Summary
Abstract: A new temperature reconstruction based on maximum density (MXD) from Tornetrask in northern Sweden, now covering the period AD 500?2004. By including data from relatively young trees for the most recent period, a previously noted decline in recent MXD is eliminated. Non-climatological growth trends in the data are removed using Regional Curve Standardization (RCS), thus producing an MXD chronology ... View entire text
