Fennoscandian summers from ad 500: temperature changes on short and long timescales
Quantitative estimates of 1480 years of summer temperatures in northern Fennoscandia have previously been derived from continuous treering records from northern Sweden. Here we show the results of… Expand
Model evaluation for reconstructing the oxygen isotopic composition in precipitation from tree ring cellulose over the last century
- W. Anderson, S. Bernasconi, J. McKenzie, M. Saurer, F. Schweingruber
- Geology

The oxygen isotope composition of tree rings is controlled by many factors, including temperature, amount of precipitation, and changes in relative humidity. In this study we present a modified… Expand
The climatic significance of δ13C in subalpine spruces (Lötschental, Swiss Alps)
- K. Treydte, G. H. Schleser, F. Schweingruber, M. Winiger
- Environmental Science
