Ring Width and Ring Diameter as Functions of Ring Number in Suppressed Maples and Oaks

Ring Width and Ring Diameter as Functions of Ring Number in Suppressed Maples and Oaks

Phipps showed that the cross-sectional area of successive tree rings in suppressed red maples and chestnut oaks, sampled at three-foot intervals above the base, is approximately constant. I show that this invariance in cross-sectional area is consistent with ring width varying as the inverse square...
