The purpose of this study were to analyze the species and tree-ring dates of coffin woods excavated at Yerim site in Yesan, Chungnam, Korea. We sampled 12 pieces of woods from two coffins. The species of all coffin woods were identified as red pine group, most likely, $Pinus$ $densiflora$. The last rings of both coffins were dated A.D. 1557 and A.D. 1601, respectively. The tree-ring dates indicated that the coffins were made in the late 16th and early 17th century.

This study aims to date wooden coffins excavated from graves in Shinnae-dong, Seoul, South Korea, using dendrochronology. The species of woods used to make the coffins were identified as Pinus densiflora S. et Z., one of the major conifers in Korea. Of 12 graves, 10 were successfully dated using various red-pine chronologies of South Korea. Due to the absence of the last-formed tree ring before felling, the number of sapwood rings, used to obtain likely cutting dates, had to be estimated. The terminus post quem for two coffins without plaster frames were AD 1548 and AD 1571, respectively. Eight coffins with plaster frames yielded estimated dates from AD 1664 to AD 1799. The tree-ring dates indicated that the coffins with plaster frames in Shinnae-dong were constructed approximately 100 years later than those without plaster frames.

유역 및 하천지형을 해석하기 위해 이전에는 지형도와 경험에 의존한 연구가 주로 이용되었으나 최근에는 파생되는 많은 자료를 효과적으로 분석하기 위해 GIS와 원격탐사 자료를 사용하는 컴퓨터 시스템이 도입되고 있다. 이 연구는 동강유역을 대상으로 GIS와 원격탐사 기법을 사용하여 유역과 하천지형을 분석하였으며, 또한 연륜 연대학적 방법으로 하상퇴적지의 생성연대를 추정하였다. 따라서 이 연구를 통하여 제작된 하상미지형도, 유역구분도, 하천차수도는 동강보존에 유효한 자료로 사용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

This study was conducted in a long-term experimental forest in the central hardwoods region of southwestern Michigan to retrospectively examine the role of past forest management practices and climate on red oak (Quercus rubra L.) productivity. Initially, in 1971, plots within the experimental forest were treated separately with a clearcut and shelterwood regeneration harvest in an attempt to increase red oak regeneration. From 1987-1989, a new study was initiated within a portion of the clearcut and shelterwood plots to evaluate the effectiveness of additional oak crop tree release using mechanical and chemical applications. Cumulative diameter and mortality rates of 719 red oaks were monitored across the four silvicultural treatments: Clearcut-A (clearcut without additional release treatment), Clearcut-B (clearcut with additional release treatment), Shelterwood-A (shelterwood without additional release), and Shelterwood-B (shelterwood with additional release) plus an untreated control. Increment cores were obtained from red oak trees and neighboring competitor species. Tree-ring analyses (dendrochronology) were applied to examine the effect of these silvicultural treatments and climatic factors (temperature and precipitation) on red oak productivity. The results indicated that crop tree release following a clearcut or shelterwood harvest reduced mortality rates and thus increased survival of red oak. Red oak in control plots or plots only receiving the initial regeneration harvesting treatment and no additional competition release were negatively affected by climatic stress, which included summer moisture stress. In contrast, red oak in plots that received the competition release treatment from shade tolerant tree species not only had higher tree level productivity (i.e., tree basal area) and lower mortality rates, but were also relatively more resilient to climatic stress by showing limited or no associations between climate and growth.

남원 광한루는 본루, 익루, 월랑 등 세 부분으로 구성된 누각이다. 각 부분이 추가되는 형식으로 증축된 것이라고 알려진 광한루의 건축시기를 조사하기 위해 2001~2002년 수리 공사 중에 교체되는 본루, 익루, 월랑의 목부재와 적심재에 대하여 연륜연대를 측정하였다. 본루의 주두, 도리, 적심, 그리고 익루의 중도리, 귀틀 부재가 1624년 늦가을부터 1626년 초봄사이에 벌채된 것으로 밝혀져 본루와 익루의 건축을 위해 같은 기간에 벌채가 이루어졌음을 알 수 있었다. 이는 익루가 1626년 본루의 중건당시 함께 지어졌다는 증거이다. 1879년에 증축된 것으로 알려진 월랑은 연륜연대 측정결과 1881년~1882년에 본루와 익루의 대규모 수리와 함께 건축된 것으로 해석되었다. 그밖에 본루의 사래와 도리받침, 익루의 추녀가 1855년에 벌채된 것으로 나와 1855년에 중수가 있었다는 역사기록과 일치하였다.

