When you have a look at tree rings on a stump, you can have a lot of philosophical questions.

I had one very real one: Why does all my body hurt after cutting down trees? 😂

The history of a tree, shown in annual rings, fungal zone lines, dry rot, moss. New blog post: wanderinweeta.blogspot.com/202 #VancouverIsland #Trees #Fungus #TreeRings #Moss

A recently cut tree trunk. The cross-section shows different zones: moss on the outside, a narrow black line of bark, then brown, then a wide yellow band, then more brown, then the central part, an orangey brown. There is a section of dry rot, dark and full of holes. And around the yellow band, thin black lines outline darker zones.

"Determining the degree to which shifting drought conditions around the world are attributable to natural hydroclimatic variability and how much they are caused by climate change is a complicated task. Scientists often use complex computer models to simulate past climate variability and to identify unprecedented drought conditions".

"A study tracking rainfall patterns over thousands of years has found that more arid periods coincided with ages of dynastic turmoil in China—highlighting a historical link between climate stress and social unrest".

It's Official: Summer of 2023 was the Hottest in 2,000 Years. 🌇

I’m ready for summer, but if this year is anything like last year, it’s going to be a doozy. In fact, tree ring data confirms the summer of 2023 in the Northern Hemisphere was the hottest in over 2,000 years, according to a new study released this week.

Daily global ocean temperatures were the warmest ever recorded for over a year straight. Levels of sea ice hit new lows. And of course, the year saw the highest global average temperatures since record-keeping began in 1850.Instrumental summer land temperatures (red) with the tree ring reconstruction mean (yellow).
[Source: Nature]The concentric rings inside a tree are evidence of the plant’s yearly growth cycles. Lighter colors correspond to quick growth over the spring and summer, while the darker rings correspond to the fall and winter. Count the pairs of light and dark rings, and you can tell how many years a tree has lived.

Does anyone know how this happens? At first I thought it might have been the imprint of some type of log grabbing machine but having looked closer the rings seem to follow the pattern. Interesting! Ideas anyone? #treerings #trees #mystery #nature

A photo of a tree which has been cut into logs. The photo shows the cross section of one of the logs, displaying its rings as usual but with an darker 8 pointed, star fish type imprint in the centre. I'm asking others if they know how this star fish type growth occurs.

Cool! What do you think, can I correlate annual rain sum in mm of near-by weather stations with the annual #d18O found in those #treerings? Several tree location have a near-by station in NOAA's GHCN network. The German tree is close to the Göttingen station 01691 in DWD opendata.dwd.de and reports since 1927 while the annual / summer tree d18O goes from 1776 to 1999.
Would just be nice to get a feel for d18O – for when I see #paleoclimate data from #stalagmites or other land-bound proxies.
There are intriguing papers on Mediterranean #drought in the Bronze age which use d18O from several caves all around the region. If I know which treering d18O in Spain means how much annual rain, I can translate the bronze age d18O from caves to rain sum, as well – what do you think?
