The authors examine the effects of latitude and life history on the timing of relationships between satellite measures of normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) and ground-based measures of tree-ring width in forests at mid- and high latitudes in the Northern Hemisphere. Results indicate a correlation between NDVI and tree rings over the entire growing season for all areas analyzed. For sites south of 40°N, a correlation appears in early spring and late fall while a correlation appears during summer months north of 40°N. For conifers, the correlation appears in summer while deciduous trees show the
