Fantastic teamwork with dendroclimate folks! It was fun sharing our work with families, especially kids. I was impressed by the curiosity and interest children show about climate and trees @utk-dendro.bsky.social @utkgeography.bsky.social
Looking forward to participate next year #CanYouDigIt

The kiddos, honorary tree-ringers Dimitris and Jordan, and I made some great progress on our drought tree cookie today! We made it from 1895-1927CE. Only 98 more years to go! #STEAM #DendroArtsnCrafts #PDSI @hydroclimp.bsky.social @utkgeography.bsky.social

The color of tree rings—especially the blue spectrum—can be used to reconstruct past climate. But the heartwood-sapwood color change complicates this technique since it's unrelated to climate. Our new paper tackles this problem: 🧪🧵https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1125786525000505

Our recent paper on droughts in the Po River gets an Editor's
highlight and is featured on Eos! We studied 1,000 years of droughts (1100-2100) from tree rings and climate models to understand how droughts manifest in the past, present, and future.
