Unlocking the archive of the past - The recording of climate extremes in trees

Dr. Marina Gurskaya (Russische Akademie der Wissenschaften)

Tree rings keep a lot of information about environmental conditions in the past. Natural extremes are written in annual rings as anomalies of the ring structure. Accordingly, study of different anomalies of rings helps to reveal and reconstruct various natural accidents, to estimate frequency of repeatability and intensity of extreme natural and in particular climatic events.

Marina Gurskaya (*1973) ist Wissenschaftliche Mitarbeiterin für Dendrochronologie an der Russischen Akademie der Wissenschaften, Jekaterinburg. Seit Oktober 2007 ist sie Fellow am Alfried Krupp Wissenschaftskolleg und forscht zum Thema "Changing Climate: Is the Frequency of Climate Extremes increasing?"
