This workshop-- AmeriDendro 2013, to be held in Tucson, Arizona, in May 2013-- focuses on dendrochronology in both North and South America, and will cover more than a dozen topics ranging from tree-ring formation, fire ecology, and dendroclimatology to dendrogeomorphology, New- and Old-World archaeology, and tree-ring networks. The meeting will be hosted by the Laboratory of Tree-Ring Research at the University of Arizona. Over 200 scientists from North and South America, Europe, Asia and Africa will present results of their research. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Funding supports student participation in the workshop.
