The Yamal data is definitely better than most data sets, at least relative to RCS detrending concerns (as is that of Esper et al., 2012), and also better than the Polar Urals, but other critical concerns remain (as they do for virtually all tree ring studies attempting to estimate relative climatic state variables over centuries).
Our analysis shows, as you allude to, that the RCS tree - ring reconstructions appear to be doing quite well at the low - frequency.
The reconstruction was based on a composite of tree ring annual ring width series from boreal and alpine treeline sites across the northern hemisphere, and made use of a very conservative («RCS») tree - ring standardization procedure designed to preserve as much low - frequency climatic information as possible.
To lose Killian form these pages, like the hundreds of others who have passed though here only to soon disappear forever soon after having packet of peanuts endlessly criticised and ridiculed them here relentlessly (as on other like websites) will be RCs, and readers, and niglej's loss, not Killians.
This issue led Keith Briffa and colleagues to re-introduce some time ago a method known as regional curve standardization (RCS), that attempts to solve this problem by fitting curves to some larger collection of ring series, thereby producing a more robust estimate of the ring response expected for a given tree age.
Note also — as I alluded to in an earlier coment above — that with all of the emphasis on the post-volcanic cooling, many observers are missing an equally important conclusion that we draw in the paper (and mentioned in the press release): that if the models we compared to have things about right, then RCS is doing a remarkably good job of reconstructing the long - term variability.
As I understand what Ed, Keith and Hal Fritts have written at various times about RCS, and from my own limited experience with the method, it is extremely important to have strong replication, and I don't see 50 - 70 samples probably from 25 - 35 trees as a big samplAs I understand what Ed, Keith and Hal Fritts have written at various times about RCS, and from my own limited experience with the method, it is extremely important to have strong replication, and I don't see 50 - 70 samples probably from 25 - 35 trees as a big samplas a big sample.
The authors claim to have largely resolved the «divergence problem» through judicious application of RCS, and in doing so find broad agreement between the instrumental and proxy record during the «entire 20th century warming interval», as stated in the abstract.
As any dendrochronologist can tell you, especially if they have read something about the RCS method, you WILL get bad results when you mix datasets with trees that don't show similar growth patterns.
But in fact, as Hantemirov explains, his application of the RCS (regional curve standardization) method to the larger live core data set now available, gives a result very close to Briffa's, as seen in Hantemirov's graphs below.
Curiously, in this case, the purported justification appears incorrect based on the appearance of the RCS and STD chronologies in Figure 1, in which the RCS chronologies appear to have more low - frequency variability than the STD chronologies (though this could arise from site inhomogeneity as well.)
The RCS series (red) have somewhat more low - frequency variability (but in RCS, such variability can arise from site inhomogeneity as well as temporal change.)
As to reliability of recent increase in tree growth — we have updated our data using many additional subfossil and living trees and using RCS - method.

I'll show that the RCS technique used in the LW2005 MXD chronology eliminated high medieval values as a tautology of their method, not -LSB-...]
I commented similarly over at Deltoid, but then found references to RCS by googling to work Briffa had done as early as 1992.
the Equation (Principle of Aggregate tree Growth) is Additive (Aggregate) not multiplicative, as in the RCS I have been looking at.
Secondly, RCS does not imply that an exponential fit is being used — the Melvin - Briffa paper describes many other ways to fit to the age - dependent growth curve as well as their time - varying spline fit.
There seem to be some pretty clear age - related patterns in the mean residuals plots that may result, possibly, as a result of the inadequacy of the particular growth curve as applied in the RCS process.
As for an example of a documented RCS method not based on an exponential fit, I refer you to the article mentioned by Hu McCulloch earlier:
If the environment is different for the different groups, there should be no surprise that these fits are different, or their ratios to the exponential RCS vary, as I said all the way back in (# 56).
Using this measure removes any RCS mismatching as a possible source of variation while at the same time emulating the calculation of tree indexes or deltas that are used for the series chronology..
Of course, you could fit a fixed form RCS function (the «time - varying» spline would not work here), but then any deviation of the actual growth function of the real trees from the hypothesized one would appear as a false climate «signal» causing a bias in the estimates.
As for an example of a documented RCS method not based on an exponential fit, I refer you to the article mentioned by Hu McCulloch earlier: Melvin, Briffa, Nicolusi, Grabner, «Time - varying - response smoothing» Dendrochronologia, 25 (2007) pp 65 - 6
... two Yamal chronologies, one using RCS (presumably the exponential model Roman describes) and the other using a Spline (presumably as in the Melvin - Briffa 07 paper cited in # 96)... How can these be so different, and which should we prefer?
It is a place to start as it should be directly comparable to the age and climate estimates that spit out of the RCS procedure described above.
If the environment is different for the different groups, there should be no surprise that these fits are differrent, or their ratios to the exponential RCS vary, as I said all the way back in (# 56).
Basically the «test» of RCS in this paper is so limited as to be of no use.
The RCS method of generating expected growth values does not use diameter and as a result produces poor estimates of tree growth rates.
However, as you say (and I'll concede this point), it does provide a graphic example (Jaemtland) of a case where two populations were considered sufficiently dissimilar that RCS should not be done.
This would be a linear declining function without nonrandom attrition and any mixture of underlying negative exponential ring width processes, so this brings home the potential mischief (for homogenous negative exponential RCS) caused by nonrandom attrition... Let me emphasize that I have done everything possible to make this relationship as nonmonotonic as it could possibly be.
Take a look at Esper et al 2003 Figure 8 for an example of Esper rejecting two populations as being not the same and therefore not suitable for RCS (h / t to Tom P).
In order to get a better feel for the Yamal RCS chronology as impacted by the number of tree ring ages involved, I did some counting and graphing of those counts below.
