Dendrochronology 0.0 / 5 ? GeographyDating past eventsUniversityOther Created by: LF18Created on: 09-04-22 10:52 53674821109 Across 1. Dating of individual tree-rings from master chronologies allows radiocarbon "age" to be compared to what timescale? (11, 9) 6. An example of an incremental dating technique, based on annual incremental growth - in this case "cones" of wood added, which in a cross-section through a tree-trunk look like a barcode of thick and thin annual layers (16) 7. What can be converted to temperature or precipitation indices using transfer functions based on growth/climate relationships known from living trees (4, 6) 9. When a tree ring signature is not linked to a living tree. (8, 10) 10. What is inversely related to the strength of the "solar wind" and not constant? (6, 3, 4) Down 2. In which type of climate do thick rings represent humid summers? (3, 8) 3. In which type of climate do thick rings represent warm summers? (4, 8) 4. What method can be used to date individual rings? (3, 6) 5. The science that uses tree rings to study present climate and reconstruct past climate (17) 8. A technique that ensures each individual tree ring is assigned its exact year of formation. This is achieved by matching patterns of wide and narrow rings between cores from the same tree, and between trees from different locations. (5, 6)
