Tree Rings, Art, Archeology, Proceedings of the Conference

In 2010 IRPA-KIK organized the Tree Rings, Art, Archaeology conference. The various articles gathered in the proceedings reflect the practices of fifteen European countries. The first objective of the conference was to review the notable advances over the last ten years. The second aim, focused more on the future, was to bring together dendrochronologists and other players in the field - historians, archaeologists and art historians - to discuss the 'Good use of dendrochronology'. The articles successively explore the different facets of the dendrochronological prism.

Fishing Vest

Don't have enough pockets for all your supplies while coring trees? Invest in a fishing vest! These have multiple pockets and can store items such as straws, dbh tape, flagging, and sharpening kit, as well as first aid supplies. Larger pockets in the vest can also be used to carry small-sized cross sections!

Don't know where to begin looking? Well, you've come to the right place. I realize that the enormous amount of information on these web pages may makes finding items of interest to you very difficult. This index should contain the item, concept, keyword, or phrase that interests you. Keep in mind that these pages only show you where in these tree-ring web pages you can find the information, and you'll be placed at the proper location. They will not link you to the actual web site. If you can't find what you're looking for, try another word as I've tried to cross-list everything when appropriate. If that doesn't work, write me at the address at the bottom of the page and I'll see if I can help.
