Modern trees are not just witnesses to growing contemporary threats but also legacies of past human activity. Here, we review the use of dendrochronology, radiocarbon analysis, stable isotope analysis, and DNA analysis to examine ancient tree management.

studying trees as time capsules of broader natural and historical processes has expanded. Here, we explore some of the key methods that are currently available for exploring‘tree history’, including dendrochronology, radiocarbon dating, stable isotope analysis, and genetic analysis.
