- Description:
- Across North America, drought reconstructions from tree-rings exhibit major regional differences in seasonality. These differences have a strong influence on the connections between tree rings and remote forcings like ENSO and the PDO, and must be considered when comparing tree-ring estimates against other paleoclimatic records.
