Red spruce tree-ring widths and densities in eastern North America as indicators of past climate

Auteur :
CONKEY, L. E.

Description :
Dendroclimatological studies in eastern North America are enhanced by the use of long-time series of maximum latewood densities determined by x-ray densitometry. Maximum density and width series of Picea rubens Sarg. from high elevations in Maine are used to reconstruct up to 310 yr of past spring temperatures at nearby climate stations.
