High-resolution dating of medieval silver-lead mining through integrated archaeological, dendrochronological and dendroanthracological analyses of firesetting remains (Vallauria, Alpes-Maritimes, France)

Léane Levillain, Mélanie Saulnier, Bruno Ancel, Laurent Larrieu et autres

Accurately dating ancient mining activities remains a major challenge, particularly where radiocarbon chronologies lack precision. This study aims to refine the chronology of medieval silver–lead exploitation at the Vallauria mine (Alpes-Maritimes, France) through an integrated dendrochronological and dendroanthracological approach. The analysis focuses …

Modeling adaptive growth in forest trees: Integrating individual variation to understand climate responses in widely-distributed species

Arne Buechling, Charles D. Canham, Nataliya Korolyova, Mélanie Saulnier et autres

An improved understanding of how forest trees may respond individually and differentially to climate across broad environmental gradients, due to adaptation or physiological acclimation, may facilitate more robust forecasts of forest resilience under climate change. We present a framework for modeling stem …

Data from "Modeling adaptive growth in forest trees: integrating individual variation to understand climate responses in widely-distributed species

Arne Buechling, Charles D. Canham, Nataliya Korolyova, Mélanie Saulnier et autres

Description of datasets This dataset is associated with a manuscript that presents a modeling framework for integrating individual-level variation in tree growth responses to climate, competition, and nitrogen deposition across broad environmental gradients in Central European primary forests. The data provide annual …

Can subfossil insects complement pedoanthracology in reconstructing the past trajectories of old-growth forests? A study case from the Northern Central Pyrenees (France)

Sarah Parrilla, Mélanie Saulnier, Laurent Larrieu, Lionel Valladares et autres

The presence of insect remains preserved in soils has the potential to serve as a complementary proxy to charcoal, facilitating the reconstruction of Holocene forest trajectories at high spatial resolution. Six pits were dug at three old-growth forest sites (two per site) …

Trunk- and branch- data derived radial increments of Pinus brutia Ten., Cupressus sempervirens L., and Quercus pubescens Willd. subsp. pubescens from Crete for dendro- and anthraco-typological analysis

Léane Levillain, Mélanie Saulnier, Alexa Dufraisse, Laurent Larrieu et autres

(Downy oak). The dataset, which was collected from well-characterised forest stands in eastern Crete, includes measurements from both trunk and branch slices. A subset of branch samples was experimentally carbonised to quantify radial shrinkage, a critical correction factor for analysing archaeological charcoal. …

Roofing at the crossroads: timber procurement for historical roof construction at the confluence of two major waterways in Occitania (France)

Roberta D’Andrea, Léa Gerardin-Macario, Vincent Labbas, Mélanie Saulnier et autres

Research on historical roof structures and timber supply networks in southwestern France remains scarce. Combining archival sources and epigraphic evidence with dendrochronological data, we examined three roofs located at the confluence of the Garonne and Tarn rivers to better understand timber procurement …

Filling the gaps: Original chronologies of silver fir (Abies alba Mill.) and European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) living trees in the French Pyrenees

Mélanie Saulnier, Vincent Labbas, Roberta D’Andrea, Sylvain Burri et autres

Between 2016 and 2024, as part of several research projects on forest history in the mountain belt of the central French Pyrenees, we cored 360 living trees at breast height, including 309 silver fir (Abies alba Mill. 1768) and 51 European beech …
