Tree Ring Chronology From Washington State For Paleoclimate Analysis

Washington State tree ring data from the NOAA NCEI World Data Service for Paleoclimatology. The chronology covers 175 years, from 150 to -25 calendar years before present. This archived study was published by NOAA NCEI in 1975.

Use Cases

• Reconstruct past temperature or precipitation using annual tree-ring width measurements.
• Calibrate climate models by comparing the chronology with known historical climate events.
• Analyze growth trends and anomalies within the specified 175-year period.

Strengths

• Data spans a continuous 175-year period for climate trend analysis.
• Sourced from the authoritative NOAA NCEI World Data Service for Paleoclimatology.

Limitations

• Temporal coverage ends 25 years before present (1950 CE), lacking recent decades.
• Specific sample size, site details, and measurement parameters are not provided in the input.
