Progress in dendroclimatic studies of mountain pine in northern Thailand
New data added to the existing tree-ring width chronologies of mountain pine (Pinus kesiya and Pinus merkusii) result in a total of seven chronologies for these species for Thailand. The oldest (1647-1993) is from a P. merkusii site at Phu Kradung, north central Thailand. An analysis of the three lo...
