abstract = {Although studies on stable-carbon isotopes in trees from
temperate zones provide abundant paleoclimatic data,
tropical trees are still understudied in this context.
Therefore this study examined the variability of intra- and
inter-annual stable-carbon isotopic pattern in several tree
species from various tropical climates. The δ13C values of
samples of 12 broadleaved trees (seven species) from various
paleotropical and neotropical sites along a climatic
moisture gradient were investigated. The inter-annual
variability between species and sites was studied. Further
the relationship between δ13C and precipitation time series
was analyzed. Results show that tropical tree species show a
similar variability in carbon isotopic composition as
temperate tree species. Significant correlations between
annual precipitation and tree-ring δ13C time series were
negative. Successful crossdating of a tree-ring δ13C time
series highlights the potential of carbon isotope
measurements for tropical tree-ring analytical studies.
Tropical broadleaved trees are able to capture a carbon
isotopic signal in their annual rings even under everwet
conditions and show good potential for paleoclimatic
research.},
