The importance of infrequent, high-intensity rainfall events for longleaf pine (Pinus palustris Mill.) radial growth and implications for dendroclimatic research

Tree-ring based precipitation reconstructions are beneficial in placing interannual variability in an historical context. However, absent specificity on what is being modeled (e.g., event type or rainfall intensity), similar rainfall totals inferred from reconstructions between different years imply...
