Summary
Abstract: This data consists of the Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO)
reconstruction based on tree ring chronologies.

Climate in the North Pacific and North American sectors has
experienced interdecadal shifts during the 20th century. A network of
recently developed tree-ring chronologies for Southern and Baja
California extends the instrumental record, and reveals decadal-scale
variability back to AD ... View entire text
