Tree ring dataset for a regional avalanche chronology in Colorado 1319-2022

Description

This dataset includes processed tree ring data from avalanche paths throughout Colorado, USA. The data were processed in three distinct phases that resulted in this dataset: collection, processing, and avalanche signal analysis.
