In this work we show the application of dendrochronology as an educational resource for schoolchildren and as a mean to disseminate science to society. Tree rings are popularly known in Chile due to the massive use of wood for construction, handicrafts and firewood. The visible tree rings generate a distinct, tangible and familiar curiosity in many people. “Tree-Rings as a Natural Encyclopedia of Environmental Archives” is an exhibition built as an educational project for schoolchildren, w...

Free, in person and onlineThe stable isotopic compositions of carbon and oxygen (d13C and d18O) measured in tree rings are valuable proxies for reconstructing paleoclimate and are increasingly used as paleophysiological proxies. Applying these proxies in ecophysiology and paleoclimate can be challenging as they rely on complex process-based models and poorly constrained input data. In recent years, h...

Urban greenspaces are also often the most accessible avenue for exposure to the natural environment, providing additional aesthetic, recreati...
