SFR 526 - Dendrochronology This course covers practical aspects of dendrochronology (tree-ring analysis) as they apply forested settings. Tree-ring patterns represent a biological archive, which when properly interpreted, can help us understand how past environmental conditions have structured present-day forests. The goal of the course is to present concepts and methods of dendrochronology in sufficient depth for students to address climate-growth relationships, past disturbances, and forest productivity. The course includes lectures, laboratory exercises, and discussions.
Prerequisites & Notes SFR 507 (Forest Ecology), BIO 509 (Experimental design) or equivalent, or instructor’s permission.
