Medieval drought in the upper Colorado River Basin

TL;DR: The most extreme low-frequency feature of the new reconstruction, covering A.D. 762-2005, is a hydrologic drought in the mid 1100s, characterized by a decrease of more than 15% in mean annual flow averaged over 25 years, and by the absence of high annual flows over a longer period of about six decades.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recent unprecedented tree-ring growth in bristlecone pine at the highest elevations and possible causes

TL;DR: Great Basin bristlecone pine (Pinus longaeva) at 3 sites in western North America near the upper elevation limit of tree growth showed ring growth in the second half of the 20th century that was greater than during any other 50-year period in the last 3,700 years.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reconstructed temperature and precipitation on a millennial timescale from tree-rings in the southern colorado plateau, u.s.a.

TL;DR: In this paper, two independent calibrated and verified climate reconstructions from ecologically contrasting tree-ring sites in the southern Colorado Plateau, U.S.A. reveal decadal-scale climatic trends during the past two millennia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bristlecone pine tree rings and volcanic eruptions over the last 5000 yr

TL;DR: In this paper, a regional chronology of upper forest border bristlecone pine (Pinus longaeva and Pinus aristata) over the last 5000 yr coincides with known large explosive volcanic eruptions and/or ice core signals of past eruptions.
