∙ 15y agoTree-ring dating. It is the science of determining the age of trees by counting the rings of growth across the trunk of the tree. In general terms, a tree adds a new ring or layer of growth each year.
From this information it is possible to identify, and date, periods of climatic change.
By matching the 'overlapping' ring patterns from trees of different time periods it is also possible to date events well beyond the dates that can be determined from the study of just one tree.
Bristlecone pines are favourite trees for dendrochronolgists, because they live a very, very long time!
