Tree Ring Chronology For Baraii River In Russia

NOAA's Paleoclimatology archive provides a tree-ring chronology from the Baraii River region in Russia, Eastern Europe. The data covers 277 years, from 236 to -41 calendar years before present (BP). This study was published by the NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information in 1991.

Use Cases

• Reconstruct past temperature or precipitation anomalies using the tree-ring width chronology as a climate proxy.
• Calibrate the chronology against known climate events using the provided calendar years before present (BP) time series.
• Analyze growth patterns and environmental stress from the tree-ring parameters for the specific geographic location in Russia.

Strengths

• Time series covers a specific 277-year period (236 to -41 BP).
• Data originates from the authoritative NOAA NCEI World Data Service for Paleoclimatology.

Limitations

• Dataset is temporally stale, last updated in 1991.
• Specific parameters, sample size (row count), and measurement details are not provided in the description.
