Now that this is year is one of the wettest on record, at least in the northeast, just how much can we expect tree growth rings to reflect this fact? That is- if it rains twice as much as typical, during the growing season, will that result in a ring twice as wide? Probably not, but I wonder what sort of relationship there is between these 2 variables.
I started thinking about this as I notice the trees in my backyard showing what appear to be greater growth at the top than previous years- especially noticeable on white and pitch pine leaders.
