ABSTRACT:
A method of dendrochronology. A method for determining the age or authenticity of timber structures based on a correlation of the relative growth patterns of the woods used in the timber structure and the wood in samples taken from mature living trees on one or more sites in the general vicinity of the timber structure. The method is also useful for dendrochronological studies of specific tree species and long range weather and climatic studies of a region.
