Effect of interannual climate variations on radial growth of jack pine provenances in Petawawa, Ontario
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Effect of interannual climate variations on radial growth was compared among jack pine ( Pinus banksiana Lamb.) of diverse geographical origins in a 41-year-old common-garden experiment in Petawawa, Ontario. Provenance experiments established from seeds transferred from different parts of a species range (from the northern United States to northern Canada) to the same environment might be considered as a simulation model of climate change and a shift of climate zones. The following questions are addressed: Did the response of growth to interannual climate variations differ among the provenances transferred within the experimental site? What climatic factors affect interannual growth variations of jack pine provenances? Tree-ring chronologies for 16 populations were developed for the period 1970–2004. The best climate predictors of radial growth were precipitation of June and March of the current year and precipitation of December of the previous year. Although, climatic factors affecting growth were similar between the provenances, absolute radial growth was proportional to the growth potential of the provenances. We conclude that variability due to seeds origins is not a significant source of variation for dendroclimatic studies of jack pine. Increased frequency of summer droughts might result in a growth decrease of jack pine.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
