Dendrochronology of Bristlecone Pine in East-Central Nevada

Terminal Report submitted to Regional Forester, U.S. Forest Service, Ogden, Utah / In accordance with a cooperative agreement between the Forest Service and the Laboratory of Tree-Ring Research at University of Arizona for a joint inventory and dendrochronological study of bristlecone pine. / In the Administrative Study Plan, as set forth 10 August 1966 and approved 16 August 1966, it was proposed that a joint inventory and dendrochronological study of bristlecone pine, Pinus aristata Engelm., be conducted by the Forest Service and the University of Arizona on the Snake, Mt. Moriah, Ward Mountain, and the Schell Creek divisions of the Humboldt National Forest in Nevada. Through a closely integrated inventory and dendrochronological program designed to take full advantage of the unique scientific resources available at the University of Arizona, the proposed study was expected to yield maximum information on the age, volume, growth, extent, and area of bristlecone pine and to provide authoritative data for interpretive and future planning uses. Dr. J. O. Klemmedson of the Department of Watershed Management, for the inventory phase, and Dr. C. W. Ferguson of the Laboratory of Tree -Ring Research, for the dendrochronological phase, were co- investigators of the project.
