Abstract
The phenological plasticity in tree growth is recognized to be one of the characteristics of Pinus halepensis Mill., which growth may be divided in two annual cycles. The traditional dendroclimatic studies usually identify the relationship between climate and growth of this species from the annual tree-ring widths which may hide different influences of different climate elements over these two periods. The objective of the present study is to determine the influence of seasonal climatic conditions on earlywood and latewood, and to find out if such seasonal information derived from annual tree rings can give us a better interpretation and identification of climate-growth relationships on the seasonal scale in P. halepensis. For this purpose we used 28 chronologies from the Mediterranean area covering almost all the climatic range of natural distribution of P. halepensis in Spain, a wide range because of the aforementioned ecological plasticity.
