Description
Summary:This data set contains measures of growth ring widths of Siberian alder (Alnus viridis ssp. fruticosa) from along the Sagwon Bluffs, Alaska, USA that was used to address how alder respond to temperature overtime and how plant age impacts their climate sensitivity. There are six individual files. One, the growth ring width data from each cross-section or part taken from an individual Siberian alder. Two, a data set of the detrended chronology with climate data over the period of 1920-2017. Three, a data set of individual detrended secondary growth with temperature and age data over the period of 1977-2016. Four, a data set relating individual alder's first 30 years of growth to temperature and the time period it started growth in. Five, a data set of detrended growth from cross-sections taken from each Siberian alder, age class information, and temperature. Finally, a data set containing the number of ramets, nodule biomass per area, and nitrogen fixation rate.
