Description

This data set gives the pith offsets that match the ring widths for gp.rwl – a data set of ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa) from the Gus Pearson Natural Area (GPNA) in northern Arizona, USA. Data are further described by Biondi and Qeadan (2008) and references therein.

Usage

Format

A data.frame containing series IDs in column 1 (series) and the number of years between the beginning of that series in gp.rwl and the pith of the tree (pith.offset). This can be used together with the ring widths to calculate the cambial age of each ring.
