Shrub ring width datasets for Alnus alnobetula and Salix spp. Sample collection of Alnus alnobetula and Salix spp. was undertaken in the Inuvialuit Settlement region, Northwest Territories, Canada, during field campaigns in 2022, 2023, and 2024. Shrub stems were sampled from both living erect canopy-forming shrubs, and from beaver-browsed stems. This dataset consists of standardised ring width (SRW) growth curves per individual shrub sampled. SRW values result from crossdating and averaging across the section and individual shrub level, following established shrub dendrochronological methods. The shrub ring width measurements are used for dendrochronological chronology formation and crossdating. These data were collected as part of the Beavers and Socio-ecological Resilience in Inuit Nunangat (BARIN) project. Funding was provided by the UK Research and Innovation Canada Inuit Nunangat UK Arctic research programme (CINUK) grant NE/X002578/1.

Radiocarbon dates on Kauri wood from the Late Glacial (Hogg et al 2016) and around Heinrich Event 3 (Turney et al 2016). The radiocarbon dates are on dendrochronological sequences of rings with known age separation and useful for calibration of other radiocarbon dates and looking at geophysical processes.
