Julietta North Tree Ring Chronology For Russian Climate Reconstruction

403 to -44 calendar years before present of tree ring width measurements from a site in Russia, Eastern Europe. The dataset is archived by the NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information under its World Data Service for Paleoclimatology. This study was last updated in 1994.

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 within the 403 to -44 BP time range.
• Analyze growth trends and extreme events recorded in the ring width series for ecological studies.
• Compare this Russian site's chronology with other ITRDB records to assess regional climate patterns.

Strengths

• Provides proxy climate data covering a 447-year period from 403 to -44 calendar years BP.
• Part of the authoritative International Tree-Ring Data Bank (ITRDB) collection curated by NOAA NCEI.

Limitations

• Data is temporally stale, with a last recorded update in 1994, potentially missing modern reanalysis.
• The single-site geographic focus on Julietta north, Russia limits broad spatial representativeness.
• Specific sample depth, measurement parameters, and potential measurement noise are not detailed in the provided metadata.
