Climatal signal in different paramers of tree-rings of pine in the Solovetsky Archipelago

The dendroclimatic analysis of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) growing on the Solovetsky Archipelago is presented in the paper. Based on the measurements of tree-ring parameters, four chronologies lasting 175 years were developed: 1) the annual ring width, 2) the earlywood and 3) latewood widths, 4) and the Blue Intensity. Tree-ring width is the most commonly measured parameter. Blue Intensity is a surrogate for maximum (X-ray) density (MXD). A correlation analysis carried out between the chronologies showed significant coefficients among themselves. The response function analysis was applied for each chronology. Each tree-ring parameter is controlled by different climatic factors. It has been established that the tree-ring width and the earlywood width are negatively affected by the summer temperatures of the previous year, and positively influenced by precipitation of the current year. The temperatures of March, May and July, as well as the precipitation of July of the current year, are important for the formation of latewood. In addition, a more detailed dendroclimatic analysis was carried out, namely, the calculation of partial correlations, which show the influence of primary and secondary climatic factors on the chronology. As a result of the analysis, the influence of July precipitation on the growth of latewood was found. This association is significant even when both primary and secondary variables are used. The relationship between the Blue Intensity and climatic parameters is significantly different. It is characterized by high correlation coefficients with the temperature of the warm period (April - September). The climatic signal inferred in Blue Intensity shows more temporal stability compared to other studied tree-ring parameters. The obtained for Solovetsky Archipelago do not contradict with previous findings in neighboring regions, for example, in Fennoscandia. Comparing the signal strength and temporal stability in various tree-ring parameters, it can be confidently stated that Blue Intensity is the most promising parameter for developing a paleoclimatic reconstruction in the Solovetsky Archipelago.
