May-June maximum temperature reconstruction from mean earlywood density in north central China and its linkages to the summer monsoon activities.
Cores of Pinus tabulaformis from Tianshui were subjected to densitometric analysis to obtain mean earlywood density data. Climate response analysis indicates that May-June maximum temperature is the main factor limiting the mean earlywood density (EWD) of Chinese pine trees in the Shimen Mountains....
