Larix principis-rupprechtii is an important afforestation tree species in the North China alpine coniferous forest belt. Studying the correlations and response relationships between L. principis-rupprechtii radial growth and climatic factors at different elevations is helpful for understanding the growth trends of L. principis-rupprechtii and its long-term sensitivity and adaptability to climate change. Pearson correlation, redundancy (RDA), and sliding analysis were performed to study the correlations and dynamic relationships between radial growth and climatic factors. The main couclusions are as follows: (1) The three-elevation standard chronologies all exhibited high characteristic values, contained rich climate information and were suitable for tree-ring climatological analyses. (2) Both temperature and precipitation restricted lowelevation L. principis-rupprechtii radial growth, while monthly maximum temperatures mainly affected mid-high-elevation L. www.videleaf.com principis-rupprechtii radial growth. (3) Mid-elevation L. principis-rupprechtii radial growth responded to climate factors with a "lag effect" and was not restricted by spring and early summer drought. (4) Long-term sliding analysis showed that spring temperatures and winter precipitation were the main climatic factors restricting L. principis-rupprechtii growth under warming and drying climate trends at different elevations. The tree-ring width index and Palmer drought severity index (PDSI) were positively correlated, indicating that L. principisrupprechtii growth is somewhat restricted by drought. These results provide a reference and guidance for L. principisrupprechtii management and sustainable development in different regions under warming and drying background climate trends.

Global warming has exacerbated the instability of the climate and has led to the frequent occurrence of extreme cold and warm events. In this study, we constructed a standardized tree-ring width chronology of Korean spruce (Picea koraiensis Nakai) growing in a representative high-latitude region in the monsooncontinental climate transition zone in China from 1845 to 2016 and used it to analyse the response of the radial growth of Korean spruce to climatic factors such as temperature and precipitation. The results show that the annual mean temperature was the dominant climatic factor affecting the growth of Korean spruce. Hence, we reconstructed the annual mean temperature series of this region spanning the past 172 years. The analysis results show that the study area experienced ve warm periods and ve cold periods in the past 172 years. Cold years were dominant before 1960s, while temperature continuously rose and changed drastically in the early 21st century. The reconstructed annual mean temperature series has variability cycles of 3 a, 7 a, 10-12 a, 15-22 a, and 30-40 a. The results of this reconstruction enrich the tree-ring database in the representative regions of the monsoon-continental climate transition zone in China and provide a reference for systematically understanding the climate change patterns in the representative regions of the transition zone.
