Reconstruction of summer temperature for a Canadian High Arctic site from retrospective analysis of the dwarf shrub, Cassiope tetragona / Shelly A. Rayback, Gregory H.R. Henry.
Title: | Reconstruction of summer temperature for a Canadian High Arctic site from retrospective analysis of the dwarf shrub, Cassiope tetragona / Shelly A. Rayback, Gregory H.R. Henry. |
Author(s): | Rayback, Shelly A. Henry, Gregory H. R. |
Date: | 2006. |
In: | Arctic, Antarctic, and Alpine Research. (2006.), Vol. 38(2) (2006) |
Abstract: | Uses dendrochronological analysis of widespread evergreen shrub Cassiope tetragona to reconstruct average summer air temperature for Alexandra Fiord, Ellesmere Island, from 1895-1994. Reconstruction reveals increase in summer temperature from 1905 to early 1960s, cooling trend from mid-1960s to 1970s, and increase in temperature after 1980. Historical temperature patterns correspond well with those from other climate proxies from sites on Ellesmere and Devon Islands. |
