Recent human-induced atmospheric drying across Europe unprecedented in the last 400 years

The atmosphere has dried across most regions of Europe in recent decades, a trend that can be attributed primarily to human impacts, according to tree ring records spanning 400 years and Earth system model simulations.

The twentieth century was the wettest period in northern Pakistan over the past millennium

Long-term precipitation reconstructions indicate a large-scale intensification of the hydrological cycle coincident with the onset of industrialization and global warming — such unprecedented amplitude argues for a human role.

Recent centennial drought on the Tibetan Plateau is outstanding within the past 3500 years

An annually resolved 3476-year tree-ring record from the Tibetan Plateau reveals severe 20^th century droughts and highlights the interplay between the Asian Monsoon and Westerlies. Droughts are often linked to the collapse of dynasties.

Tree rings reveal globally coherent signature of cosmogenic radiocarbon events in 774 and 993 CE

Despite their extensive use, the absolute dating of tree-ring chronologies has not hitherto been independently validated at the global scale. Here, the identification of distinct ¹⁴C excursions in 484 individual tree rings, enable the authors to confirm the dating of 44 dendrochronologies from five continents.

Northern forest tree populations are physiologically maladapted to drought

Northern tree populations may not benefit under climate change, with implications for assisted migration and range expansion. Here, Isaac-Renton et al. show that leading-edge lodgepole pine populations have fewer characteristics of drought-tolerance, so may not adapt to tolerate drier conditions.
