Growth Dynamics of Conifer Tree Rings
Each tree ring contains an image of the time when the ring formed, projected onto the ring''s size, structure, and composition. Tree rings thus are natural archives of past environments, and contain records of past climate. While dendrochronologists have investigated the impact of climate on tree-ring growth by empirical–statistical methods, this volume presents a process-based model complementing...
