This paper integrates geomorphological analyses, instrumental measurements and dendrochronological approaches in assessing a large, reactivated landslide system on the southern piedmont of Monte Sirino (southern Italy). The landslide system

This study examines the use of dendrochronological crossdating to determine the dates of death of dead-standing coniferous trees in subalpine forests in the Colorado Rocky Mountains. The objectives were: to evaluate the feasibility of crossdating

Dendrochronological analysis of fossil wood from Two Creeks, Wisconsin, reveals that the Two Creekan Interstade lasted at least 252 yr. The sites crossdated by tree rings cover an area of about 970 km2. AMS determinations from the beginning and end
Dendrokronologian menetelmiä ja sovellutuksia. (Methods and applications of dendrochronology)
Dendrochronology, which studies tree rings for various purposes, has undergone rapid development in the past two decades. This may be attributed to the emergence of high-speed computers and the increase in interdisciplinary and international
cooperation. Dendrochronological research has expanded its geographical coverage, widened its scope and refined its approaches. This article attempts to introduce the fundamentals of this burgeoning science, dealing with a wide range of methods
The aims of this paper are : 1) to develop a methodology based on dendrochronology to estimate gully erosion rates; 2) to apply this method to gully sites selected in the Guadalentin basin in southeast Spain. The method is developed for Pinus
halepensis (Allepo pine), which is, from a dendrochronological point of view, the most thoroughly studied species in the Mediterranean region, and for 3 species with a regenerative capacity of their roots, such as Prunus dulcis (Almond tree) and Salix alba L
Floodplain dynamics of a wandering river, dendrochronology of the Morice River, British Columbia, Canada
Dendrochronological techniques are used to develop a history of flood occurrence and relative stage for the middle section of the Morice River based on flood scars, bank under cutting dates and tree establishment dates on fluvial features. During
) the production of reaction wood even in apparently undisturbed trees and ii) the usefulness of border plants for dating past events. Different dendroecological indicators were investigated. The results confirm the possibility of applying dendrochronological
Dendrochronology and lichenometry : colonization, growth rates and dating of geomorphological events on the east side of the North Patagonian Icefield, Chile
vary widely due to differences in micro-environment. It demonstrates how dendrochronology and lichenometry can be used together in an assessment of each other's colonization and growth rates, and then cross-correlated to provide a supportive dating
Reconstruction of modern debris flow activity in the arctic environment with the use of dwarf shrubs (south-western Spitsbergen) – a new dendrochronological approach

The aim of the paper is to show the potential of tundra dwarf shrubs in dendrochronological reconstructions of debris flow activity in the High Arctic. Wood anatomy characteristics of shrubs, such as : the number of growth rings in collected
of intensification in debris flow activity with the use of dendrochronology and dwarf shrubs, and with the one-year precision. The comparison of the time of debris flow occurrence with meteorological data, may, in future, allow determining the conditions of debris
Contribution to understanding the historical evolution of meandering rivers using dendrochronological methods : example of the Mała Panew River in southern Poland

The inflence of climate associated with El Niño/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) events on tree growth in the central Colorado Front Range is investigated through the analysis of two high altitude tree-ring chronologies. Dendrochronological techniques
The A. shows that it is possible to conduct a frequency analysis with dendrochronological methods by determining and dating the various growth responses of trees growing on debris flow cones, which have been buried by debris flows. The most reliable
Detail geological and dendrochronological study of the Grabie gravel pit is presented. This site illustrates the existence of age differences between the alluvia (19 c.) and the inserted black oaks with dates cf c. 3 000 BP. The fall of tree trunks
