  • Climate signal and potential of Bosnian pine (Pinus heldreichii Christ) for climate reconstruction in central W Balkan Region [Elektronski vir]
    Levanič, Tom ; Ballian, Dalibor ; Poljanšek, Simon
    Bosnian pine (Pinus heldreichii Christ) - PIHE, is a species native to mountainous areas of the Balkans and southern Italy. PIHE is a tree species of the upper tree line in the Dinaric mountains and ... as such a promising source of valuable climate information. Due to its longevity it might have a good potential for long climate reconstructions based solely on living trees. Aim of our study was to investigate potential of PIHE (1) for construction of long PIHE chronologies for the region of the central W Balkan and (2) for long climate reconstructions based mostly on cores from living trees. Preliminary PIHE chronology is 437 (1573-present) years long and has a sufficient sample depth for EPS>0.85 from 1659 onwards. Comparison with climate data show specific response of PIHE to climate % trees respond positively to above average temperature in March (Mt) and negatively to above average temperature in June and July (JJt). We found weak positive response to June and July precipitation (JJp). This is somehow expected since precipitation are abundant along the Dinaric mountain ridge and are not factor in minima. Running window statistics reveal a significant temporal change in the identified signals % JJt and JJp signals were significant before 1965, and Mt after 1965.
