| description | The hydroclimatic reconstruction is relevant to understand how a forest watershed works and take decisions about its management. In this study the precipitation and streamflow on Piaxtla river watershed was reconstructed, using tree-ring width index values from Pseudostuga menziesii. From seven dendrochronological series, a regional series (RS) was built. The correlation of RS with ocean-atmosphere phenomena like El Nino/Southern Oscillation, Pacific Decadal Oscillation, Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation, and Palmer Drought Severity Index was tested. Results showed the reliability of reconstructing the November-April precipitation and the November-August streamflow from the early wood series with verified and validated equations: Precipitation = -271.538 + 447.764*(Early wood index), (r = 0.85, n = 49, p < 0.0001) and Streamflow = 5.123 + 0.623*(log10(Early wood index)), (r = 0.68, n = 46, p < 0.001). Except for the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation, all climate circulatory events had significant correlation to the dendrochronological information. This study confirms the high sensibility of P. menziesii in the Sierra Madre Occidental reflected in a high correlation among tree-ring width series and hydroclimatic variables. For this reason, the potential of this study should be expanded to monitor any change in the availability of water resources and for the valuation of hydrological environmental services. |

La reconstrucción de variables hidroclimáticas es importante para comprender el funcionamiento de las cuencas forestales y tomar decisiones sobre su manejo. En este trabajo se reconstruyó la precipitación y el caudal medio a partir de información de anillos de crecimiento de Pseudostuga menziesii en la cuenca del río Piaxtla. Con la información de siete series dendrocronologías, se construyó una sola cronología regional. Se probó la correlación de la cronología regional con eventos de fenómenos océano-atmósfera como El Niño Oscilación del Sur, Oscilación Decadal del Pacífico, Oscilación Multidecadal del Atlántico e Índices de la Severidad de Sequía de Palmer. Los resultados mostraron que fue posible la reconstrucción de la precipitación de noviembre-abril y el caudal medio noviembre-agosto a partir de la serie de madera temprana con ecuaciones verificadas y validadas: Precipitación = -271.538 + 447.764*(índice de madera temprana), (r = 0.85, n = 49, p < 0.0001) y caudal medio = 5.123 + 0.623*log10(índice de madera temprana), (r = 0.68, n = 46, p < 0.001). Excepto por la Oscilación Multidecadal del Atlántico, todos los fenómenos globales mostraron correlación significativa con la información de los anillos de crecimiento. Este estudio confirma que los bosques de P. menziesii de la Sierra Madre Occidental son altamente sensibles al clima, lo que se refleja en la anchura de anillos de crecimiento y a su vez en la variabilidad del caudal medio de la cuenca. Por lo anterior se debe aprovechar el potencial de este tipo de trabajos para prever los cambios en la disponibilidad de recursos hídricos, así como ampliar su uso en la valoración de servicios ambientales hidrológicos.
