“…Dendrochronology is a science that studies the formation of growth rings in plant species. The formation of these rings can be influenced by climatic, physical, genetic and/or anthropic events, such as precipitation, temperature, frequency of floodings, prolonged drought, soil quality, species deciduousness, and types of forest management (WORBES et al, 2003;LISI, et al, 2008;SOUTHWORT et al, 2013;LATORRACA et al, 2015;MATTOS et al, 2015;LATORRACA, 2016;FIGUEIREDO FILHO et al, 2017). Thus, growth rings can provide information on past and present environmental conditions (SOUTHWORT et al, 2013;FIGUEIREDO FILHO et al, 2017).…”
