”

Abstract& Key message We demonstrate that, beyond leaf phenology, the phenological cycles of wood and fine roots present clear responses to environmental drivers in temperate and boreal trees. These drivers should be included in terrestrial ecosystem models. & Context In temperate and boreal trees, a dormancy period prevents organ development during adverse climatic conditions. Whereas the phenology of leaves and flowers has received considerable attention, to date, little is known regarding the phenology of other tree organs such as wood, fine roots, fruits, and reserve compounds. & Aims Here, we review both the role of environmental drivers in determining the phenology of tree organs and the models used to predict the phenology of tree organs in temperate and boreal forest trees. & Results Temperature is a key driver of the resumption of tree activity in spring, although its specific effects vary among organs. There is no such clear dominant environmental cue involved in the cessation of tree activity in autumn and in the onset of dormancy, but temperature, photoperiod, and water stress appear as prominent factors. The phenology of a given organ is, to a certain extent, influenced by processes in distant organs. & Conclusion Inferring past trends and predicting future trends of tree phenology in a changing climate requires specific phenological models developed for each organ to consider the phenological cycle as an ensemble in which the environmental cues that trigger each phase are also indirectly involved in the subsequent phases. Incorporating such models into terrestrial ecosystem models (TEMs) would likely improve the accuracy of their predictions. The extent to which the coordination of the phenologies of tree organs will be affected in a changing climate deserves further research.
