Аннотация: The results are presented for a study of the radial growth dynamics and xylotomic structure along the trunk of healthy and stag-headed Dahurian larch trees (Larix gmelinii (Rupr.) Rupr.) growing in an evenly aged forest stand (64 degrees 19 ' 23 '' N, 100 degrees 13 ' 28 '' E) on permafrost on a north-facing slope. The annual ring widths, as well as the tracheid lumens and wall thickness were measured at 1/4, 1/2, and 3/4 of the trunk height and directly near the top for 25 intact and stag-headed trees. It was discovered that the aforementioned parameters demonstrate a negative gradient from root to top that was especially evident in stag-headed trees. The annual rings on the upper part of the trunk has undergone anatomic modifications over the last 20 years: disturbance of the tracheid rows and thinning of the walls of early- and late tracheids. It was found based on the climatic moving response functions of radial growth that the trees on north-facing slope suffer from a water deficit from the end of May until the twenties of June. The presence of both stag-headed and healthy trees on the north-facing slope can be explained by the high variation in the soil's hydrothermal properties due to the high degree of tessellation of the moss-lichen layer. With time, the sensitivity of certain trees to a water shortage can lead to drying of their tops.
