“…As the samples were collected from live trees in 2005, the last year of ring formation is 2004. In samples of Araucaria angustifolia, the counting of growth rings is usually used to provide an estimation of tree age (Oliveira et al, 2009;Santos et al, 2015;Lorensi and Prestes, 2016).…”

“…In Brazil, dendrochronological/dendroclimatic studies are still incipient (Fritts, 1976;Schöngart et al, 2002Schöngart et al, , 2004Rigozo et al, 2007aRigozo et al, , b, 2008Lisi et al, 2008;Oliveira et al, 2009;Prestes et al, 2011Prestes et al, , 2014Andreacci et al, 2013;Pagotto et al, 2015;Lorensi and Prestes, 2016;Lorensi, 2016;Perone et al, 2016), considering the great biodiversity and continental dimension of Brazil when compared to South American countries such as Chile and Argentina. However, these kinds of studies have become more numerous in the recent years (Rigozo et al, 2007a(Rigozo et al, , b, 2008Lisi et al, 2008;Oliveira et al, 2009;Prestes et al, 2011Prestes et al, , 2014Andreacci et al, 2013;Pagotto et al, 2015;Lorensi and Prestes, 2016;Lorensi, 2016;Perone et al, 2016).…”

Abstract. In this work, the Sun-Earth-climate relationship is studied using tree growth rings of Araucaria angustifolia (Bertol.) O. Kuntze collected in the city of Passo Fundo, located in the state of Rio Grande do Sul (RS), Brazil. These samples were previously studied by Rigozo et al. (2008); however, their main interest was to search for the solar periodicities in the tree-ring width mean time series without interpreting the rest of the periodicities found. The question arises as to what are the drivers related to those periodicities. For this reason, the classical method of spectral analysis by iterative regression and wavelet methods are applied to find periodicities and trends present in each tree-ring growth, in Southern Oscillation Index (SOI), and in annual mean temperature anomaly between the 24 and 44 • S. In order to address the aforementioned question, this paper discusses the correlation between the growth rate of the tree rings with temperature and SOI. In each tree-ring growth series, periods between 2 and 7 years were found, possibly related to the El Niño/La Niña phenomena, and a ∼ 23-year period was found, which may be related to temperature variation. These novel results might represent the tree-ring growth response to local climate conditions during its lifetime, and to nonlinear coupling between the Sun and the local climate variability responsible to the regional climate variations.

“…Day length and temperature were the main environmental factors influencing the seasonal cambium activity (Oliveira et al, 2009). The majority of past studies usually focused on trees growing in temperate region with definite seasonal climate (Derr & Evert, 1967;Evert & Deshpande, 1970;Antonova & Stasova, 2006;Eilmann et al, 2009;Gričar et al, 2009;Chen et al, 2010;González-González & García-González, 2013).…”

Abstract:The cambial activity and periodicity of secondary xylem and phloem formation have been less studied in tropical tree species than in temperate ones. Cambium activity is the only source of timber production. Studies on its activity and xylem formation can provide helpful data for dendrochronology and possible factors that control tree growth, the yield and quality of wood. Cinnamomum camphora is an important fast-growing tree for furniture and sculpture wood in South China.

“…A partir de los trabajos pioneros de vetter & Botosso (1989) y Worbes (1985Worbes ( , 1989, el número de estudios sobre anillos de árboles en la región tropical y subtropical de Sudamérica, ha aumentado de manera exponencial a medida que se ha incrementado la lista de especies con anillos de crecimiento anuales claramente identificables. Entre tanto, la mayoría de estos estudios se refieren a la presencia y la periodicidad de los anillos de crecimiento (Oliveira, 2007;Oliveira, Santarosa, Pillar & Roig, 2009;Worbes, 2002), mientras que aún siguen siendo escasos los estudios donde se desarrollen cronologías de ancho de anillos y se relacionen con variables climáticas (Baker, Palmer & D'arrigo, 2008;Brienen & Zuidema, 2005b;Dünisch, Montoia & Bauch, 2003;Dünisch, 2005;López & villalba, 2011;Morales et al 2012;Morales, villalba, Grau & Paolini, 2004;Ramírez & Del valle, 2012); Rodríguez et al 2005;Schöngart et al 2004;Solíz et al 2009;Worbes, 2002).…”

Cedrela odorata (Meliaceae) potential for dendrochronological studies in the Selva Central of Perú. Despite the progress made during the past 20 years, searching dendrochronological potential in tropical and subtropical tree species, tropical dendrochronology, is still in a development stage. The aim of this research was to determine the potential of C. odorata for dendrochronological studies in the Selva Central of Perú. The tree-ring anatomical characteristics were carefully examined and we were able to develop a 215 year (1 795-2 009) tree-ring chronology and correlate it with precipitation records. The tree-ring chronology was developed based on 47 series of 27 trees. Tree rings are clearly delimited by large pore diameters in earlywood and small ones in latewood associated with marginal and paratracheal parenchyma. The tree-ring chronology was related to precipitation records from Satipo and significant correlations were found with the previous rainy season and late dry season of the current growth period. Moreover, we found close relationship between tree growth and total precipitations of the hydrological period (December to September) for the interval 1 990-2 009. These results demonstrate the influence of rainfall at different stages of C. odorata radial growth. The good discrimination of annual rings, strong relationship with precipitation, the wide range and longevity of trees (200 years) make C. odorata a very promising species for dendrochronological studies in tropical and subtropical forest of America.
