“…Minimum temperatures have long been shown to limit the radial growth of trees at most high-altitude locations or in high-latitude regions, including eastern Asia (Lv & Zhang, 2013;Zhu et al, 2015), northern Europe, and North America (Bigelow et al, 2014;Fritts, 1976). Our investigation supports prior work at smaller scales (Li & Wang, 2013;Su & Wang, 2017) but also identifies a similar pattern of climatic sensitivity at a large spatial scale.…”

“…At the same time, water/drought stress on Amur cork tree will increase in the north and the southern edge. We also found a significant positive effect of temperature or climate change (warming) on broadleaf tree species, for example, Amur cork tree (this study), F. mandshurica and J. mandshurica (Li & Wang, 2013;Su & Wang, 2017;Zhu et al, 2015), was opposite of conifer species in the broadleaf-Korean pine forests, such as the P. koraiensis Zhu et al, 2016), P. jezoensis var. microsperma (Yu et al, 2006), Abies nephrolepis, and P. koraiensis Yao, 2013;Zhu et al, 2016).…”

“…microsperma, and Picea koraiensis Nakai Yao, 2013;Yu et al, 2006;Zhu et al, 2016). Studies on tree growth-climate relationships of angiosperms in Northeast China are scarce, especially at the regional and subregional scales (Li & Wang, 2013;Su & Wang, 2017;Zhu et al, 2015). However, they comprise more than 33% of the regional biomass; hence, their response to climate change will strongly influence the dynamics of these forests.…”

“…This species not only has important economic and ecological values, but it is also a major source of huáng bò, an important element of traditional Chinese medicine (Li, 1982). In recent decades, the population of Amur cork tree has suffered a sharp decrease, and some protective and restorative work, afforestation, currently being conducted is not successful due to the complex and changeable climate (Li & Wang, 2013;Su & Wang, 2017). Therefore, it is urgent to improve our understanding of the relationship between Amur cork tree growth and climate factors to better protect this rare species.…”

“…Therefore, it is urgent to improve our understanding of the relationship between Amur cork tree growth and climate factors to better protect this rare species. Two previous dendroclimatological studies of Amur cork tree were from a single site or a very small area (Li & Wang, 2013, Su & Wang, 2017, and the broadscale patterns of climatic limitations on its growth are not known. Hence, we carried out a regional dendroecological analysis on Amur cork tree from a network of 12 sites across its range in Northeast China.…”

We used a dendrochronological approach to identify the spatial variability in growth‐climate relationships of Amur cork tree (Phellodendron amurense), using a network of 12 sites across its natural range in Northeast China. Results showed that the signal‐noise ratio, expressed population signal, and mean interseries correlations of the site chronologies decreased significantly with decreasing latitude. Correlation matrix, cluster, and rotated empirical orthogonal function (EOF) analysis all indicated that the 12 chronologies can be classified into two groups, the southern and northern chronologies. Minimum temperature (Tmin) was a major factor limiting Amur cork tree growth at regional scales. Almost all sites had positive correlations with monthly temperature, while correlation coefficients with precipitation were much lower than minimum temperature correlations, and only a few months (January, April, and July) were significant (p < 0.05). The positive effects of summer Tmin on tree growth were significantly decreased with increasing latitude (except BSL site), while positive effects of summer precipitation increased significantly with latitude and longitude and decreased significantly with altitude. The southern nine site chronologies (EOF‐1) were significantly positively correlated with the seasonal or annual Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO) index of the previous year and the current spring, while the northern three chronologies (EOF‐2) showed different relationships, which is consistent with the spatial relationship between PDO and local temperature. The spatial variability in growth‐climate relationships of Amur cork tree can be affected by PDO, which can modulate the spatiotemporal variation of spring onset, autumn termination, and the effective accumulated temperature by affecting local temperature.

Betula platyphylla and Betula costata are important species in mixed broadleaved-Korean pine (Pinus koraiensis) forests. However, the specific ways in which their growth is affected by warm temperatures and drought remain unclear. To address this issue, 60 and 62 tree-ring cores of B. platyphylla and B. costata were collected in Yichun, China. Using dendrochronological methods, the response and adaptation of these species to climate change were examined. A “hysteresis effect” was found in the rings of both species, linked to May–September moisture conditions of the previous year. Radial growth of B. costata was positively correlated with the standardized precipitation-evapotranspiration index (SPEI), the precipitation from September to October of the previous year, and the relative humidity in October of the previous year. Growth of B. costata is primarily restricted by moisture conditions from September to October. In contrast, B. platyphylla growth is mainly limited by minimum temperatures in May–June of both the previous and current years. After droughts, B. platyphylla had a faster recovery rate compared to B. costata. In the context of rising temperatures since 1980, the correlation between B. platyphylla growth and monthly SPEI became positive and strengthened over time, while the growth of B. costata showed no conspicuous change. Our findings suggest that the growth of B. platyphylla is already affected by warming temperatures, whereas B. costata may become limited if warming continues or intensifies. Climate change could disrupt the succession of these species, possibly accelerating the succession of pioneer species. The results of this research are of great significance for understanding how the growth changes of birch species under warming and drying conditions, and contribute to understanding the structural adaptation of mixed broadleaved-Korean pine (Pinus koraiensis) forests under climate change.
