Outline
We are just at the beginning - lab was found in 2009, although several activities in dendrochronological research had been realised before. We are focused on applications of dendrochronology in the field of Physical Geography (dating of mass vasting processes, dendroclimatology, tree-line dynamics).


Equipments
Increment drills, saws, TimeTable measuring device, microscopes Arsenal SZ11-ST, IntracoMicro L2030, sliding microtome G.S.L.1, software PAST4, OSM, ArsStan, COFECHA ...
