The impacts of climatic factors on radial growth patterns at different stem heights in Schrenk spruce (Picea schrenkiana)

Key message While radial growth patterns at different stem heights were similar, tree-ring samples collected at breast height showed diminishing chronology strength for detecting climatic signals because of differences in climate responses. In this study, basal area increments (BAI) and tree-ring ch...
