Utah State University, the U.S. Forest Service, Brigham Young University, Columbia University, and NOAA-Western Water Assessment all work together to support the Wasatch Dendroclimatology Research (WaDR) group. This organization investigates northern Utah’s climate from over the past 2,000 years by using techniques from the fields of dendrochronology, geography, geology, tree physiology, climatology, and anthropology. By studying the water flow of ancient rivers, the Great Salt Lake, tree rings, and more, the Wasatch Dendroclimatology Research group is able to reconstruct the climate of this area’s history.
