“I have no idea what you mean here. BEST doesn’t use any tree ring records. All it uses is actual, measured temperatures.”
About the tree-ring density vs width data sets, someone had a link to BEST’s data set listing, and about 3 were density and the rest were width. It was on BEST’s web site. It’s been a while since I went there, but that is what I saw. I was in a great discussion about tree-rings then, and wanted to see which were used how much. And they were there, listed as dendro such and such, all in one section.
Ah! Here it is! http://tiny.cc/ia634
Does that answer the question?
