arXiv:2607.07905v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Tree growth determines how much CO2 is sequestered from the atmosphere and temporarily stored in woody biomass. At the same time tree growth is affected by increasing temperatures, more frequent drought periods, late frosts and other extreme events associated with climate change. While continuous measurements of radial (secondary) tree growth using dendrometers are well established, monitoring of shoot elongation (primary growth) has largely been neglected because suitable measurement techniques are lacking. As a result, the effects of climate c
