Fig. 4 Correlation and response function analysis between climate (mean, maximum and minimum temperature, precipitation and relative humidity) and tree-ring chronology of Wolong National Natural Reserve, western Sichuan of China. Bar diagrams are the results of correlation analysis and line graph is the results of response function analysis. The dashed lines represent significant effects (p < 0.05) for correlation analysis, and the asterisks above columns represent significant effects (p < 0.05) for response function analysis.
