Abstract

ABSTRACT Modification of forest trees can occur from a variety of factors. Both cultural and natural processes can injure trees and many injuries can be dated dendrochronologically. Distinguishing between types of injuries, however, is important for understanding past human land-use practices and delineating different activities or processes that impact the forest. In the Zuni Mountains of New Mexico, USA, we have identified trees intentionally peeled for their cambial layer and unintentionally damaged trees whose scars resemble cambium-peeled trees. Both detailed attribute recording and dendrochronological dating were used to identify past exploitation of this ponderosa pine forest.

文化改良的树木:美国新墨西哥州祖尼山脉的剥皮和伤痕累累的黄松

森林树木的变异可以由多种因素引起。文化和自然过程都可能伤害树木，许多伤害可以通过树木年代学来确定。然而，区分不同类型的伤害对于了解过去人类土地利用做法和描绘影响森林的不同活动或过程非常重要。在美国新墨西哥州的祖尼山脉，我们发现了有意剥离形成层的树木和无意损坏的树木，其疤痕类似于形成层剥离的树木。利用详细的属性记录和树木年代学对该黄松林的开发进行了鉴定。

期刊介绍： Tree-Ring Research (TRR) is devoted to papers dealing with the growth rings of trees and the applications of tree-ring research in a wide variety of fields, including but not limited to archaeology, geology, ecology, hydrology, climatology, forestry, and botany. Papers involving research results, new techniques of data acquisition or analysis, and regional or subject-oriented reviews or syntheses are considered for publication. Scientific papers usually fall into two main categories. Articles should not exceed 5000 words, or approximately 20 double-spaced typewritten pages, including tables, references, and an abstract of 200 words or fewer. All manuscripts submitted as Articles are reviewed by at least two referees. Research Reports, which are usually reviewed by at least one outside referee, should not exceed 1500 words or include more than two figures. Research Reports address technical developments, describe well-documented but preliminary research results, or present findings for which the Article format is not appropriate. Book or monograph Reviews of 500 words or less are also considered. Other categories of papers are occasionally published. All papers are published only in English. Abstracts of the Articles or Reports may be printed in other languages if supplied by the author(s) with English translations.
