Tree ring dataset for a regional avalanche chronology in southeast Alaska, 1396 - 2019

Description

This dataset includes processed tree ring data from avalanche paths in southeast Alaska, USA. The data were processed in three distinct phases that resulted in this dataset: collection, processing, and avalanche signal analysis. This dataset consists of samples from 434 cross sections from 426 unique trees throughout six avalanche paths in the study region. This resulted in 2706 identified growth disturbances (GDs) due to avalanches.
