Nonannual tree rings in a climate-sensitive Prioria copaifera chronology in the Atrato River, Colombia [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2017 In temperate climates, tree growth dormancy usually ensures the annual nature of tree rings, but in tropical environments, determination of annual periodicity can be more complex.

Solar superstorm of AD 774 recorded subannually by Arctic tree rings [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2018 Tree rings retain information of sudden variations of ancient radiocarbon (14C) content, however the origin and exact timing of these events often remain uncertain.

A rapid cosmic-ray increase in BC 3372-3371 from ancient buried tree rings in China [PDF]
Nat Commun, 2017 Cosmic rays interact with the Earth's atmosphere to produce $^{14}$C, which can be absorbed by trees. Therefore, rapid increases of $^{14}$C in tree rings can be used to probe previous cosmic-ray events.

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023 A rare study on the quantitative relationship between the energetic impact of debris flows on the intensity and duration of growth disturbances of tree rings was carried out, partly due to a lack of feasible approaches and detailed field evidence.

Olive tree-ring problematic dating: a comparative analysis on Santorini (Greece). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Olive trees are a classic component of Mediterranean environments and some of them are known historically to be very old. In order to evaluate the possibility to use olive tree-rings for dendrochronology, we examined by various methods the reliability of

Pointer years in the growth of beech trees of the NP "Đerdap" area [PDF]
Glasnik Šumarskog Fakulteta: Univerzitet u Beogradu, 2014 This paper defines pointer years and years with distinctive tree rings in the growth of beech in 3 sites (ecological units-EU) of the area of Đerdap, in order to observe the reactions of trees to the effects of various factors of growth.

Environmental Research Letters, 2023 Tree rings can reveal long-term environmental dynamics and drivers of tree growth. However, individual ecological drivers of tree growth need to be disentangled from the effects of other co-occurring environmental and climatic conditions in tree rings to

Radiocarbon and wood anatomy as complementary tools for generating tree-ring records in Bolivia
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 The science of tropical dendrochronology is now emerging in regions where tree-ring dating had previously not been considered possible. Here, we combine wood anatomical microsectioning techniques and radiocarbon analysis to produce the first tree-ring ...
