Tree Rings Tell a Tale of Climates PastMarissa Fessenden
As requested, this selected review draws mainly on our own recent research—some published, some unpublished—to demonstrate how the interpretation of tree-ring records like other proxy climate data is, to some extent, a compromise and may be subject to recent confounding influences. For wider ...

“These are four shallow faults that had shown evidence of having ruptured roughly 1,000 years ago in a cluster of earthquakes called the millennial cluster,” Black said. For example, “a 25-foot cliff was thrusted into the air from west Seattle out to Puget Sound. It also triggered a ...
Do you know something about tree rings (年轮) ? Do you know they can tell us what the weather was like sometimes even hundreds of years ago? A tree will grow well in a climate (气候) with lots of sun shines and rainfall (雨量) . And little sunshine or rain fall will limit (限制...
An unusual northern rātā tree that looks like it is striding across an empty field has been crowned New Zealand's Tree of the Year. The giant plant, which looks strikingly similar to an Ent from "The Lord of the Rings," is centuries...

The number of such records are extremely rare and can be counted on one hand [12,13,14]. The maximum length of a tree-ring anomaly series is a 5000-year span [15]. A large amount of well-preserved ancient (sub-fossil) wood from the Holocene age can be found in some subarctic ...
Summary Large-scale climatic variability associated with the El Ni帽o-Southern Oscillation phenomenon is recorded by tree-rings of the semiarid United States and Mexico, coral bands from the Galapagos Islands, glacial ice layers from a Peruvian ice cap, and varved sediments in the Santa Barbara ...
Because direct records of past forest mortality are hardly available, growth release in surviving trees is usually considered as a proxy of forest mortality (Veblen et al., 1991; Axelson et al., 2009). Although tree rings on the TP have been widely studied for reconstruction of past climate ...
