Climate change is expected to lead to higher temperatures in the Mediterranean region of northern California in the Sierra Nevada. Dendroclimatic studies typically focus on large, old trees, but there relatively limited understanding on how climatic sensitivity can vary with trees of different size ...

Dendrochronology, the study of tree-rings to help understand events of the past, is a growing body of research that has become well-established in scientific literature within the last century. Oklahoma is a distinct resource to dendrochronology as it exists at the eastern deciduous forest sand...

A brief and personal history of the development of dendrochronology in the Hudson Valley of New York in the 1970s and the quantitative reconstruction of climate from tree rings there is provided. Two people stand out in allowing that to happen. Marvin Stokes at the Laboratory of Tree-Ring Research...

The strength of dendrochronology is chronology. No other non-textual dating technique in the world provides the precision, accuracy, and resolution of dendrochronology. Indeed, dendrochronology is famous for dating prehistoric ruins, and Douglass' "Bridging the Gap" is still considered one of the...

The association between climate variability and episodic events, such as the antecedent moisture conditions prior to wildfire or the cooling following volcanic eruptions, is commonly assessed using Superposed Epoch Analysis (SEA). In SEA the epochal response is typically calculated as the average...

Multi-year drought and climate change can impact tree growth, especially in California's Mediterranean climate where growing season rainfall is limited or absent. Active forest restoration has the potential to mitigate climate impacts by reducing stand density and conversion towards more resilient...

Dendrochronologists regularly host conferences and workshops to share tree-ring research and new methodologies. Unfortunately, national and international scientific gatherings have also historically been events where some female researchers have experienced sexual harassment, discrimination, and...

The spotted lanternfly, Lycorma delicatula (White) (Hemiptera: Fulgoridae), was first detected in the United States in Berks County, Pennsylvania, in 2014. Native to China, this phloem-feeding planthopper threatens agricultural, ornamental, nursery, and timber industries in its invaded range...

This paper provides insight into ages and patterns of radial growth from mature trees at Martin Park Nature Center, Oklahoma County, Oklahoma. A total of 80 trees were sampled and crossdated using dendrochronology from the three most common genera at Martin Park Nature Center: Quercus, Celtis, and ...
