What is the subject of Dendrochronology?
top Dendrochronology studies the growth of trees and how it is linked to climate and the surrounding environment, enabling the past climatic changes that were reflected in the tree-ring growth patterns to be dated. It could be said to be the science of dating wood specimens by examining the annual growth rings from a parent tree. The morphology of the rings reflects the conditions prevailing during the life of the tree. The climate, weather, position of the tree and the environment influence the growth and morphology of its annual rings, and consequently their width and density.
