We present up-to-now knowledge about the response of radial growth of spruce, beech and fir trees in homogeneous and species-mixed forests on climate variation in West Carpathians, of which the majority part is within the Slovakia territory. We use the results from different studies that had been conducted recently as well as first results of ongoing project focused especially on mixed forest stands created by species of so called “Carpathian mixture”. The first material come from the central part of Slovakia and was acquisited in 2004-2006. The material consists of 455 dominant and co-dominant trees of spruce and beech from 18 homogeneous and evenaged forest stands. Second material has being conducted during the ongoing project. Here, the main attention is paid to the mixed, uneven-aged stands constituted by spruce, fir and beech trees. The inter- and intra-species variation in the response of radial growth on climatic variation is analyzed. The use of standard dendrochronological methods for study of the response of the species on climate variation is analyzed here, and several suggestions are presented.
