This course introduces students to dendrochronology¿the science of dating and interpreting annual growth rings in trees¿with a focus on dendro-ecology. Students will explore how tree rings reveal forest dynamics, disturbance history, and management implications. Through lectures, labs, and hands-on fieldwork at Hobson Memorial Forest, students will learn how to collect and analyze tree-ring data to answer ecological and applied forest management questions. Prerequisite(s): None.
