相对于许多北方地区，南半球的长期仪器或代用气候记录是稀缺的，但对于过去气候变率的全球视角是必不可少的。本文描述了两个首次发表于新西兰斯图尔特岛（47°S，168°E）的红松树轮宽度年表。斯图尔特岛是地球仪上最南端的森林陆地之一。斯图尔特岛中西部（Doughboy-Rakeahua）的年表从1682年延伸到1990年;另一个是斯图尔特岛南部（Pegasus），从1690年到1991年。这两个系列都与新西兰南部和附近地区的暖季地表气温呈正相关。虽然有较短的时间间隔可比温暖，最高的20年增长期在过去300年中发生在20世纪50年代中期至70年代，与新西兰自1950年以来的创纪录变暖相吻合。从两个相关的物种：银松（Lagarostrobus colenobus）从阿豪拉，南岛西部，新西兰，和huon松（Lagarostrobus franklinii）从塔斯马尼亚岛也表明最近的变暖是不寻常的，虽然不是统计上前所未有的，在过去的642和2290年的记录，分别。
Long instrumental or proxy climatic records are scarce for the Southern Hemisphere relative to many northern regions, but are essential for a global perspective of past climate variability. In this paper we describe two tree-ring width chronologies of pink pine which are the first published for Stewart Island, New Zealand (47°S, 168°E), one of the southernmost forested land masses on the globe. A chronology for western-central Stewart Island (Doughboy-Rakeahua) extends from 1682 to 1990; the other, for southern Stewart Island (Pegasus) from 1690 to 1991. Both series are positively correlated with warm-season surface air temperatures for southern New Zealand and vicinity. Although there are shorter intervals of comparable warmth, the highest 20-year periods of growth during the past 300 years occurred during the middle 1950s–1970s, coinciding with record warming since around 1950 in New Zealand. Chronologies developed from two related species: silver pine (Lagarostrobus colensoi) from Ahaura, western South Island, New Zealand, and huon pine (Lagarostrobus franklinii) from Tasmania also indicate recent warming which is unusual, although not statistically unprecedented, within the contexts of the past 642 and 2290 years of record, respectively.
