Abstract:
Tree cores and discs were collected during fieldwork in Yakutia in 2018 by scientists from Alfred Wegener Institute (AWI), Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research and University of Potsdam, Germany, The Institute for Biological problems of the Cryolithozone, Russian Academy of Sciences, Siberian branch, and The Institute of Natural Sciences, North-Eastern Federal University of Yakutsk, Yakutsk, Russia (Kruse et al., 2019). The samples were dried, sanded, digitized and further processed by identifying the ring layers end exporting the tree ring width for each year. The site chronologies were established by cross-dating all samples to each other, which helped coping with small ring sizes but especially with missing rings, and frost rings.
We processed samples of four species, Larix gmelinii (LAGM), Picea obovata (PIOB), Pinus sylvestris (PISY) and Pinus sibirica (PISI). These were recorded at a variety of locations:
LAGM from Lake Khamra sites EN18079, -80, -81, -83 (N59.974919° E112.958985°, N59.977106° E112.961379°, N59.970583° E112.987096°, N59.974714° E113.002874°)
PIOB from Lake Khamra sites EN18079, -81, -83 (59.974919° E112.958985°, 59.970583° E112.987096°, 59.974714° E113.002874°)
PISI from Lake Khamra sites EN18080-EN18083 (N59.977106° E112.961379°)
PISY from different sites between EN18061 (N62.076376° E129.618586°) and EN18077 (N61.892568° E114.288623°)
