In press 2013. Is an Epic Pluvial Masking the Water Insecurity of the Greater New York City Region? Journal of Climate, Early Online Release 2012 doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.1175/JCLI-D-11-00723.1 Notes: Most of this collection of LITU (Liriodendron tulipifera) raw ring widths was made by N. Pederson on rolling sandstone, near West Milford, NJ. These data were collected for a dendroecological study of southern temperate trees growing at or near a northern range margin. While the oldest trees in the stand were targeted, the goal of field sampling was to collect a range of existing tree ages within the stand. The stand in which these trees are sampled generally has shallow soil depth, although there are areas with pockets of deep soil. The forest was dense at the time of sampling and is mostly old-growth forest; some portions of this forest has evidence of logging, though. Because of this, detrending of these raw data should be conducted with closed-canopy or forest interior conditions and forest disturbance in mind.
