Hi Mr. McMahon's 5th period class!
How do you graph dendrochronology? I am not sure what you mean because that really depends on what you are looking at. If you have a slice of a tree with visible, measurable rings then you could find the mean width of all the rings in a sample and then figure out how much each ring is above or below the average and put that into a graph. That might tell you which years had more rainfall and which years had less rainfall. I hope I have answered your question. Sorry it took so long for me to find this post. I have been having trouble getting my questions emailed to me. Thanks for taking the time to come to the board and ask a question. By the way, that is a strange question to ask a person on a ship doing oceanographic research... Are you studying tree rings right now or is Mr. McMahon just trying to give me a hard time? Sincerely, Mrs. Barlow |
