Advanced Methods – Tree-Ring Analysis – Applied Dendroecology (TRA)5 ECTS
(englische Bezeichnung: Advanced Methods – Tree-Ring Analysis – Applied Dendroecology)

Lectures:

• • Advanced Methods MSc: Advanced Climate Data Analysis
    (PG Masterseminar, 2 SWS, Thomas Mölg, Tue, 10:00 - 13:30, 00.133 CIP-Raum 1)

Empfohlene Voraussetzungen:

n/s

Inhalt:

Selected methods related to the processing of tree-ring data

Lernziele und Kompetenzen:

The students

• understand the major principles of tree ring research, wood anatomy and wood formation;

• are able to prepare wood samples for macroscopic and microscopic analyses;

• know how to measure various wood parameters, to evaluate quality of measurements and to synchronize and date tree-ring data series;

• learn how to relate tree-ring data to environmental variables

• understand advanced methods of data processing.

A series of practical exercises builds on each other throughout the course. Results of these exercises will develop from individual contributions and small-group work, and from a discussion with the whole group. Course attendance is therefore compulsory.

Literatur:

Will be provided at the beginning of the course.
