From the text ... 'The tree-ring community has successfully overcome the data archiving hurdles that Sue Silver discussed in her September 2003 editorial. We have developed two public data banks that are models of international coopertion in ecological data archiving and sharing. Dendro-chronology and its related subfields (er dendroecology and dendroclimatology) have provided essential data for elucidating the spatial and temporal aspects of physical and biological processes such as climate and fire, that operate at annual to contennial time scales. Thousands of tree-ring chronologies have been developed by nearly one thousand dendrochronologists worldwide.' © The Ecological Society of America.
