Dendropedagogy: Teaching Botany, Ecology and Statistical Principles through Tree-Ring Studies.

Develops a simple tree-ring laboratory to demonstrate the basics of dendrochronology. Provides two upper-level laboratory exercises primarily intended to demonstrate the specific dendrochronology subdisciplines of dendroclimatology and dendroecology. Suggests using the exercises separately or in unison as part of a multidisciplinary capstone approach to an undergraduate program. (KHR)
