Fig. A1. Map of black spruce study sites in Interior Alaska. The sites are spread through the Tanana River valley of Interior Alaska, which is bordered by the Alaska Range to the South and the Brooks Range to the North. The furthest pair of sites are 208 km apart. The US–Canada border is shown by the line on the east edge of the map area, while Mount McKinley is just beyond the southwest corner.
