description | This paper presents the results of a dendroclimatological analysis of the
growth of fir trees in the Borja mountain area, Bosnia and Herzegovina. The
required data were taken in 2 sites, and the sample covered a total of 60
series of radial increment (15 dominant trees per site with two cores).
Standard dendrochronological processing and data analyses using the Coffecha
and Arstan software were performed. The preliminary 137-years long regional
fir chronology for the Borja mountain area was obtained. The obtained
results of the correlation analysis between the radial increment index of
the defined chronology, on the one hand, and the monthly precipitation and
temperature, on the other, showed that higher summer precipitation
significantly increased the increment of fir, and that the increase in
temperature in these months did not not cause a significant increment
reduction. However, the results of the FAI drought index application for the
stated purposes have shown that more intense droughts in the summer months
can cause a significant reduction in the increment of fir in a given area. |
