Working in close collaboration with a number of archaeologists and other scientists, Douglass went on to found the world's first center for dendrochronological analysis, the Laboratory of Tree-Ring Research (LTRR) at the University of Arizona. Today the lab is still going strong and is just one of dozens of facilities around the world dedicated to the analysis of tree rings not just as a dating...
