除了揭示树木自身的年龄,年轮还能告诉我们哪些信息?国际知名树木年轮科学家瓦莱丽·特鲁埃通过16个有趣的故事带我们走进这一20世纪初才成立的学科。原来,树木的年轮同样默默记录着这个星球的气候变迁。那一圈圈的印迹,忠实地记录了光照、水分、温度等环境和气候等外界因素对树木生长的影响,甚至重大的灾变事件也能在年轮中体现出来,比如飓风、地震、火山爆发,等等。可以说,树木年轮是一部地球气候“年鉴”。从海盗黄金时代的缘起,到成吉思汗称霸欧亚的秘诀,再到罗马帝国衰落的隐秘原因,以及玛雅文明的离奇消失,特鲁埃用树轮年代学的研究新知阐明了看似简单的树木年轮在过去两千年的人类文明中所发挥的关键作用。树木与人类的关联之紧密,远远超出了我们的想象。通过特鲁埃的讲述,我们将体悟到树木年轮如何反映人类社会过往的历史动荡,又会怎样帮助我们解决未来的环境难题。
