Quarter sawing : This sawing method produces edge-grain or vertical grain lumber, in which annual growth rings run more consistently perpendicular to the pieces'wider faces.
12.
Counting of annual growth rings can be used to determine the age of a perennial herb similarly as it is done in trees using dendrochronology.
13.
The width of annual growth rings depends on conditions during formation; in a favorable year it is wider and in a less favorable year narrower.
14.
The reaction wood formed by this process can be studied using dendrochronology using annual growth rings to determine when the tree was subjected to tilting.
15.
Chris Carter was inspired to write this episode based on an interest in dendrochronology, a subject that involves analyzing annual growth rings found in non-tropical tree species.
16.
The age of a whale can be reliably gathered by examining the ear plug in the head of the dead animal, which accumulates as annual growth rings.
17.
The "'divergence problem "'is an anomaly from the field of dendroclimatology, the study of past climate through observations of old trees, primarily the properties of their annual growth rings.
18.
These include chemical evidence of climatic change contained in tiny marine fossils, corals and ancient ice, along with fossilized pollen in lake sediments and annual growth rings in trees.
19.
Removing a red snapper otolith ( ear bone ) : Their age can be determined by counting annual growth rings on their otoliths, similar to counting growth rings in trees.
20.
"Mitchell's Rule " states : " If there are tree stumps or felled trunks nearby, count the annual growth rings and measure the trunk circumference to find local growth rates ".
