First quantitative reconstruction of air temperature for the warm period in the Caucasus based on dendrochronological data

The longest continuous time series of meteorological observations in the Caucasus comprise a period slightly exceeding a century. Of principal importance for predicting decadal and secular climatic variations is reconstructing maximally extended time series of past climatic events. In some areas, wh...

Summary:The longest continuous time series of meteorological observations in the Caucasus comprise a period slightly exceeding a century. Of principal importance for predicting decadal and secular climatic variations is reconstructing maximally extended time series of past climatic events. In some areas, where the growth of annual rings in trees closely associates with some of the climatic parameters, this problem is solvable based on the dendrochronological approach.
