Dendrochronology is the scientific discipline that determines the timing of past climate conditions, environmental changes, and historical events through the analysis of tree rings.Tree rings can be defined as annual growth bands of variable width, depending on the availability of water. Thus, the development of each tree ring is unique. The “fingerprints” collected by scientists from trees in different parts of the world enable comparisons that shed light on past climates and ecosystems, and ev

Dendrochronology is the scientific discipline based on the analysis of annual growth rings in tree trunks. This method was developed to interpret the environmental conditions recorded by trees over time and provides the ability to assign absolute dates to historical events. Trees record the climatic and environmental conditions of their surroundings by forming growth rings of varying thickness each year. These rings are regarded as natural archives that preserve biophysical data for specific tim
