Investigating Forest Inventory And Analysis-Collected Tree-Ring Data From Utah As A Proxy For Historical Climate, R. Justin Derose, Shih-Yu (Simon) Wang, John D. Shaw

Wasatch Dendroclimatology Research

Increment cores collected as part of the periodic inventory in the Intermountain West were examined for their potential to represent growth and be a proxy for climate (precipitation) over a large region (Utah). Standardized and crossdated time-series created from pinyon pine (n=249) and Douglas-fir (n=274) increment cores displayed spatiotemporal patterns in growth differences both between species and by region within Utah. However, the between-species interrelationship of growth was strong over much of the state and indicated both species respond similarly to climate variations. Indeed, pinyon pine and Douglas-fir exhibited a significant and spatially coherent response to instrumental precipitation data. Previous …
