Question 2

  A) The width of annual tree rings indicates the climatic conditions; wider rings suggest favorable conditions, whereas narrower rings suggest harsher conditions.
  B) Dendrochronology is primarily used in the tropical regions, where one can easily correlate a tree species' age with the climatic conditions there.
  C) Because most trees only live 60 to 100 years, dendrochronology can only serve as a climate record for recent history and are primarily used to supplement instrument data.
