Along an altitudinal transect 141 spruces have been investigated to find out whether pollution has affected cambial activity indicated by changes in tree-ring width maximum latewood density and a changing growth response to climate. Under severe pollution impact a decline in both tree-ring width and maximum density was apparent. Correlation and multiple regression analyses of growth and climate point to a reduced length of the growth period in the last 2 decades. A possible relation to pollution impact is discussed. Norway spruce tree ring latewood density I pollution climate Resume Croissance de répicéa commun Picea abies L Karst dans les monts Krkonose determination par la mesure de la largeur des cemes et de la densité du bois. Les peuplements d epicea common Picea abies L Karst situés à proximité de la limite altitudinale des arbres dans les monts Krkonose République tchèque sont affectes par la pollution atmosphérique. Un échantillon de 141 arbres a été sélectionné le long fun gradient altitudinal pour examiner I effet de la pollution sur I acti-vité cambiale par le biais des variations de la largeur des cemes de croissance de la densité maximale du bois final ainsi que de la réponse de ces 2 paramètres au climat. Les niveaux élevés de pollution sont associés à une baisse de la largeur des cernes de croissance ainsi que de la densité maximale. Des analyses de correlation et des regressions multiples
