Dendrochronology in biology

Hello everyone, and welcome to today's lecture on dendrochronology in biology. Have you ever wondered how scientists can determine the age of a tree or gain insights into past environmental conditions? Well, that's where dendrochronology comes in. Derived from the Greek words 'dendron' meaning 'tree' and 'chronos' meaning 'time,' dendrochronology is the scientific method of dating and studying past events using tree rings. Today, we'll explore the basics of this technique and its applications in the field of biology.
