Late summer temperature variability for the Southern Rocky Mountains (USA) since 1735 CE: applying blue light intensity to low-latitude Picea engelmannii Parry ex Engelm

Our study examines the application of using blue intensity (BI) methods to develop a late summer maximum temperature ( T max ) reconstruction for the Southern Rocky Mountains—a mid-latitude (i.e., 36° N), arid region in North America. We reconstruct August–September (AS) T max for the period 1735–20...
