Journal ArticleDOI
Reconstructing Summer Temperatures in Northern Fennoscandinavia Back to A.D. 1700 Using Tree-Ring Data from Scots Pine
TL;DR: In this article, the authors make estimates of mean July-August temperatures for northern Fennoscandinavia using ring width and maximum latewood density chronologies of Pinus sylvestris L. (Scots pine) as predictors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Climate reconstruction from tree rings: Part 2, spatial reconstruction of summer mean sea‐level pressure patterns over Great Britain
TL;DR: In this paper, a methodology for the reconstruction of spatial climate patterns over the British Isles using tree rings is presented, where the predictors are ring widths from a network of 14 oak tree-ring chronologies in Britain and northern France.
Journal ArticleDOI
Climate reconstruction from tree rings: Part 1, basic methodology and preliminary results for England
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used tree-ring widths of 14 sites (13 in the British Isles and one in France) to reconstruct spatially averaged temperature and rainfall for England.
Journal ArticleDOI
Climatic signals in British Isles tree-ring chronologies
TL;DR: In this article, the authors report evidence that tree-ring chronologies from sites in the British Isles will provide suitable proxy records for the reconstruction of historical temporal and spatial variation of climate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Riverflow reconstruction from tree rings in southern Britain
TL;DR: In this article, the stability of the regression models is verified using independent data and the reconstructions are more reliable for low flow events; a finding which is potentially useful for water resource planning.
