“…Interestingly, in all four rivers we observe clusters of pluvials, but the frequencies of these clusters appearing are different among the tributaries. Episodic floodplain stripping has been documented on the Ping River by a geomorphic and morphostratigraphic analysis by Wasson et al (2021). These events were caused by extreme floods, or clusters of extreme floods, the last being a single flood in 1831, which was recorded in the Thai Royal Palace texts and caused a 60% crop loss in the country.…”

Tree rings, with annual resolution and precise dating, can provide temporally high-resolution proxy records of past climate. However, annually-resolved tree ring data still restrict how tree-ring-based paleoclimate reconstructions can be used in subsequent applications, where finer resolutions are desirable. For example, it is often difficult to compare annual climate reconstructions against historical events, because an event may have happened outside the target season of the reconstruction, or two opposite events (a flood and a drought) may be smoothed out by a reconstruction that targets the annual average (Wise, 2021). In addition, and specific to water resources, annual streamflow reconstructions have provided important insights into surface water availability, but cannot be used directly in water management models which require monthly, weekly, or even daily data (Galelli et al., 2021).How do we obtain subannual climate reconstructions from annual tree rings? Earliest attempts used statistical methods to disaggregate each annual value to multiple subannual ones, assuming a fixed relationship between the two resolutions (
