1. The effect of raw material properties on pulping kinetics : an initial study of spruce sapwood
Abstract : .... READ MORE

2. Trees and the environment : Possibilities and challenges in tree-ring research across spatial and temporal scales based on case studies in Sweden
Abstract : The need to understand and quantify the magnitude and frequency of past and current environmental changes increased the demand for high-resolution proxy data across spatial and temporal scales. Due to their long lifespan and global distribution, trees provide a unique and continuous record of environmental variability. READ MORE

3. Late Holocene spatiotemporal hydroclimatic variability over Fennoscandia inferred from tree-rings
Abstract : There is a broad scientific consensus that the global climate is changing, and that human activity is a significant factor contributing to the change. The response of the hydrological cycle to the warming is far reaching, including increases in the intensification and frequency of extreme hydroclimatological events. READ MORE

4. Summer Climate Variability during the Past 1200 Years in Central Scandinavia – A Tree-Ring Perspective
Abstract : To set the current 20th century warming in a long-term context, significant efforts have been made to reconstruct hemispheric-to-global temperatures beyond the instrumental period. Tree-rings, which have annual resolution and can be precisely dated, have been widely used to infer past climate variability. READ MORE

5. Tree-rings and climate - Standardization, proxy-development, and Fennoscandian summer temperature history
Abstract : Instrumental meteorological observation are too short for trying to estimate climate change and variability on multi-decadal and centennial time-scales, and when trying to evaluate the response of the climate system to human influence, such as raised concentrations of green house gases (GHG), altered land-use, black carbon etc. To access information about the climate system predating instrumental observations, reliable proxy records (natural archives) are necessary.
