ABOUT
The Center for Tree-Ring Science (CTRS) consists of faculty, staff, students, and facilities dedicated to the science of dendrochronology. Dendrochronology is the science associated with dating and interpretation of annual growth rings in trees which can inform a wide variety of disciplines and decision making. At CTRS, we specialize in using tree-rings to reconstruct past climate conditions, characterize historical fire regimes, study forest growth dynamics, date historic structures, and more.
