Himalayan fir growth in central Bhutan reflects variability in temperature and precipitation
Original language description
Mountain ecosystems, especially those at the highest altitudes, are sensitive to current climate change. Proxyarchives may provide an insightful tool to better understand ongoing changes and evaluate future scenarios. Trees havetraditionally been used as such archives, as they often respond sensitively to environmental change. Thus, we studiedtree-ring records of forest-line species Abies densa Griff. growing in the Eastern Himalayas, central Bhutan, to evaluatethe effect of climate on the growth of this species. The annual chronologies were generated using standard dendrochronological methods and then compared with climatic data from the CRU TS database. The results demonstratea negative effect of summer temperatures on the width of the annual rings, suggesting possible stress caused by highertemperatures during the monsoon season. On the other hand, a positive effect of temperatures on tree growth wasobserved during late winter months. The response to rainfall was mixed, with a positive effect on growth in Novemberand a negative effect in May and January, suggesting a later onset of the vegetation season. To our knowledge, we present the first dendroclimatological study on this long-lived species in central Bhutan, portraying its potential for futureclimate and environmental research and applications.
