Selected approaches of climate-growth relationship determination of trees
Pekař, Ondřej ; Treml, Václav (advisor) ; Ponocná, Tereza (referee)
Presented bachelor thesis describes the use of tree-ring widths in dendroclimatology and main approaches of climate variables reconstruction. It reviews the basics about climate influence on tree- ring fromation and extraction of climate signal from tree-rings. Main standartization methods were used to develop 26 standard and residual chronologies from adjusted and not adjusted tree-ring series coming from high-elevation Norway sporuce stands. Chronologies were compared in terms of correlation with summer temperatures. The best correlated temperature variable were the June-July temperatures both for standard and residual chronologies. Tree-ring width chronologies were scaled to observed June-July temperatures. Based on comparison of scaled and real June-July temperatures, negative exponential function and RCS method appear to be the most suitable to preserve both high and low frequency climate signal. Key words: Dendroclimatology, tree-rings chronology, standardization, climate reconstruction
