New theoretic-based approach of quantifying climatic influences on tree-ring width. By Guangqi Li

Posted on
22nd March 2019

The narrow-wide pattern of tree-ring width records past climate change, which makes tree-ring width a major archive for the palaeo climate reconstruction, especially for the last millennium. To use tree-ring…Read More >
