Any dendrochronological study involves the establishment of cross-correlations between ring patterns. This is true for chronology extension, dating against floating, or standard chronologies and comparison of chronologies from different areas .... Figure 2 shows a cross-correlation established on the basis of a signature pattern occurring in each of three Irish oak samples. The wide signature ring for the year A.D. 1580 is indicated in each case. 2, record 1, English, - cross%2Ddating

On peut donc, après avoir mesuré l'épaisseur des cernes sous microscope puis établi des diagrammes, comparer les rythmes de croissance d'une série d'échantillons dont on veut vérifier la contemporanéité. Cette opération visant ainsi l'établissement de chronologies relatives, se nomme «synchronisation» ou «interdatation» et est facilitée lorsqu'apparaissent des pics ou dépressions plus systématiquement marqués. 3, record 1, French, - datation%20par%20recoupement

La synchronisation ou datation croisée consiste à identifier dans deux ou plusieurs courbes dendrochronologiques les séquences contemporaines. Cette synchronisation est basée sur un fait d'observation : quand on compare plusieurs courbes, le maximum de ressemblance est généralement atteint lorsqu'on les superpose exactement, années contemporaines sur années contemporaines. Dans ce cas, la plupart des points remarquables (maxima et minima) coïncident, de même que le sens de la variation d'épaisseur entre cernes consécutifs (variation positive ou négative). 4, record 1, French, - datation%20par%20recoupement
