  • Tree Rings and Natural Hazards

    A State-of-Art

    Edición de Markus Stoffel, Michelle Bollschweiler, David R. Butler, Brian H. Luckman ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Dendrogeomorphology Beginnings and Futures: A Personal Reminiscence My early forays into dendrogeomorphology occurred long before I even knew what that word meant. I was working as a young geoscientist in the 1960s and early 1970s on a problem with slope movements and deformed vegetation. At the same time, unknown to me, Jouko Alestalo in Finland was doing something similar. Both of us had seen ... Leer más
