      abstract     = {Reaction wood formation, in particular compression wood in
                      conifers, has often been used to date geomorphic events such
                      as debris flows or snow avalanches. However, very little is
                      known yet about the variations of tension wood formation and
                      particularly cross-sectional vessel characteristics in
                      response to different mechanical impacts. To test whether
                      different intensities and characteristic forms of tension
                      wood formation induce the formation of vessels with changing
                      sizes, growth experiments with different treatments were
                      conducted with alder and beech followed by wood anatomical
                      analysis of the vessels. The experiments comprised bending
                      treatments of varying severities in combination with cambium
                      wounding and other alterations. The treatments were
                      successful in inducing different intensities in tension wood
                      expressed by variations of vessel lumen area (VLA). An
                      increasing bending stress resulted in the formation of lower
                      VLA values. When the apex or the root system was damaged or
                      the apex remained vertical, VLA values decreased less and
                      the tension wood formation was regarded as less intense. Our
                      research shows that VLA is affected by mechanical impacts
                      and that the application of wood anatomical techniques can
                      potentially provide supplementary information about type and
                      intensities of past mechanical impacts in angiosperm tree
