Description :
Twentyfour tree-ring chronologies of various tree-species (Picea, Abies, Larix, Juniperus) from sites near the upper timbelinein eastern Tibet were established. A new classification of pointer intervals is presented, distinguishing between different kinds of signatures in a tree-ring series and amount of growth change in relation to the previous year. The various types of signatures can be related to meteorological events like cold winters and summers, summer drought or to recreation reactions after years of reduced growth. Based on far-distance correlations and signature analysis regions of similar tree-growth are mapped out.
