Sample Collection and Preparation for Annual and Intra-annual Tree-Ring Isotope Chronologies

open access: yes, 2022
AbstractThis chapter provides guidance for conducting studies based on stable isotope measurements in tree rings to infer past and present climate variability and ecophysiology. Balancing theoretical perspectives of stable isotope variations recorded in tree rings, intended research applications (paleoclimate or ecophysiology) and resource limitations,
