Abstract

A study was undertaken to provide information on interpreting the climatic significance of fossil wood. Wood samples collected from an area of nearly pristine forest were analysed with respect to occurrence of rings and ring-porosity, vessel diameter and density, vessel size distribution and other...

Abstract

Investigations of the remains of 19th century buildings showed that there were two main areas from which timber was imported for construction: the Middle East (Cedrus libani, Pinus nigra, P. brutia, Abies spp.) and Western Europe (Abies alba, Cedrus atlantica, Pinus sylvestris, Larix decidua, Picea ...

Abstract

Dendrochronological studies were undertaken in order to construct a Pinus nigra chronology for the area and to date the 'stue' (locks for river transport) on the Tralbe river. The analysis made it possible to establish a mean chronology for the Eastern Alps which can be synchronized with master...

Abstract

Five stands of Pinus monophylla (single-needle pinyon pine) from east-central Nevada were sampled and analyzed using dendrochronological methods to detect the effects of climate and copper smelter effluent on ring-width growth. Tree-ring chronologies were developed for two pollution sites near the...

Abstract

Dendrochronologists have long used, and continue to seek, old forest and woodland stands of suitable species for the derivation of tree-ring chronologies. Beginning in the southwest and intermountain regions of the U.S., the discipline has the objective of completing a grid of sampling stations in...

Abstract

The feasibility of reconstructing paleoclimatic variables with chronologies developed from living trees merged with specimens from archaeological - historical contexts is examined for the southeastern Colorado Plateau. The necessity for numerically modeling the merged time series during years of...

Abstract

From excavations of the Alvastra pile dwellings in southern Sweden it was possible to give relative datings of periods of activity in the construction, ranging over 42 yr. All piles were taken from the same forest which started to grow about 40 yr earlier, in an open landscape, probably a moraine...

Abstract

Time series were constructed for vessel size (mean of 40) and ring width of 2 oak trees and 8 beech trees from 4 different sites in Germany and Austria. Climate influenced yr-to-yr variation in vessel size more than that of ring width. On the basis of these results a reconstruction of the climate...
