My research focuses on climate change effects on tree growth at arctic and alpine treelines. I use dendrochronological proxies such as tree rings, wood density, and wood anatomy to investigate climate-growth responses at different temporal resolution (annual to sub-weekly). In my current project, I combine wood anatomy\/xylogenesis with forward models to better understand how temperature and moisture availability have interacted in limiting tree growth over the past decades.<\/p><\/div><\/div>

I am mainly interested in the climatic growth responses of conifers in the Czech Republic and the influence of topography on this relationship. Another focus of my interest is the impact of extreme drought events on stem (tree rings) and leaf growth (vegetation indices).<\/p><\/div><\/div>

I am a geographer working with tree rings. My main scientific interest is in understanding trees and what we can learn from them as long-lasting records of environmental change. I focus on reconstructing climate and extreme hydroclimatic and geomorphological events using various dendrochronological methods, both new and traditional. I work mainly in the mountains and other cold environments (e.g., Carpathians, Himalayas, Scandinavia).<\/p><\/div><\/div>

I have a background\u00a0in forestry and environmental sciences and I\u2019m interested in environmental management and biodiversity, as well as the effects of climate change on tree and shrub growth in subalpine environments. My current research focuses on the effects of climate on coniferous trees using inter- and intra-annual analyses and tree growth models to better understand the influence of limiting factors on tree growth.<\/p><\/div><\/div>
