Abstract

In Michoacán, few studies have analyzed the behavior of climatic, ocean-atmospheric, ecological, and geomorphological variability using tree-rings. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the climatic and ocean-atmospheric signal recorded in the tree-rings of Pinus rzedowskii and P. martinezii. Dendrochronological sampling was carried out for P. rzedowskii and P. martinezii, where 76 samples were dated: 45 (P. rzedowskii) and 31 (P. martinezii). In both species, the total ring width was measured using a Velmex® micrometer. Subsequently, Bootstrap correlation analyses were performed between the chronologies of each species and the climate data for precipitation, maximum, average, and minimum temperature, and El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) indices with a significance level of P<0.05. It was found that P. rzedowskii responded significantly to monthly precipitation in January (R=0.34), February (R=0.30), and March (R=0.28) from 1945-2015. The response in maximum, average, and minimum temperature from 1945-2015 was not significant (P<0.05). Similarly, the species was not affected by ENSO ocean-atmospheric conditions (1972-2015; P<0.05). P. martinezii responded significantly to monthly precipitation in January (R=0.30), April (R=0.38), June (R=0.39), August (R=0.43), and October (R=0.28) from 1953-2016. The species showed a significant negative response to the maximum temperature of the 18 months evaluated from 1953-2016 (P<0.05). The influence of ENSO ocean-atmospheric conditions on the radial growth of P. martinezii was positive (1979-2010; P<0.05).
