Wood anatomy of Juniperus communis: a promising proxy for palaeoclimate reconstructions in the Arctic
Original language description
The Arctic is one of the most sensitive areas worldwide with respect to climate changes, and recent climate change impacts are evident throughout Arctic ecosystems. In order to put current and projected changes in a palaeoclimatic context, exact information of past conditions and therefore detailed knowledge of proxy archives are crucial. Here, we investigated wood anatomical and other growth-related records of the long-lived and widespread Arctic tundra shrub Juniperus communis L. Annual ring-widths and cell anatomical parameters of 20 individuals from south-west Greenland were measured to test for age-related trends in the proxy time series and to correlate them with past climatic conditions. We documented a clear age trend in the investigated growth parameters (ring-widths, conduit-lumen areas, and cell wall thicknesses,which indicates the need for detrending the time series prior to possible climate correlation analyses and climate or environmental reconstructions. Prostrate growth forms of J. co
