233 to -40 calendar years before present of tree ring width measurements from Russia in Eastern Europe. The dataset is a paleoclimatology study archived by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information under the World Data Service. It was last updated in 1990.
Use Cases
- Reconstruct past climate variables like temperature or precipitation by analyzing the tree ring width time-series.
- Calibrate climate models using the 273-year chronology of tree ring parameters from Russia.
- Study forest growth responses to historical environmental events using the dated ring sequences.
Strengths
- Provides a 273-year chronology spanning from 233 to -40 calendar years BP.
- Archived by the authoritative NOAA NCEI World Data Service for Paleoclimatology.
Limitations
