Laboratory of Tree-Ring Research date symbols: B = bark is present. vv = there is no way of estimating how far the last ring is from the true outside; many rings may be lost. + = one or a few rings may be missing near the outside whose presence or absence cannot be determined because the series does not extend far enough to provide adequate cross dating. |
