<span style="font-size: 14px; color: rgb(30, 30, 30); font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Since 1974, the International Tree-Ring Data Bank has served as a permanent repository for tree-ring data that are freely available to all scientists. A team of researchers from four countries recently combed through the 52 million tree growth records in an effort to make the database more useful and accessible. In addition to doing the grunt work of correcting thousands of formatting issues, the team also identified gaps and biases in the records. For example, they note that conifers account for 81 percent of the records, while broadleaf species are poorly represented. Increasing research and sharing in African, Asian, and South American forests, the authors write, will greatly improve the data&#x2019;s ability to answer a wider range of questions.</span><span style="font-size: 16px; font-family: Cambria, Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> </span>
