Possible causes of the recent rapid increase in the radial increment of silver fir in the Western Carpathians
Original language description
Silver fir is one of the most productive and ecologically valuable native European tree species, however, it has been experiencing decline which has periodically occurred over its natural range. This paper aims to investigate the recent climateegrowth relationships of silver fir (Abies alba Mill.) and its temporal change along the course of its life. Long-term tree-ring databases, as well as records on climate, atmospheric SO2, NO3 and acid concentrations from four different regions in the Western Carpathians were used. The results provide clear evidence of significant increase of silver fir?s radial increment over the entire Western Carpathian area since 1970e1980. The results indicated that the most probable factors behind the rapid recovery of treeradial increment were reductions in emissions of NO3 and SO2, alongside a significant increase in mean June, July and April temperatures
