Seasonal and diurnal trends in progressive isotope enrichment along needles in two pine species

Steven A. Kannenberg et al.

Summary: Progressive enrichment of water isotopes in conifer species was observed to fluctuate seasonally with vapor pressure deficit but remained constant during diurnal cycles in meteorological conditions. Despite the presence of significant progressive enrichment, three variants of the Craig-Gordon leaf water isotope model successfully predicted bulk needle Delta O-18, suggesting that progressive enrichment does not impact the predictive success of the models.

Bimodal cambial activity and false-ring formation in conifers under a monsoon climate

Kiyomi Morino et al.

Summary: This study in a mixed-conifer forest at 2573 m above sea level in the southwestern USA explored the timing of wood cell development and environmental impact in ponderosa pine and Douglas-fir trees in 2014. It found that seasonal drought has a significant impact on the timing of cell development, and observed bimodal cambial activity coincident with moisture availability during the rainy season.