Joyangru, which is located in Woodo mountain in Chuncheon, Korea, was a gate tower of Monsogak. There are little historical records about Joyangru except of the 20th-century records. To study about Joyangru history, a dendrochronological analysis was conducted. We identified also the species of woods, We took 87 samples of wood elements for the species analysis and 13 samples for the dendrochronological analysis. We found 78 hard pines(Diploxylon), 4 Douglass-fir, 3 exotic hard pines(Pinus ponderosa type) and 1 Shorea sp.(Dipterocarpaceae). In the dendrochronological analysis, 2 floor flames were dated in 1887 (with complete sapwood) and 2 beams in 1884. We concluded that Joyangru was reconstructed just after 1888, most likely in 1890 together with Monsogak.

The purpose of this study was to identify the species of coffin woods excavated at Mundangdong in Gimcheon and to date this coffin by using tree-ring method. All coffin woods were identified as red pines, most possibly, Pinus densiflora S. et Z. Tree-ring dating provided absolute years of 3 among 19 coffins. Both I-9 and II-22 coffins were estimated to be made in the mid-seventeenth century, and I-65-1 in the mid-sixteenth century. Others possessed too few rings to be dated.

The objective of this study was to date coffin woods of a grave of husband and wife, using the tree rings, which were excavated from Hoamdong, Chungju city in the central area of South Korea. The species of coffin woods was Japanese Red Pine (Pinus densiflora S. et Z.), one of the major conifers growing in Korea. The husband coffin was dated as A.D. 1628. Due to the absence of bark in the wife's coffin, the number of sapwood rings was estimated to obtain the cutting date. The cutting date of wife's one was estimated to be A.D. 1651${\pm}$10. The Jeogori Jacket for women, which was found in the husband coffin, indicates that the husband died earlier than the wife, as the tree-ring dates suggested.

Kangrung is a royal tomb for King Myoungjong and his wife, Queen Jeongsun. According the record, Myoungjong died on 1567 and was buried in the present location at Gongrungdong, Nowonku, Seoul. During the 2006 repair for the Jeongjagak (memorial hall) and Bigak (tombs' house) of Kangrung, a dendrochronological analysis had been conducted. We took 79 samples, 74 from Jeongjagak and 5 from Bigak, respectively, for dating. There were three major cutting groups, i.e., 1692-1694, 1737, and 1859-1861. The first group was well matched with the date of reconstruction, which was written on the 'Sangryangmun', a formal record about building activities. The tree-ring results confirmed that the present buildings of Jeongjagak and Bigak in Kangrung were reconstructed in 1695. The second and third cutting groups indicated major repairs in Bigak.

This paper reports the application of radiocarbon wiggle matching for Korean wooden artifacts such as furniture and Buddhist statues for precise dating. Ten biannual samples of 20 years (AD 1249-1268) for AMS (accelerator mass spectrometry) radiocarbon measurements were prepared from a board of the pedestal for Buddhist statue at Jeongsusa (temple) in Kangwhado, Korea, which was dendrochronologically dated. The average 95.4% confidence interval of radiocarbon dating without wiggle matching was 123 year. When wiggle matching technique was applied, it became 37 year, 3.3 times smaller than that without wiggle matching. The results indicated that wiggle matching technique using the calibration curve for northern hemisphere (IntCal04: International radiocarbon calibration curve announced in 2004) can produce precise dates for Korean wooden artifacts which possess as much as 20 tree rings.
