Branch Rings, Thinned Rings, Tree Enveloping Rings [PDF]

open access: yesIsrael Journal of Mathematics, 2005
We develop the theory of ``branch algebras'', which are infinite-dimensional associative algebras that are isomorphic, up to taking subrings of finite codimension, to a matrix ring over themselves. The main examples come from groups acting on trees. In

Statistical age determination of tree rings. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Dendrochronology, the study of annual rings formed by trees and woody plants, has important applications in research of climate and environmental phenomena of the past.

Solar superstorm of AD 774 recorded subannually by Arctic tree rings [PDF]

open access: yesNature 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.

Nonannual tree rings in a climate-sensitive Prioria copaifera chronology in the Atrato River, Colombia. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol 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.

Superellipse Equation Describing the Geometries of Abies alba Tree Rings [PDF]

open access: yesPlants
Our previous study using 41 tree rings of one Abies alba Mill. disc indicated that the superellipse equation can accurately fit its tree-ring shape. This study further used the superellipse equation (xan+yβn=1 ) to model the geometries of 1090 tree rings

A rapid cosmic-ray increase in BC 3372-3371 from ancient buried tree rings in China. [PDF]

open access: yesNat 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.

Energetic impact of reconstructed debris flow on the intensity and duration of growth disturbances in tree rings

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

Trees and valuation rings [PDF]

open access: yesTransactions of the American Mathematical Society, 2000
Let \(D\) be a division algebra, finite dimensional over its centre \(F\). The set \(B\) of valuation rings (not necessarily invariant) in \(D\), regarded as a graph, forms a rooted tree (with the maximal element \(D\) as root). The authors ask whether every finite rooted tree can be realized in this way.

Olive tree-ring problematic dating: a comparative analysis on Santorini (Greece). [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS 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

Synchrotron-based X-ray microscopy for assessing elements distribution and speciation in mangrove tree-rings

open access: yesResults in Chemistry, 2021
Micro-X-ray fluorescence (μ-XRF) spectroscopy has been used for dendrochemistry as a high spatial resolution, multi-elemental and non-destructive technique.
